Had to paraphrase what Preet Bharara tweeted this evening to fit the subject line.

Here's the full tweet:

Hypothetically, if you were simultaneously the President and compromised by Russia, what more would you have done today to please the Kremlin?

[bitterross]

1. Not a damn thing. /nt

[greatauntoftriplets]

2. It's his Christmas gift to Vlad.

[Cha]

3. Without letting anyone in on it.. just

do putin's bidding like the Siberian Candidate he is.

[rockfordfile]

8. You really think he didn't tell anyone else?

[BigmanPigman]

4. I love him...He doesn't mince words.

No wonder the fucking moron gave him the ax ASAP. He was on CNN earlier and I stopped what I was doing (like E F Hutton commercials) to listen to him...smart man.

5. Without getting on your knees? Not much.

Although, he could cancel the sanctions.

[AlexSFCA]

12. cant cancel act of congress

sanctions were passed with veto proof majority.

[RainCaster]

14. That must really twist up his undies

[Hermit-The-Prog]

16. not so much

He has defied the laws he is duty- and oath-bound to execute.

See, for example:

6. give Alaska back? LOL

[Bob Loblaw]

7. Oh shit

I hope Trump doesn't read DU.

Of course I'm joking. I know he doesn't read.

[snort]

9. Sarah Palin:

"Told you so".

[flamingdem]

10. Don't give him any ideas!

[TimeToGo]

11. Yes

[DoctorJoJo]

13. Maybe Another BJ??

[ffr]

15. Lots of GOP bluster, but not a peep to curb Individual-1, a Russian asset, by Ryan/McConnell

History will record their legacy as complicit traitors.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

17. depends on who writes that history, and in what language

[lindysalsagal]

18. Invade Ukraine, dismantle NATO and our military, tank our

Economy, pollute everything, dissolve democracy.

He's off to a great start. As far as Putin's concerned.
