>what we know today he has risen to power thanks to an international network of criminal enterprise.

Are you excusing domestic criminal enterprise networks, or are you claiming the extremely narrow viewpoint that Russia was entirely responsible for Trump?

USA alone is responsible for Trump not Russia. Russia is background noise. Yes they set the stage, but in the current climate they are overrated. All they had to do is push the dominos already lined up. They did the same thing in Europe - yet none of the far-right camps made it yet (apart from Austria).

Amercia got exactly the president it deserves.

How did Russia set that stage in a manner that $6.5 billion [1] (publicly known at least!) along with thousands and thousands of hours of free & corporate biased advertising via mainstream media couldn't defeat? $100,000 in mixed republican/liberal ads surely had nothing on $6.5 billion.
