So, Trump, the "laughingstock," is on his way here to Europe. Here's my take on what is going on:

60. My concern -

Great post, btw.

I found the section about not seeing a parallel between Trump and Hitler interesting. I'd be greatly reassured by their take on it, were it not for the fact of BANNON, and Putin too.

I've seen a number of moves - subtle things - that Trump has made that make me think he's getting strategic advice from someone who's craftier politically than he is. I imagine it's likely to be either Bannon or perhaps Putin himself through some of Trump's many Russian "friends." Like Rybolovlev, whose plane keeps showing up at airports near where Trump is??

Bannon is a huge follower of that Dugin guy, the avowed fascist political scientist who's a favorite of Putin.

Or perhaps Manafort who may have just the right background /experience for that.

Wish I could remember some of the things that Trump has done that made me think that but at the moment my mind's a blank on the subject. I just know there were 2 or 3 or possibly 4 things that made me go, "Hmmmmm, who's directing his moves?"
