If Trump wins, he gets four more years of chaos, If Sanders wins, Trump declares that the election was rigged and refuses to leave, triggering an unknown period of even more chaos. Win-win for Putin either way. Wouldn't be surprised if they fed the information about the "helping Sanders" to the IC to head us down this path, and then leaked it.

It all makes perfect sense, you just have to see from Russia's perspective. We helped the dismantling of the Soviet Union, where Putin was happy in the KGB. He, and they, want revenge and want to dismantle us. A compromised GOP and a divided Democratic Party is exactly their goal.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
