A helpful guide for Making It Make Sense [View all]
Since Vladimir Putin is now in charge of the US, if anything Trump or his administration does seems frightening, weird, illegal, counterproductive, or horrible, just remember that it is what Putin wants.
What would Putin do? Is the operative question. Since Putin wants his global rival America to be weak, impoverished, sick, fighting against itself, broke, and increasingly under his control, Trump and his administration will do the things that bring about those results.
This will hopefully help allay any confusion. Trump does something that doesn't Make America Great Again - or something that doesn't help the GOP electorally, or doesn't make the world a better place, even for rich white guys? Trump does something that diminishes his own power, like dismantling the federal government that he is in charge of? Don't be confused or surprised - it is what Putin wants for America that matters now.
We are essentially an occupied country, just by proxy. All of these easily blackmailed department heads, etc., just make the takeover easier for Vlad.
