The horrifying REAL reason Putin played the Trump card.

All these theories of Trump's connections to Putin, Russian business dealings, Russian election manipulation, and Russian blackmail plots against Trump are largely irrelevant.

Lets look at the FACTS. Russia and Putin CLEARLY support a Trump presidency. Lets say it again..., Putin's top analysts in the many Russian spy agencies who analyze USA politics, policy and strategies HAVE ENDORSED Trump. Just to be on the safe side, lets say it one more time... Russia's equivalent of NSA, CIA, DIA, etc., have through analysis, endorsed a Trump presidency.

Lets face facts... Brotherhood between the nations of Russia and USA that benefit both parties makes good sense. But lets face facts again. Unfortunately, being cold war enemies for so long, our nations are mutually cautious of each other's ideologies and intent. So when Russian or American spy agencies produce intelligence analysis, they aren't usually basing it on the assumption of "brotherhood".

If a brotherhood of countries is not the reason that Russian intelligence supports unambiguously a Trump presidency, then what are the motivations? Blackmail control of Trump? The hope they can use Trump's business connections/past-history to manipulate him? NOPE.

I am sorry to report that there is reasonable probability that Russian foreign intelligence asserted a pro-Trump policy based on an in-depth assessment of Trump's personality. Narcissistic Psychosis, the tangible signs of which Trump manifests on many visible levels, is a seriously debilitating psychological state. The primary suffering of those under the influence of a narcissistic psychotic is a natural outcome of this mental illness.

I HOPE I AM BEING VERY CLEAR WHEN I SAY RUSSIA'S SUPPORT OF TRUMP MAY BE BASED SOLEY UPON THEIR ANALYSIS THAT TRUMP'S MENTAL STATE MAY LEAD TO THE FUTURE INSTABILITY AND DEMISE OF AN ENEMY...AMERICA.

That one I don't need to repeat.

I have never stood for either party. I am simply stating, among many illogical conspiracy theories regarding Trump and Russia, an analysis and theory that actually makes perfect sense based upon our long-standing relationship with Russia. Putin is a strong and sly fox. I do hope we can be brother nations... I believe the world needs solutions to the madness of the elitist globalists. I just don't see how current Russian policy could be shaped by such naïve ambition as to assume "brotherhood between nations" simply because of Trump.

Based upon Russian analysis of Trump's mental condition, Trump is the perfect pawn to take down America. So says the highest intelligence analysts of Putin's Russia.

HAVE AT IT.

Trump cannot take America down.

No matter how much he tries to.

Shouldn't there be a poll first?

Or perhaps ask him?

This is true.
We have been duped once again.
Well, some of us knew all along and tried to stop the insanity from spreading.

You do know that countries have been using Russia to label an enemy to unite people for causes or agenda for centuries right? Usually doesn't turn out to well.

They're crippled economicly right now and any involvement they had was to make Americans question the system (rightfully so). And anyone who feeds this helps their agenda.

a reply to: jayfkntee

This was actually my first assumption from the start.

Does anyone really think Russia wants to be buddies with the U.S. on the world stage?? That's just ridiculous. They may not want to be enemies but they certainly don't want to share the throne.

Putin isn't looking for someone in the U.S. to have a slumber party and pillow fight with. They would love o see the U.S. crumble as it would leave them as the dominate world power.

Besides your post being accurate, it's also disingenuous of you.

Years ago I remember reminding you that people care about your opinion here. It's an unwanted reality, but it is.

Anyone who watched the inauguration would see Trump didn't display any narcissistic tendency. Aside from all other video evidence contrary to the OP, seeing how Trump was actually a little impatient about all the glorifying of himself through ceremony, promptly let the People know the inauguration was about us.

But if words aren't enough, go watch again.

A narcissist would revel in glory. Trumo was literally rocking back and forth during the ceremony.

Go look.

He didn't and doesn't want glory or pomp. He sees the next four years as a job.

Trump is EMPLOYED for the first time ever.

Phage, you could disagree with me, but you should reveal less bias. It doesn't suit you.

a reply to: TarzanBeta

Yeah. Well, this thread isn't about me. Is it?

a reply to: jayfkntee

You may be right, but I have to disagree that this is the real reason. It is a possibility.

I could argue that why would you place an enemy in power, that has psychotic tendencies, that is able to launch a nuclear war? Do you really believe that Russia would want that?

If I may, I would like to put forth an alternate theory. What if Putin just thought he could get along better with Trump, than with Hillary. That would seem to be the simplest answer, to me anyway.

What an inane premise for a thread. You do realize there's a system of checks and balances put into place through the amendment process that allows Trump to be removed from office if he starts outwardly displaying symptoms of a debilitating mental illness don't you? In fact you could be removed in one day. It's as simple as that. If that happens Pence becomes president. I'm sure Russia thought all this out beforehand. I'm sure they realize that Pence is not the guy they want with the finger on the trigger. Sorry to put it into your idea but I just don't see it

a reply to: 3daysgone

Because he knows Trump won't do that with Russia because he likes Russia and he likes Putin!! He's not going to nuke them. He's already saying he's going lift sanctions on them and back out of NATO Alliances which would further free up Russia to do whatever it wants.

Obviously.

But having a congress didn't stop the far-right from wailing for years that Obama was going to single-handedly ignore congress and do whatever TF he wanted without resistance. Like enacting martial law and not vacating The Chair.

People believe what they want, and in this case, it's that "congress is just for looks, the pres does what he wants!"

On topic, I will say that my intuition says he's playing into someone's hands like putty. Putin's is likely. There's room for manipulation, there always is in any political position.

However, the more inexperienced someone is, the more likely they are to be played worse than the people they played to get to their cushy spot. Whole different ballgame at the top of that ladder. His ego is going to lead him into a false sense of economic security, I'll bet on that. It's any country's baseball bat to the knees. We'll be the ones paying dearly for the untouchable & invulnerable attitude he has.

a reply to: jayfkntee

It makes no sense.

If Trump were like some agent of Russia, he would be careful to choose cabinet members who are not Hawkish toward Russia:

Trump cabinet is actually Hawkish on Russia despite Trump's views

It's hard to top barfing on a foreign head of state, or Dubya's Bushisms. That bar was awful high for Jeb already.

a reply to: mOjOm

That could very well be what Putin is thinking, but is it? Another possibility. Maybe he just really wants all the sanctions to be dropped because he loves his country too. Maybe not, but still a possibility.
