Everyone knows by now how close Donald Trump and his pal Vladimir Putin really are. As observed earlier, Trump eagerly overlooks Putin’s human rights abuses while condemning Castro today for the same sort of behavior.

However, Vladimir Putin threw some water on Trump’s anti-Castro routine by pointing out what a great pal Fidel himself was to America’s enemies:

It is true, and Putin is not lying about Castro’s enduring friendship with the Soviet Union and then Putin’s rule of post-Communist Russia. It is difficult for Trump to justify attacking Castro while praising Putin, but that is precisely what he has done, leaving us with this conundrum to unravel:

Trump says he loves Putin. Trump says he hates Castro. Putin says he loves Castro.

This is just another conflict of interests Trump needs to answer, and not a financial one this time, but an ideological. Where does Trump stand on dictatorship? Barring a rescue on the recount front, it is a question America will have answered in the most unpleasant way possible.
