You would think so but it’s not always the case. That aside, let’s think about the possibilities here.
If Putin wanted Candidate Trump to win, then how might he be of assistance? I’d say realeasing the filth in her emails might do it. You know the collusion between the DNC and Hillary against Sanders, Uranium deal, etc etc.
Now if he wanted Clinton to win, then how might he do it? Perhaps the release of information through a source that the FBI trust suggesting connections with and through Trumps team. You know, like their meeting in Trump tower, their foreign interest with their businesses, etc etc.
Now ask yourselves, who wins in either situation? Putin! He wins in three ways. First, by totally disrupting our election through the manipulation of not only our candidates but through the distrust of the citizenry. Second, the influence over whoever won for fear of being exposed of their wrongdoing. Then there’s the third win, which ends with an impeachment if proved to have knowingly worked with the Russians to win.
So what happened? He would never expect the elected President to allow a Special Counsel to be appointed but alas it happened and it seems the cht is slowly but surely being found.
Just imagine!
