The Russians favored whom?

@jon-nyc said in The Russians favored whom?:

Trump fans don’t want to think to hard about why Putin favored Trump, as they aren’t deluded enough to think that Putin wants America to be great again.

IOW, the report at the CIA IG was wrong, is that your point?

The only thing with these type of reports is for it to be true, it seems like 99% of the people in the US government are in on some conspiracy against President Trump, and of the 99%, not one of them is ethical enough to say something.

I realize that I am talking about government people, but I am an optimist and think that there are still good people there.

(PS I am not a big conspiracy believer of almost any kind.. In todays world, where anybody is willing to go on any TV show to talk about anything for a few dollars, it is amazing that all these secrets could be kept secret. LOL)

Using the notion of consider the source I would want to hear from someone other than Fred.

Or Putin was putting the useful idiots of the left to work, anticipating their petulant, culturally destructive social tantrum in response to a President Trump.

Have we seen it yet?

Did you read the Meuller report? It was extraordinarily detailed.

My personal favorite was”Russian Agent”.

I suspect he preferred Trump to Clinton because he thought Clinton would be tougher on Russia. If so I think he was right. Trump is hardly a warmonger. War is expensive.

I suspect he also enjoys seeing Americans at each others' throats over relatively minor issues. We continue to indulge him.

[jon-nyc]

Clinton was known to be on the hawkish side of Syria intervention and privately critical of Obama on the subject. Zero chance Putin didn’t know that, zero chance it wasn’t a factor.

[Mik]

That was a known issue, yes.

@George-K Spy in Putin's office Given his proximity to Putin, I've thought we should have a good way to know Putin's intentions regarding the election. I assumed this was part of the reason for the Senate's confidence in their finding that Russia had worked to support Trump's Presidency. Some of the talk for the reason he was extricated from Russia was that they were concerned that someone would blurt out information which would draw attention to his activities.
