I hope you’re aware that Trump is a Putin fan.

Not really; he said that Putin is strong leader and that we don’t have one.
We have no virgin births or immaculate conceptions here to play with here on earth.
After we look at everyone with all flaws and strengths taken into account, we need to handicap our horse races with godliness. I suggest using grace as a principle. If we CAN look at something in a GOOD way and we have no further definitive information, DO look at it in a GOOD way. (There are some virtues in the Putin situation; e.g. he’s managed to unite a country. Trump never issued a blanket endorsement. That is what binary thinkers seem to require to be implied.)
However, heading for a trap is not something that can be viewed from a good angle except it takes the person on a different trajectory.
