I just saw _Active Measures_ yesterday, and fresh from that viewing I can confirm that it is powerful *not* because it is 'propaganda' or 'fantasy' but because every bit of it is accurate. The facts of Trump's allegiance to Putin cannot be doubted, when we are shown archival materials, emails, film footage, photographs, and much more: even without the talking heads, the information is all there.
And one reason the talking heads are persuasive is that ** They Are Republicans and Democrats.** They are not all lefty Trump-haters; they are McCain as well as H. Clinton, CIA, FBI, Republican operatives as well as Democratic ones.
And if you still don't believe that Trump's agenda is driven by Putin, okay, don't believe the film, read C. Unger's _House of Trump, House of Putin._ He has even More facts, because there's a whole volume of proof.
And if you are still sceptical, consider the jury's decision in the Manafort trial, AND the willingness of so many former Trump associates to flip.
All of these -- that book and others, the continuing results of the Trump-associate trials -- support the information in the film, which is done with great clarity and visual power.
GO SEE IT.
If only the people who need to see it would go also.
