I like that song at the end. Catchy beat.
However all kidding aside this piece brings up quite a number of troubling points.
Which now hopefully even those who are not political junkies are trying to absorb.
And on that topic there is also this report that Russia is compiling a dossier to help them understand exactly who they helped to get elected:
A dossier on Donald Trump's psychological makeup is being prepared for Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Among its preliminary conclusions is that the new American leader is a risk-taker who can be naïve, according to a senior Kremlin adviser.
Talk about an understatement.
Apparently there is also some concern that Trump is even more unhinged than the Kremlin previously believed.
Putin's government is growing increasingly concerned about Trump's battles in Washington, according to Fedorov and former lawmaker Sergei Markov, who remains well-connected at the Kremlin.
It is worried the president will not have the political power to improve relations with Russia, as he has indicated he might try to do, and even, perhaps, lift some U.S. sanctions.
And seriously this is really ALL ABOUT removing those sanctions.
Everything else is just background noise.
The pretense for the dossier is that Putin wishes to better understand Trump before their first official meeting face to face. (Though we have to imagine they have already privately met a number of times.) However it will also strengthen Putin's ability to continue pulling Trump's strings and getting him to do what they got him elected to do.
