1. "You know what? Putin's fine. He's fine."

"The man has very strong control over a country."

3. You know, I have to wonder what Trump would think/do if Putin were somehow violently overthrown

(just projecting a hypothetical, any lurking trolls, not plotting)

Would Trump's paranoia finally do him in? Would he retreat to Cheney's "undisclosed" bunker location?

Just pondering...

10. He'd try to stage some 9/11-style incident

And probably with Bibi's help.

Count on it (they may be plotting, or at least mulling, the very thing already).

12. Great question, and to add to it, what would our military and intelligence agencies do?

I am very worried about our military (high ranks) being bought, so I think it is a fair question to ask what they would do if the creature were to ask them to help Putin in an scenario like the one you have presented.

17. Head for the bunker.

4. Sounds about as fair as the way they tally votes in Ohio

'Russian elections high-speed chase: In one Petersburg district a whopping 15% voted from home, then the urn full of ballots was taken away in a black Land Cruiser. Observers chased it for an hour until another car came & cut them off'

9. sadly, I think a majority of Republicans would be fine with this

They lost what little decency they had long ago

[Cosmocat]

11. YEP

They would welcome it.

13. Maybe the delegation of

republican politicians who went to Russia last July 4th. were there "picking up tips"? An election such as this one would be their "wet dream".

15. +1

14. They admire this behavior, and only wish they could eliminate our free press

so they could establish their own authoritarian dictatorship.

16. This could NEVER happen here! 'MURICA!!!
