Simple question (not a trap) -
What would Russia want from a “bought out “ US president?
What could they reasonably GET?
I missed this and I think I may have some answers.
First they would want the new president to be partially black. They would want him to claim to be from Hawaii. They certainly wouldn't want a president who would make the US stronger, but rather, one who would promise to fundamentally change the country. They would want a guy who could pave the way for socialism to gain a stronger foothold through deceit and deception. They need that because all the guys they've ran on the communist party ticket so far have been soundly defeated.
With this puppet in place they could get access to uranium to fuel nuclear subs and carriers as well as nuclear weapons. They could get weak minded Americans to doubt the power of the US Constitution to provide a blueprint for creating and maintaining a sovereign nation. They could get many steps closer to the end game of creating a communist world where disparity between the classes wouldn't hinge on individual effort and desire.
