Follow The Money, See Why Trump Is Putin's Useful Idiot
Why would Russia help Trump? Aside from the fact that Vladimir Putin has no love lost for Secretary Hillary Clinton he also stood to gain an insane amount of money.
The rift between Putin and Clinton, was sparked by her criticism of Russia’s parliamentary elections in 2011, which she said were not free or fair, and Putin was furious.
That re-election
tainted by widespread fraud allegations and massive protests, (could be followed by another run in 2018 keeping him in power until 2024).
After that election, Putin tearfully thanked supporters, declaring: "I promised that we would win and we have won! We have won in an open and honest struggle."
Sadly, like Herr Gropenführer, Putin is also a narcissist, concerned with his image.
The Russian president is also allegedly obsessed with knowing what the world is saying about him. Aides prepare daily press clippings, and while he rarely uses the Internet, his advisers show him parodies. "He must know how they mock him," sources say.
