@Blickers,
Exactly all we have to do is consider who has been hanging around Trump and their ties to Putin/Russia. The head guy may have been demoted from the spotlight but he ain't gone, he'll be there just like the gang was there for Bush Jr to push for the Iraq war. Only this time it will be a push to disband or withdrawal from NATO on the foreign front and all the people who want to weaken the civil rights gains on the domestic front.
