Great work OP
This will be an election that will prove if we have really passed the point of no return in absurdity / ignorance / idiocy among the population.
There has been so many actual facts already uncovered that go directly against the public interest (real issues affecting the country, not pussy grabbing) that just about any presidential candidate in the history of US would have to drop out.
Being forced to it by public (which appears increasingly ignorant), and by mass media (which either hide just about everything like if didn't happen or are labeled "extremist").

I won't pretend to act like I know exactly why the Russians want Trump to win. All I know is that typically if the Russians want something, whatever that is isn't likely very good for the US.
If Putin wants Trump there is a reason and I highly doubt that reason is world peace.

The whole Middle Eastern oil cartel is trying for a while now to cut just about anybody else from even considering self-reliance in oil production by artificially dumping the price of crude oil below its drilling cost.
Russia needs the prices to go up, so it's in their interest all these cartel nations have a strong counter part in the region (that's why they support Iran). Plus they also have their pretty much only military base in Middle East in Syria. That itself is a clear reason why they are involved.
Ironically, Obama with his Iran fiasco and history of utter incompetence and inaction in the region (apart from bowing to the Saudi King) gives the Russians an excellent opportunity to achieve just this.
If Trump proclaims that he's not going to continue exporting "freedom" to these hellish regions that cause so much trouble to the Russian economy, it's only logical Russia supports him over the proven war monger HRC.
HRC, that's in the pocket of just about any big business in US. We could see first hand what this has caused during the last 15 years (think 3 trillion "war" in Iraq, government money funneled directly to the military complex etc.).
