So now we’re back to Russia is going to interfere in the election to help Trump? Or perhaps it never really left us? Democrats just refuse to let this trope go.
And only one person can truly be smiling over this: Russian President Vladimir Putin.
But there’s a gigantic flaw in the latest whip-up. Does anyone really think Putin wants Trump instead of Bernie Sanders? Anyone?
Trump has completely blocked Putin’s expansionist ambitions after Russian ran wild under Obama in Crimea, Ukraine and Syria, and undermined their oil economy with the success of fracking and natural gas. Meanwhile, Sanders is an unrepentant Communist (as is Putin) because he has never, ever disavowed his fawning support for the Soviet Union, Cuba, Nicaragua and Venezuela and holds to their underlying socialist principles. And for good measure, he wants to ban all fracking, which would be a huge benefit for Russia.
Here’s a guess what’s going on — but a guess that is completely plausible and in line with facts and history: Russia and the old Soviet Union have long interfered in American elections, and we know from the opened Soviet-era archives that the top goal was not always who won, but was to sow distrust in elections and discord among the American people.
I think we can agree they accomplished that goal in spades in 2016 with their useful idiots (an old Soviet term from the Lenin-Stalin era for Western leftist sympathisers, like Sanders) in the media and Democratic party.
And so now, if the goal is to sow distrust and discord, as an old Soviet KGB guy like Putin would want to do, then the best way to accomplish that after learning from the successes of 2016, would be make sure that American intelligence was aware that Russia was going to try to help Trump “again.” It would have to get out. The Russians may even try to plant the idea that Trump administration officials are working with them to further stir the pot of distrust from American to American.
This works on so many levels because the media and Democrats will run with it like foxes with their tails on fire and after 2020. They’ll spread it and spread it until the country is aflame again. And we will have four more years of investigations and accusations and “leaks” to the New York Times.
The only real problem is that no sane people — so we all know who that is ruling out — believes that Putin actually wants the guy that has armed his enemies in Ukraine and killed his troops in Syria to win in November. That would be Donald Trump, for those of you who only read the mainstream media. Putin would much rather have the full-on anti-American Communist sympathizer Bernie Sanders.
Of course all this is useful in setting the stage for impeachment and investigations if Trump wins re-election, which the odds are at this point that he will. Ironically, the same people who have worked to undo the 2016 election for more than three years and will do so again, managed to claim in the same breath that Trump is the one who is an existential threat to democracy.
Here we go again. Trump put heavy sanctions on Putin, ruined his little pipeline and has countered the little dictator at every turn. Putin probably hates Trump! Damn Democrats/media will spin it the total opposite.
Who in a sane mind believes Sanders might win? And of course nobody in Russia is sympathetic to Trump anymore. Last time everybody liked him because he was an alternative to Hillary and everybody hated her.
It would be correct to say that right now Russia doesn’t give a crap over who the American president would be.
What happened to the $$$Millions Putin payed Slick Willy and the fake Clinton Foundation for his 5 minutes speeches in Moscow? Putin wanted Hitlery and put $$$Millions into the 2016 race. Plus gave Slick his choice of Russian Hookers.
No way Putin wants President Trump to be re-elected.
Did you notice in every news report no one goes on to says HOW Russia is meddling in our election. What are they going to buy some Facebook ads again? OMG
This is all so the Dems can say we do not accept the result.
Zactly. HOW?
This is really simple.
Russia is a gas station. Trump is in the business of opening new gas stations on every corner, backed up by his own exploration and production infrastructure.
Why should Russia support him?
I sent this to Rush today, as he’s been talking about the “Russia Interference” nonsense again:

Hi, Rush,
I am surprised the Libs have not figured this out. Or, maybe they have, but just are not saying:
Outside of the WOT, there is one other area of common ground for Presidents Putin and Trump: Both @ present strongly espouse conservative Christianity.
I’m sure you can have fun with this. (Wink, wink.)
The Leftist media is trying desperately to buoy the hopes of their fading faithful.
This is all about keeping hope on the left alive. Everyone knows it’s garbage just like Hillary’s excuses for losing to the lunatic Trump.
Nobody believes Putin wants Trump to win. Four more years of Trump is his worst nightmare. The oil industry is sucking air in Russia.
Anyone who thinks there was every ANY Trump/Putin collusion is just another useful idiot for the Russians/Ukranians/dems.
The only thing I like about the belief that President Trump was elected because of Russia is that they are, in effect, calling Robert Mueller and the rest of the criminal-coup clown-college they called “investigators” LIARS. Or completely incompetent. OR BOTH!

Here’s the question that will stop any liberal in their tracks about Russia, Russia, Russia:
What actions specifically in 3 years has Trump taken that benefit Putin?
