    What I remember is that as late as 6 pm, anonymous people within the Trump klan were saying, “It doesn’t look good.”

    I don't know about that - I remember the Clinton camp cancelling a planned fireworks show a day or two before. Guessing they realized it was going to go late at best.

    Remember Manafort was also the engineer of the elaborate-yet-idiotic "mechanical airplane problems" charade that stranded the blissfully oblivious and obtuse Fatfuck on the tarmac long enough to dissuade him from his supposedly carved-in-stone decision to pick Fatass Chris Christie as VP, and instead install the previously-hardly-known-by-anybody Jeezus freak P***syboy Pence in the slot. Nobody at the time could figure out where the fuck THAT came from. Perhaps this could be a clue.

    The next question of course is, what exactly about the cut of Pence's jib made him so absolutely irresistible to Deripaska??

    He seems like an absolute blank slate, a mayonnaise flavored slice of white bread anybody could manipulate any way they saw fit. Why would anybody want such a weightless homunculus installed as VP? Why, why??

    Think of it, had Fatfuck nominated Christie as VP, we'd have had a presidential ticket weighing a third of a fucking ton.

    Seems to me the scenario all along was this: Putin knows Trump is easy for him to manipulate (or even blackmail), so Putin uses a broad campaign of propaganda and social media disinformation to pull off a suspicious upset victory. Putin then gets Trump alone in Helsinki and warns him away from helping Ukraine. Because Putin wants to invade Ukraine and claim it for Russia.

    For Putin, a veteran of playing the long game, Ukraine was the prize.
    Installing Trump, who is far too vapid for global conflicts, was the key.
    And by the time Fucko was ousted, the damage to Ukraine had been done, so Putin went in anyway.

    In retrospect, doesn't this scenario look pretty obvious by now?

    I could see an alternative where if Trump is re-elected, Putin holds off on invading to see just how much more unstable the international balance of power becomes and how much Russia can get away with during a second administration. Once Biden was elected, he may have decided he’d squeezed all he could out of the scenario and went for it.

    All true, but we all know Fatfuck is erratic and undependable and breaks his word all the time. So my guess is that somebody a little higher up the food chain said to Manafort, "If Fatfuck gets into the White House, he'll do what we tell him. Mostly. But you never know when he might decide he wants to fuck us, just to prove he can. So there might come a day we want Fatfuck to do something, and he just won't do it. So maybe we want somebody standing by as VP who is basically just a ventriloquist dummy, who will do EXACTLY what we tell him. So at that time we might just decide it's time for Fatfuck to take a dive out the nearest window. Then our trained dummy Pence moves into the chair."
