I think it would be a real hoot if the Russians hacked Trump's twitter account.

I wonder, since he "knows a lot about hacking" how he would react to that.

On second thought, I can't think of anything a malicious hacker posing as Trump could say that would be any worse than what the real DJT tweets every day.

Long ago. Even the Washington Post editorial board is officially wondering if Putin might have something on Trump--as an explanation of Trump's otherwise inexplicable behaviors toward Russia.

Also the Republican Party, and many conservative power figures, which have become so corrupted that THEY are not Putin's big barrier to restoring the Soviet Union's borders.
