Some of the adults in the room have aligned with the Putin/Trump/GOP crime syndicate.
They have been drinking the kool aid.

Some of the adults are going to be busy saving their own necks, and let others worry about democracy
and national security. We have been watching this happen every day since Nov 5.

The remaining adults may have no power to do much of anything.

They would be fools to trust the US.

Trump has most likely leaked foreign intelligence to Putin and other enemies.

Five Eyes is now Four Eyes I guess.

Who benefits and how?

By helping to install Trump, Putin has damaged the US a great deal without firing a shot.

Reagan, a long with managed care, wiped out the US mental health treatment system.

It is still broken decades later.
