Useful idiot Trump will learn just how expendable he is to his tovarich once Russia has what it wants. Now the big question is what exactly Putin does want from Trump?

They wouldn't care if Trump were indicted or impeached. Their goal all along has been to de-stabilize American democracy and to call its legitimacy into question in the minds of the electorate. They would have been ok with Russia if Clinton had won because every Trump supporter would have believed the election had been stolen.

I hate to be the bearer of bad tidings, but we've been doing the same thing abroad for 60 years. Not by hacking computers but by spreading disinformation, bribing newspapers and politicians to attack the government, funding the opposition and spreading false rumors.
