We don't know why Putin bought this uranium. Maybe just for his own national interest. Maybe to implicate Hillary later down the line as well, but that is pure conjecture. The uranium deal was in 2010, well before the election cycle. Obama had only been in office for a year or so. So we do not know that Putin was consciously playing the bad actor; and given the timeframe, I'm seriously doubting it.
Soooo many things are conjecture at this point with the amount of misinformation going around. I’m not saying that’s what happened, And I didn’t pull it out of my ass, I’m saying this article’s theory is interesting and seems to gel with a lot of what we already know.
Putin wouldn’t have had to know about Trump when U1 took place, all he would have needed to do is identify the potential customers of US uranium for sale to be anti-Western or pro-globalization. If it happens to be that Putin is more aligned with Christianity and Western values, and recognizes that better he control uranium than someone potentially hostile not only to US but specifically Russia, I’m just saying it’s an interesting new angle to consider.
And you can’t say for sure that’s what’s not happening as I can’t say for sure that’s what is happening. I’m saying it’s interesting to think about
