        Mob ties you said? "Russian oligarch" is the politically correct term for "big time mobster"...I'm lost!

        Reminder: Reporting on efforts by an establishment party to conspire with a hostile foreign nation is not collusion with the establishment.

        Reminder: Russia is not hostile to the US, it's the other way 'round. Ceaselessly attributing Clinton's failure to this is not "reporting".

        You are aware, I take it, that "comrade" is not a commonly heard phrase here in Evil Mother Russia, these days?

        Yeah. I’m playing to a non-Russian audience, so the use of “comrade” works. So how much are they paying you, anyhow?

        The biggest mistake you can make in politics is thinking your guy cannot be corrupted but the opponent can. They both can.

        More like incompetent but not sure he's corrupt. Average intelligence and can be manipulated through flattery.

        Average is not very high. But it's hard to pinpoint exactly.
