He has surrendered his administration to Russia. Everything he has done and is doing is guided by the idea of weakening America and making Russia and, by default, China, the powers of the 21st Century.

I don't know what hold Putin has over him, but it has to be something really, really bad.

And if you voted for him, you're complicit.

    Look at how he skipped and clapped for Putin, versus how he greated Zelensky. He may not be a Russian plant, but he surely is doing their work on our country.

    But it's just another real estate (real e'tat?) deal: selling America, lock, stock and barrel. Though as things are going, it's no longer going to be billed as a going concern. OTOH, I suppose that's appropriate: Russia is teetering on the edge of collapse/implosion, and Putin would share that blessing with the world by using Trump to bring about another Great Depression.

    I'm not convinced Putin has some super file on Krasnov. Let's not forget that the Melon Felon is a true surrender monkey. In the face of strength, he crumbles. He knows Putin has no compunction whatsoever of revealing what he has and that it will destroy everything trump imagines himself to be. The rub is that trump is so fragile, it doesn't have to be earth shattering to get him to grovel at Pooty's shoes.

    Putin may be selling us... However he gets to take that home and sell
    his people a lie...The lie, a great deal with US president.
    BEfore he landed it would be exactly that.
