Missing from the national dialogue---why does Putin need a Trump puppet? Why did he hack the RNC and keep their data private so he could secretly blackmail them while turning the Democratic data over to the world? What does Putin need so badly?
In case any of you do not follow the economic news, Russia’s economy is dependent upon oil and gas. And oil and gas are low.

What does that mean for the US.? Trump will almost certainly go to war with Iran. And his hostile gesture toward China may be the opening salvo in a South China Sea War. Unthinkable? Why? No Russian lives will be lost. The Russian national debt will not rise. When the US embargoes the shipping of fuel to China via the South China Sea, Putin can secretly sell China energy at an inflated cost. And weapons. While pretending to BFFs with Trump and the GOP.
Manufacturing (jobs), transportation, retail, housing will all suffer as they did under W. with his artificially high priced oil. The nation debt will sky rocket. Dissent will be suppressed in the name of national security. A whole bunch of us will lose our jobs/careers/freedom when Newt gets finished with his HUAC Hearings. Our servicemen and women will die and be maimed—and come home to voucher care.
Anyone American who can look at our new leader, Putin and feel all warm and fuzzy because he is WHITE (“Like me!”) and MALE and CHRISTIAN and HATES GAYS, is delusional and deserves whatever the future brings.
The rest of us, I feel sorry for, because unless a few more big players—like the Pentagon and the Democratic State governors and all our presidents, sitting as well as former and every member of the Supreme Court and business leaders and a hell of lot of patriotic Republicans---join the Press and the Democrats in Congress in giving a big “Hell no, not over my dead body!” shout out---we are seriously doomed. Because why shouldn’t Putin have Trump raid Social Security and Medicare? Putin doesn’t need our votes in 2018.
