Putin and Trump are obviously going to be allies in the Middle East, but as corporate individuals, not as super nation leaders. Which means, they are going to hold back US foreign interests for the benefit of working together to pull out as much oil out of the ground in areas that we once fought over.
The American Right are going to be used as useful idiots as they get pulled into supporting Trump's positions, believing there will be cheap oil in the deal. It is going to be another hypocrisy to witness as they watch people getting slaughtered in areas that they once demanded action from Obama.
But, Trump's reckless manner is going to piss off someone and we will go to war before his four years are up.
In other words, we're going to have a more transparent version of the Bush years.
