The mere fact that you state, as a fact when it's not, that Putin is pro-Trump shows that you believe what the media tells you without the slightest bit of intellectual skepticism.
And that is sad.
The reality is that Putin doesn't care who wins. He will hate either of them because they're both American and he hates America.
So what is he doing? He just wants chaos. And that's exactly what the libs/dems/media (I know, the 3rd one there is redundant...) do for him. They're his useful idiots.
If he did have a preference, I think he would definitely favor Harris. Why? because she would be the next presidential stooge in line for him to walk all over. First Bush (Georgia) next Obama (Crimea), then Biden (Ukraine), and now Harris? Are any names conspicuously absent from that list of recent presidents that Putin has walked all over?
Why does any of this matter, you may be wondering? It's because when the media reports on this, they're mentioning Trump's name as often as possible, counting on the useful sheeple idiots to conflate Russian interference with the pathetically fake Russian collusion narrative. They are two different things, but when they report about Russian interference and work Trump's name into it, the sheeple jump to sheeple-like conclusions, as they always do.
Why does this latest Russia scam matter? Because there are still swampy Republicans and undecided types (Libertarians, etc.) who may fall for this blatant election interference. If anyone actually trusts the Biden DOJ and in particular that feckless waste of carbon known as Merrick Garland after all the stunts they've pulled, then they really need to start doing some research. But they won't, being sheeple and useful idiots for the dems and Putin.
