Isn't it strange?

So many of us know, for certain, that Trumpy must bend over for Putin, or he'll have worse than hell to pay. It's becoming so obvious, even in the past few days.

Trumpy fires T. Rex right after Tillerson condemns Russia, and since then, Nikki Haley and the "Press Secretary" in the White House have denounced Russia, while Putin's water boy drinks a diet Coke and pisses in the planter box.

Isn't it obvious that Trumpy can NEVER cross Putin? NEVER can he do this. And we're stuck with Trumpy while Putin walks all over him and the rest of us.

In a way, it doesn't matter if Trumpy is cognitively impaired, or if he's a zillion dollars in debt, or if he had orgies with penguins. The result is the same: Trumpy can't stand up to Putin, and he will NEVER do so. Putin knows this and will act accordingly.

Trump has such a huge ego that he can't be controlled completely. After awhile, he would rebel and do something destructive or self-serving. Forget whatever it is that Putin has on him that is so terrible. Putin must be using a combination of fear and flattery. He has 45 convinced that they are equals who will rule the world together. The fear may keep 45 in line, but it is not unalloyed fear.
