Some White House officials worry that Russian president Vladimir Putin, who has held several calls with Trump, plays on the presidents inexperience and lack of detailed knowledge about issues while stoking Trumps grievances, the Washington Post reports.
The Russian president complains to Trump about fake news and laments that the U.S. foreign policy establishment the deep state, in Putins words is conspiring against them, the first senior U.S. official said.
Putin has told Trump: Its not us. Its the subordinates fighting against our friendship.

(22,976 posts)By now, anyone who doesnt acknowledge that we're getting seriously fucked, is utterly lost, in some kind of trance. Sorry for the rough language, but this is deadly serious. The U.S. has been under attack, and a soft coup (not so soft now) has taken place. Americans shared history, tradition, protocol, have all been turned on their heads. A deeper resentment is growing between liberals and conservatives (those terms seem quaint now). If its allowed to fester...I cant finish this sentence, I dont want to go there.
Which is exactly what Putin wants, and about which the Trump team have conspired: flood the media with so much outrageous crap, until the citizenry is staggering under the weight of it, dumbfounded and exhausted.
