Very keen observation.
It appears supporters of both Billionaire autocrats have something in common, that runs deep and cannot be helped.
Trump and Putin supporters have strong daddy will-fix-and-make-everything-better fixation, which blinds them to uncomfortable facts and reasoning.
Proving yet again -
Republicans are stupid, and Democrats are evil.
RE: “KGB Putin is pulling for Trump too, as are most if not all of the FR Putinistas (naturally).”
The Putinistas want Trump in because of his fondness and trust of KGB/FSB Putin, and his acceptance of Putin's expansionism into the Middle East. Putin is on a mission to basically restore the Russian empire (and then-some), and Trump appears to be fully on-board with it.
