You must watch this: Putin's Revenge. PBS/Frontline

It puts a lot of things in perspective. This is only part one, part two will be aired on PBS on Wed, Nov 1. It's absolutely chilling.

This episode is just under an hour, but I would love to know what people think. It's like Trump ripped a page out of his playbook.

This was very well done and shows us what we are up against. Putin has a nursed a long resentment against the US and he is determined to get revenge. He saw that opportunity through Trump and the republicans. This documentary makes his motive very obvious.

Putin's playbook. It is so obvious. There is no doubt that Trump models himself after Putin.
