Whether or not it's a good idea depends on what outcome you desire. If the aim is to weaken the U.S. then putting a foolish unelected billionaire in charge of things that he has no idea about is a great idea.

I don't think Trump's aim is to weaken the US. I don't think here's some big secret Russia conspiracy.
I think the situation is much simpler. Trump wants to be king. What happens to America in the future is immaterial. And a king needs a kingmaker, who in this case also wants to be MOTU.

Putin and Xi know this too, and help out making it happen - good for them with a clown begin the king of the US.
(Not sure if any help was needed this time though.)

That's not really the claim these days. The Stelle Dossier accusations haven't really been substantiated.
He's more likely to be just a useful idiot. Far more easy to manipulate than politically educated stable people, and with less connection to the institutions of State.
