I went with useful idiot.

Any of the other options basically mean our entire national security apparatus was asleep at the wheel if they allowed a compromised Russian asset to become President.

If the CIA knew Trump was a Russian asset, he would have died in a plane crash to Epstein island a long time ago.

That doesn’t make sense. Trump has been more hostile to our allies than he has been to China. His “China tariffs” resulted in an even larger trade deficit.
Well.. check this one...

This is clearly what Trump is going on: break not only the NATO but also the BRICS to make a new brand group. The advantage? both has over 10000 nukes on their arsenal, everyone else are screwed and with Israel would be 10100 at least.

I'm sticking with what I have believed from the beginning. He is compromised, making him a useful idiot.

I voted willing participant. I think he just wants to emulate Putin's strongman image. He idolizes him IMHO.

It's possible that Russia has dirt on him, but at this point what would he really care about being made public? He has no shame, and his base will follow him off a cliff.

Then he is really mentally ill.

Trumps father turned Donald into a narcissistic psychopath who fills his inner insecurities by a constant need for attention. He has to prove to his father’s ghost that haunts and tortures him from within that he is a success and not the failure his father made him out to be. By sucking up to the worst scum on the planet, people like his father, and earning their worthless friendship, he feeds that insatiable need. Vacuums sucking of vacuums is the game of the day. Trump has a bad case of who we hate about ourselves, someone who desperately wants to be loved and all because we were told our own real happiness was undeserved.

Looking at Trump is liking looking in the mirror. We can’t take our eyes off of what disgusts us, anything that reminds us of how we feel.

The lover and the beloved are one. For the lover Trump does not exist. Make it so.
