I'm supposed to be swayed by a hypothetical? Also, its pretty clear Putin supports trump. He said it explicitly in Helsinki. If he tried to swing the 2016 primary it wasn't because he liked Bernie. Its well known that Putin absolutely abhorred Hillary and preferred most anybody, including Bernie, to her.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
