Vladimir Putin gave direct instructions to help elect Trump, report says

I know some people will say that this is FAKE NEWS and whatever...

It's really interesting, regardless. As Putin has been saying, the US interferes in elections in other countries, why wouldn't Russia try to interfere in ours, especially since he has a well known distaste for Clinton. I mean, it's incredibly plausible that this is true

I'm not saying that Trump, himself, had any direct involvement. It doesn't seem like he did. But, there are some people close to his campaign who might have.

And this leads to Seth Rich and wikileaks....if Seth was the leaker (again, totally plausible and likely), what if it wasn't the DNC who killed him but someone else? Someone in domestic OR foreign intelligence. What if he leaked and was killed by the FSB, in the hopes that it would look like he was killed for leaking. It fits a narrative, right? Russia interferes in our election, with their main mode of operation being sowing seeds of confusion, chaos, and discord. They encourage leaks and hammer certain talking points home again and again. They sloppily murder the leaker in hopes that it looks suspicious thus encouraging more chaos and discord. Or, to get more off-the-wall...what if Rich was a psy-ops all along?

Obviously I'm completely speculating, but it's an interesting mystery. There are so many sides to this story and so many facets to examine
