I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

Except it's not luck. Russia has been nurturing a relationship with Trump since the 80's. Russian intelligence always plays the long game, and with Trump, it cost them very little to cultivate this relationship. And it's worked out for them. The ROI is huge. So Moscow isn't lucky. They did their research into a venal, amoral real estate developer, kept up a relationship with him for 40 years, and now it's paying off.
Considering the way this is playing out, with Trump giving Putin everything he could ever gave dreamt of, a cynic would wonder if the election was orchestrated and that Trump is a Putin style Manchurian candidate.
