tRump* wasn't The Manchurian Candidate, he was The Siberian Candidate, and, I believe, an FSB/KGB asset. I believe the fake news, the bot-nets, the election malfeasance was all part of a sophisticated, synchronous plan to install tRump* as POTUS.

The celebrating seen in Moscow on election night was indeed because tRump* had won, but more importantly the entire machine as-a-whole functioned well enough to yield a win.
