Why would Putin wish to see Trump remain in The White House?...

Well, Since Trump the Genius is the most unfit president in the US history when it comes to foreign politics...
The GOP wants you to believe Trump is tough on Russia. So why does Moscow love him so much? The Kremlin’s state media make that clear almost every day.

https://www.thedailybeast.com/donald-trumps-fury-at-intel-briefing-shows-vladimir-putins-bet-keeps-paying-off
Russian experts and pundits on state television frequently express their desire to see President Trump re-elected. Appearing on Russia’s popular state television news talk show 60 Minutes last October, political analyst Mikhail Sinelnikov-Orishak gushed: “I look at Trump and think: ‘May God grant him good health—and another term.’ This is a great situation for Russia... may he flourish and get re-elected... Trump is a great candidate. I applaud him... For America, this isn’t a very good president.”

Because the Democrat Party and the Left will continue with their disruption of a working American Federal Government.
Yes, they are the unwitting allies of Putin.
You mean that is now not only the GOP but now also the Democratic Party and the Left?...
So what's left for the old great America?

For some reason I believe that America still doesn't know who Putin is. A former KGB official working with the task to spread disinformation directed to other countries so that the public cannot be sure of anything. He is still doing the same job and quite successful so against the US.

Question: What can Putin do to change even one vote in our politically polarized climate.
I would say he can change a lot. Just because the US have become a very politically polarized country. It's about us or them. Putin is laughing all the way to Kremlin every morning.

Trump says US has trade problems with South Korea and wonders if "we can get Gone With the Wind back". Guess the wind has turned a lot since when Trump took the office.

Considering the racist nature of Gone With the Wind, I'm surprised it hasn't been banned and destroyed like the statues of Confederate soldiers.

The issue with the Confederate statues was only that they were on outdoor government property, so appeared to be the government ironically giving official honors to those who seceded and went to war with the United States (isn't that the actual definition of treason?) Many have been moved to private land and museums and there hasn't been any issue with those.

A problem is that Donnie T doesn't understand that. Like his father who tried to white wash the family origins from Germany and claim they are from Sweden instead. Donnie T knows nothing at all about the Civil War!

How much longer will US citizens allow things like this to happen, or will they wait until there is nobody to help them.

WaPo - Opinion - William McRaven: If good men like Joe Maguire can’t speak the truth, we should be deeply afraid
William H. McRaven, a retired Navy admiral, was commander of the U.S. Special Operations Command from 2011 to 2014. He oversaw the 2011 Navy SEAL raid in Pakistan that killed Osama bin Laden.

Edmund Burke, the Irish statesman and philosopher, once said: “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” Over the course of the past three years, I have watched good men and women, friends of mine, come and go in the Trump administration — all trying to do something — all trying to do their best. Jim Mattis, John Kelly, H.R. McMaster, Sue Gordon, Dan Coats and, now, Joe Maguire, who until this week was the acting director of national intelligence.

I have known Joe for more than 40 years. There is no better officer, no better man and no greater patriot. He served for 36 years as a Navy SEAL. In 2004, he was promoted to the rank of rear admiral and was chosen to command all of Naval Special Warfare, including the SEALs. Those were dark days for the SEALs. Our combat losses from wars in Iraq and Afghanistan were the highest in our history, and Joe and his wife, Kathy, attended every SEAL funeral, providing comfort and solace to the families of the fallen.

But it didn’t stop there. Not a day went by that the Maguires didn’t reach out to some Gold Star family, some wounded SEAL, some struggling warrior. Every loss was personal, every family precious. When Joe retired in 2010, he tried the corporate world. But his passion for the Special Operations soldiers was so deep that he left a lucrative job and took the position as the president of the Special Operations Warrior Foundation, a charity that pays for educating the children of fallen warriors.

In 2018, Joe was asked to be the director of the National Counterterrorism Center, a job he knew well from his last assignment as a vice admiral. He accepted, but within months of his arrival came the announcement of Coats’s departure as director of national intelligence. Maguire didn’t seek to fill the job; he was asked to do it by the president. At first he declined, suggesting that Sue Gordon, Coats’s deputy, would be better suited for the job.

But the president chose Maguire. And, like most of these good men and women, he came in with the intent to do his very best, to follow the rules, to follow the law and to follow what was morally right. Within a few weeks of taking the assignment, he found himself embroiled in the Ukraine whistleblower case. Joe told the White House that, if asked, he would testify, and he would tell the truth. He did. In short order, he earned the respect of the entire intelligence community. They knew a good man was at the helm. A man they could count on, a man who would back them, a man whose integrity was more important than his future employment.

But, of course, in this administration, good men and women don’t last long. Joe was dismissed for doing his job: overseeing the dissemination of intelligence to elected officials who needed that information to do their jobs.

As Americans, we should be frightened — deeply afraid for the future of the nation. When good men and women can’t speak the truth, when facts are inconvenient, when integrity and character no longer matter, when presidential ego and self-preservation are more important than national security — then there is nothing left to stop the triumph of evil.

Correct.

Just politician's, media folks and other very silly people, on both sides, using Putin for their own reasons.

And Putin is laughing at the fools who believed the Russian Collusion/Delusion and now the Sanders/Trump stupidly.

Could be an interesting election if Putin has both candidates as glove puppets.

From Valerie Sobel
February 24, 2020

From Their Lips to God's Ears

If Democrats are right (and Lord knows they have a perfect record), "Russia, Russia, Russia 2.0" could not be more welcome.

Putin aiding and abetting Trump's Americans for 4 more years of the strongest economy in history, jobs abound, complete energy efficiency, and most funded and feared military in the world...is, indeed, generous of the Russian Czar. Signing up for more economic sanctions and capital depletion that edges on total bankruptcy of his country...is downright selfless of him. Viva Saint Putin and his liberal hallucinators!

The same CNN-watching brain surgeons can't wrap their heads around the "Russia Collusion with Bernie" tale. Unable to see the curious coincidence of this Russia 2.0 chronicle with the collective disdain for Bernie as the DNC front runner who can't beat Donald Trump or make socialism the apple of their eye.

More peculiarly, the fishy source of this "new" hysteria, Adam Schiff, who handed Trump the 2020 victory and single-handedly thrust Bernie into the lead with his famous impeachment sideshow, doesn't occur to them in the least. Neither does the fact that payback's a bitch: Bernie's the payback. And of their own making. A boomerang, so-to-speak.
