It wasnt trump

And it wasn't hillary because liberals are convinced the russians wanted her to lose

That leaves bernie sanders - a lifelong marxist who has deep ties to russia dating back to when he spent his honeymoon in moscow during the height of the Cold War

If the russians were trying to throw the election away from hillary they were trying to throw it to their man from Vermont bernie sanders

Of the three I see none that would have been bad for Putin's war on us. Possibly Clinton would have been more active, but I suspect that the information Russia holds on her would be sufficient to have laid her lame. Sanders would have been a real problem to the US and domestic politics would have removed the country from sensible foreign activities. Our selection of front runners was so pathetic, that it is astounding that we could have scrapped the barrel so deep.

Everything points to bernie sanders as putin's first choice for US president

He certainly would have been damaging, but the present situation has cost us heavily. So Putin mustn't be too unhappy.

It sure contridicts the lies you are being fed by the anti trump liberal media

A thing like this could force liberals to think for themselves instead of being told what to think by their surrogate brains on tv

It contradicts nothing ........ other than reality.

You don't think putin would prefer a marxist with lifelong ties to russia over hillary or trump?

Just add the numbers and it comes up bernie sanders every time

No doubt Putin would have preferred August Spies as his choice for President.

Putin picked his man - and his man was Trump.

I don't think it is the "leftwing" in any meaningful sense. It is much closer the center and a phenomenon of liberal Democrats representing the well off groups in investment banking, software/social media and most of the MSM. They are certainly to the left of rational policy mixes, but are far to the right of most European centrists.

No, putin would have prefered his old ally and fellow traveler from the Cold War days, bernie sanders

Putin made his pick - and his pick was Donald Trump. No amount of delusional right wing wet dream fantasies can change that reality.

We are talking about Americans not euro's so labels that describe them do not apply in America

No, clearly putin was working to get bernie the democrat nomination and sure election based on conventional wisdom

The only thing standing between putin havinng a real puppet in the oval office was hillary and her evil supporters at the DNC

Lets stick to proven reality ... and that is Putin backed Trump and worked to get him elected.

In your case "proven realitY" is only what the lying liberal media tells you it is

Why would putin support a sure loser like trump who no one expected to win?

But bernie had a real shot to be putin's loyal flunkie in the white house if he could just get past hillary and the stacked deck at the DNC

Putin made his choice and his choice was Trump. All of your mental gymnastics cannot change that.
 
.....Huh?

my mistake .... I confused Putin with Trump ....... easy to do based on their recent history. :mrgreen::lamo

I changed the error in my post... thanks for spotting it. :2wave: Maybe I need my cup of tea before I sit down to type at this early hour.
 
Assuming you mean putin made his choice the only logical pick was bernie since all the smart money thought trump would lose

Bernie was a reliable fellow traveler who would almost surely be the next president if putin could take out hillary and throw the democrat nomination to sanders

You should have made that case to Putin when he was picking Trump as his man.

Putin didn't pick trump

All the bad stuff about hillary came out during the democrat primaries when it could only help bernie sanders
