1) Trump just have a wink and a nod for Russia to invade NATO nations

2) Russia is controlled by billionaire oligarchs and they want a similarly minded person running the US.

This isn't Hillary fault, but this is incompetence. The new guy Bill picked can hopefully be fair to all and do well in the 2018 midterms. DWS had to go.

They've been fooled into thinking they're attacking Democrats when what they're really doing is helping Putin. AND they're too stupid to realize it.

Who knows how many 'fun parties' in Russia those wealthy playboys attended-with a camera close by to record everything. Those beauty contests alone attracted thousands of young girls.

Neither of them are men who like being told "no" for anything. I wondered why trump let go of his beauty contest businesses so quickly and never could complete his trump tower over there.

Perhaps they're frenemies-forever.
