Donald luvs Vlad. Vlad doesn't luv democracy. And Donald luvs Donald more than he loves democracy.

Birds of an authoritarian feather stick together, and the apex predator in on the world stage, Russia's Vladimir Putin, has taken a nuthatch who thinks he's an eagle, Donald Trump, under his wing.

Were Trump to win the election (which, thank God, is not going to happen), Vlad would proceed to eat him alive.

But even now, the little nuthatch is helping to undermine American democracy just as his hero is doing in Eastern Europe.
