ALEX: Trust is a funny thing. So hard to earn,
so easy to lose. If the US system
depends on trust in democratic institutions, who benefits if Americans
lose that trust? TROLL ACTOR:
Is it Vladimir Putin? Oh, my gosh, I--
I can't believe it. ALEX: In Russia, Putin has built
a political system that depends
on personal loyalty. Putin can claim that
the trolls didn't work for him. That's true. But they do his bidding because they work for someone
he trusts to serve him. Literally. He is Yevgeny Prigozhin,
a former hot dog salesman who worked his way
up the Kremlin food chain and earned the nickname
"Putin's Chef." WALLANDER: It didn't surprise me
that Prigozhin had been the source of funding for
the Internet Research Agency, given that
he had been involved in some other
favored Putin operations
