Some of your letters, I keep. This is one. Everyone needs to read this. Even I need to read this again. This Trump, Putin, Mannafort, Kilimnick thing is some dark stuff that I'm sure the average Joe doesn't know or care about. We're being eaten away from the inside out.

This Ukraine story, as written, is too complicated. It needs to be simplified to be understood.

IтАЩll simplify. Putin has destroyed a beautiful, successful country for his own greedy power trip.

At least two countries so far, Jeri, his own and Ukraine. And it is hard to know which destruction will have the direr long-term effects, only that the Chinese regime will profit by inheriting the wreckage of both.

It really is complicated -- actually MORE complicated than "as written".

Yet there is something simple to it. A people longing for, fighting for the simple freedom to be themselves. As individuals. As a nation.

In Russia today, in America tomorrow, if Drumpf prevails, one man only is free to be himself. All others must submit, or suffer the direst consequences.

ItтАЩs not just his ego. The money men will destroy life as we know it. How many seniors will be homeless or die without social security or Medicare? Or they will live with their overburdened kids in a crowded apartment because there is no housing and will also be poor trying to feed family from the 2 companies left gouging prices? It will be the haves versus the have nots. All about money and greed.

There is also material about this in Andrew WeissmannтАЩs book, along with a maddening account of how much more Mueller could have done.
