This is precipitating a hugely divisive moment. But something to consider....


What if this guy is dropping a Putin bomb on us? Independent of Trump, cuz he really wants to get a civil war started in the USA?

While he consolidates power in Russia by changing their constitution and becoming president for life, he has unleashed chaos by ensuring our country is completely destabilized.

That is also why the video of Putin and Assad mocking Trump emerged yesterday.

Ratfucking is a republican specialty. But the bombs this guy is dropping are devastating, regardless. The Senate can't run from witnesses now.

1) He is a wannabe that got in over his head and got used by Trump thugs because of his association with a country. Now he is flailing as he tries to save his ass.

2) He is a sophisticated Russian operative that knows exactly what he is doing and where he wants to take it. He has orders and every move that he makes is in accordance with those orders.
