"What the Kremlin fears most today is that Trump may be ousted or even killed. His ouster, Kremlin insiders argue, is bound to unleash a virulent and bipartisan anti-Russian campaign in Washington. Oddly, therefore, Putin has become a hostage to Trump’s survival and success. This has seriously restricted Russia’s geopolitical options. The Kremlin is perfectly aware that Democrats want to use Russia to discredit and possibly impeach Trump while Republican elites want to use Russia to deflate and discipline Trump. The Russian government fears not only Trump’s downfall, of course, but also the possibility that he could opportunistically switch to a tough anti-Moscow line in order to make peace with hawkish Republican leaders in Congress."[/quote]

How could they be fearing Trump's downfall when the whole operation has been so sloppy?  It's almost as if his downfall is part of the plan.

I still believe some version of what I started suspecting last summer:

1. Trump's debt to Russia got unwieldy.  They told him he could get out of it by undermining Clinton.
2. He agreed to do it, believing it would be easy to either kill her campaign or undermine her presidency and then he'd be free.
3. He does everything he can think of to lose.
4. He knew there would be Russian interference in the election but still thought he'd lose and the hacking business would only harm a President Clinton.
5. Then SURPRISE! He's president, a job he definitely doesn't want. Still in the grips of Putin, with a debt he can never pay off.

Question is, what does Putin want him to do.  Better question, how far will our national security let him go.  Because for all the speculating we're doing here, there are obviously people who know way more.  They may feel it's safer for the country if Trump stays where he is while they isolate the threat.[/quote]
