Frida Ghitis: Vladimir Putin waited two days before congratulating Trump on his victory.

Ghitis says it's a mind-blowing bit of psychological warfare for the new president.

She says the Russians are basically telling Trump : We put you in office, now it’s time for you to pay us back. She says there's no evidence that Trump or his campaign staffers colluded in, or knew anything about, these videos or the bomb threats. She asks: What Trump does about this campaign—whether he is fully aware of its extent and depth—is as yet unknown..

Ruben Navarrette : Trump should not act as if Putin is his friend in Ukraine .

He says he should not treat Putin as his friend, and he should be careful not to treat him as friend of Putin .

He asks: What will he do when he realizes Putin is not his friend?.
