Truer words were never spoken on LWT.

8.6/10. Pretty superb episode. The opening news roundup, touching on other stories though noting all the ways that Trump takes up all the oxygen in the room was well done. And the main story, examining the issues with Putin as a leader and his techniques in Russia, and using that to explain why Trump's attempts to cozy up to Putin and Russia, whatever his motivation, is concerning, nicely balanced between education and comedy. The only part I didn't really care for was the ending song and dance, but that's never been my favorite part of the show. Overall, this is LWT acting as an interesting and honest broker in a way no other show on TV does.
