Hiding in plain sight. No one would suspect a boob like Trump be smart enough to be a Russian

Agent. Excellent criminal plan. Even though it's the oldest con in the book. Thieves use their partner as a distraction while stealing department store clothes. Trump is a front. Not a puppet.
He's a distraction. His little hands have to be held by his yes people in times of stress. Manafort. Page. Stone. Flint. Kushner. All met with Russians. They were and are calling the shots. Well along with Ivanka. Who probably said, "Daddy? When you bomb that country who gassed babies, please don't hurt anyone. I'm pro life." "Oh and don't piss off China because they make my shoes."

No, he's not that smart. He's a boob. Russia knows he's a boob Warpy Apr 2017 #1

and they know how much damage he'll do to this country just because he's a boob.

He's also been stripped of his main handlers, Flynn and Manafort. Oh, I think they can still exert influence, but it was a lot easier with those two crooks right there. However, getting him into the White House was the real name of the game because he will be a catastrophe.

There are no other possibilities here.

longer needed. That was my point. Putin pegged Trump as a boob and a narcissist as soon as they met and could see right through him. I would not doubt he flattered Trump by saying, when they first met, 'You would make a good American President.' Putin knows Trump is controlled through flattery. And of course prostitute urine.

and they can get their bread basket, the Ukraine, back again.

They were up to their fur hats in Brexit, weakening the EU, and now they've installed an utter boob who thinks he can run this country. He will, too, right into the ground. It will take decades to recover if we don't manage to get rid of him quickly.

Unfortunately, the GOP wants to keep him in place for 2 years so whatever follows him is eligible for 10.
