Is the Bastard playing us all?
It was said that Putin/Trump never thought they'd win in '16, just looking to build a brand and sow chaos in the US political system.
When they hit the trifecta, Putin was unleashed on the world and the Dotard found a toy that resisted his efforts to break it.
No one would ever call him logical, but daily lying and overtly heinous actions are not things usually expected to ensure re-election.
The escalating breaking of norms and open contempt for anything logical or effective are reaching peak Trump.
With the clear evidence that the Russians are backing Bernie, we are seeing Putin's Chaos Plan 2020. His idea being that if/when Trump loses, Bernie will be the least likely to reunite both sides of the political/social world, so he wins regardless of the election outcome.
As far as the Bastard-in-Chief, it looks like he's intent on breaking our Nation to ensure that not only will he lose, but things will be so bad that any Dem will be blamed for four years of decline and at risk in 2024 due to citizen fatigue from the effort to rescue us.
Tanked economy, pandemics, climate disaster, social unrest, racial turmoil, and Jim Crow judges will consume the next Administration and overwhelm any campaign/policy promises so a Dem President will be seen as unsuccessful even when they save our country.
It worked against Obama, how could it not work against any lesser being?
