I have faith that we will stop trump and the Russian Invasion, and that scares me

Scares you? Nightwatcher are you off your meds?

I believe that Putin is out to cause chaos here. He's still fighting the Cold War and I'm worried about the next step after trump and Putin's direct influence have been stopped.

Remember all of those hacks into the power plants and power grids that came back to Russia. Check this out. Was Russian hacking of Ukraine's power grid a test run for U.S. attack http://www.cbsnews.com/news/russian-hacking-of-ukraines-power-grid-test-run-for-us-attack/

Then the U.K. hospitals were hit. http://nypost.com/2017/05/12/massive-hack-on-uk-hospitals-may-affect-other-countries/

What happens when Putin gets all he can from trump and has nothing left to lose here? Today I read that Putin plans to remain in office for life. He still has world domination on his mind.

And I bet more companies sign on to thwart Russia. I think it's down to corporate America to do the battling. They have the funds. They hire the best computer experts. They have a lot of political clout when they need a favor (like the justice who came out of retirement to work solely on Microsoft's counter attack). Best of all, they work in real time, not stymied by bureaucratic nonsense.

which is what would result from a major cyber attack on our infrastructure.
