Lawrence: 'Profoundly Stupid' Trump Admits He Wanted To Steal Election - The Last Word - MSNBC

14. Given how the KGB works, I think initially it might have been a lark for him.

He didn't think he would win. And he didn't realize he was being manipulated by Putin and the Russian oligarchs.

He is not smart enough to realize what is really going on. And he loves flattery, money and attention. So he is the perfect KGB target.

But then I think he quickly learned he was invincible for some reason (Putin tampering with polls and votes, social media propaganda, etc.) and that he might win. Then he was totally onboard.

When the KGB and CIA are first developing an asset they often play it cool. Manipulate the target for awhile, and keep working until the target is in too deep to get away. Trump would be very easy to target and flip. And it is quite possible Melania is a part of all of this.

Yes I agree totally that there is oligarch dark money coming Trump's way. And other US KGB assets are helping him. Yes I believe Trump truly believes he can get away with civil insurrection.
