If you view Trump as your enemy, understanding him matters if you intend to fight him.

To be clear, I'm not saying Trump is a Russian asset. I was just changing the perspective because I think it's interesting all the things he's doing make perfect sense for helping Russia. In which case he'd be effective instead of incompetent.

I mean, I don't know that I am "fighting" him. I vote in every election that I can, but I have no plans on running for political office, I'm probably not going to go out and protest, and I'm not going to file lawsuits against the administration.

And I certainly don't think complaining on Hacker News counts as "doing something".
