Just letting my imagination run wild. You think Putin would ever take out TFG if He

[flying_wahini]

started blabbing about Putin’s influencing our elections..? Money Laundering tips?
If he was going to spill the beans, tell all the secrets he learned from Putin?
Is TFG a threat to Putin? Think TFG ever lies awake worried about it?

1. Their relationship is one way

TFG gave away our state secrets to Putin to satisfy his own sense of self importance

Putin, being the smarter one, told TFG nothing of value and in fact probably lied to TFG many times.

4. Yep.

2. I think TFG is inconsequential to Putin. Putin is probably still laughing at his orange behind.

When he gets with his Kremlin cronies, they probably spend hours telling jokes about the Orange Menace.

3. I think Putin doesn't give a damn about TFG

Putin wants to see America tear itself apart. TFG is only useful to Vladimir in relation to that end.

His secrets only matter if revealing them makes the Russian people turn against him. Considering he controls the press and elections in his country, that is unlikely.

5. Trump is not a threat to Putin.

Putin didn't tell him any secrets.

Putin knows half the US doesn't care that the Russians installed Trump
and interfered with elections. And the other half doesn't believe anything Trump says.

6. You know how unions make ambit claims?

Ask for a hundred times their expectations then prepare to bargain down.

This was Putin in 2016. Best case scenario at the time was to sow a bit of chaos and bullshit in the US. An ambit claim. However the number of undereducated, underinformed partisan repub idiots made it possible for Putin to far exceed his wildest dreams. Just look at what you got.

It almost destroyed the US. Knowingly or not V Putin engaged the sensibilities of an authoritarian, white supremacist element in US voters. I also don't discount ultra-malarkey with the electoral rolls.

IMO it's an unproductive excercise to 'let your imagination run wild' on Putin taking out tfg or anything else related to the 2020 (or 2016 for that matter) elections. This is a long hard grind against the idiotic forces. Always remember 'Empty cans rattle the loudest'. These empty cans have a loud voice on the internet. We, as humans, need to deal with this anomaly; that fucking idiots are just as influential as measured, educated people.

12. Nopel

Etc

[2naSalit]

13. Naw, he knows he'd be doing us a favor.

[PortTack]

14. Tfg is still an asset to pootie. As long he opens his mouth and causes divide here in the US

[Captain Zero]

15. My Guess. Putin has an asset or two at Mara Loco, besides Trump

Probably one among the membership rolls. at least
Probably one among the employees. at least.
Probably one among the family. Maybe more.

maybe the opportunity is there, waiting for the motive.
