The post could make it sound as if Putin had nothing to do with the 2016 election of the Potus. There must surely be a word in Russian for BS.
Y'know of course Sergey Brin the Russian American co-founder of Google was one among many at the San Francisco Airport during anti Trump demonstrations there because, as he said, "I am a refugee." The Russian chessmaster and emmigre' to USA Gary Kasperov speaks readily about the Putin-Trump connection....
Russian chess master Gary Kasparov provided some startling insights into Russian President Vladimir Putin’s covert effort to support Donald Trump’s presidential campaign. Kasparov says he’s “absolutely” certain Putin is interfering in the election.
Kasparov told CNN’s Jake Tapper, Friday (Oct. 21, 2016) that the Russian government likely has Trump campaign emails as well that are equally embarrassing. But so far it has refrained from releasing them. “I don’t believe for a second that Trump was clean,” he said. “More likely, they had plenty but they decided to use it privately to good effect, whether we are talking about debts or blackmail.”
Trump’s talking down of American democracy and constant complaints about a “rigged election” also play into Putin’s hands, according to Kasparov. “Putin probably has an even bigger goal to seed doubts in America and the world about the integrity of U.S. elections,” he said. “By doing so, he could have the biggest geopolitical victory that KBG colonel could ever dream of, because, if American elections are rigged, who cares about elections in Russia."

BYW we might keep in mind that Putin never played chess against anyone he couldn't put in jail. Or have shot. Or poisoned. Polonium Putin.
We've become acquainted with the Russian word
kompromat meaning compromised as in have the goods on, which many of us suspect between Putin and Trump. My Russian is non existent but one of my parents could translate reasonably statements made on television by the various Soviet leaders visiting the USA.
Putin controls the Russian parliament, the Dupa (Dupka?), at all times, whereas in USA we over here have the separation of the branches so that under the two party system American voters can vote the opposition into Congress, and under their own leaders. That would be a huge setback for Putin-Trump and The Fanboyz. American voters know this.
So next time youse guyz from over there claim or pretend there was no interference I'm likely to suggest youse might want to sit in the non-consuming section of the Putin-Trump grandstand.
