"Мы выиграли!" *



When your team wins in sports, naturally you cheer. That, apparently, is what high level Kremlin officials did when their man, neo-fascist useful idiot Donald "Rump" Trump, won the Presidential race, according to a U.S. intelligence report provided to President Obama yesterday. The reaction, described as "ebullient" by intelligence officials, was captured by sophisticated signal intelligence:
"The Russians felt pretty good about what happened on Nov. 8 and they also felt pretty good about what they did. (snip) 
By October, it had become clear that the Russians were trying to help the Trump campaign."
Rump's pathological narcissism won't allow him to process the fact that he got help -- significant and unprecedented help -- from a hostile foreign government that regards him as an asset. But as the facts come out over the next few days from the intelligence briefings and report prepared by the U.S. intelligence community, only Trumpists deep in the Kool Aid barrel will continue to question the overwhelming evidence, and that's nothing to cheer about.
