Treason on this scale causes widespread cognitive dissonance: one’s concept of a US president contradicts the behavior we all see before our eyes: treasonous, corrupt, unlawful sabotage of our country. It makes no sense - unless Trump is 100% aligned with Putin:which is a repellent/scary - but true.

Trump is an Oblast Govenor. Oblast governors are handpicked by Putin and are loyal due to fear of the kompromat he holds over them or death. The citizens of Oblasts have learned not to speak out against the leaders. Trump limits speech with MAGA that threaten those that speak out.
