Putin and the KGB have certainly won by putting Trump in office. And the worse is yet to come.

The real winner, as it has been for the last 40+ years of US politics, is Israel. Almost all of the Senators that have dual citizenship have it with Israel.

I've read that much of the US aid to Israel is cycled back to the US as campaign contributions to politicians who will support Israel in everything. So we're paying for it when Israel mistreats Palestinians. Probably Russia figured out how to pay to put the politicians they wanted in office.

Thanks to Kavanaugh foreign nationals can now, legally, spend money on American campaigns. https://www.npr.org/2018/08/08/636299187/on-appeals-court-kavanaugh-helped-to-loosen-political-money-laws

So expect it to get worse.
