With Trump, there are so many plot twists. Good luck trying to keep up with what he's doing or why he's doing it.

He's 15 moves ahead of you. 

 

 

If it were just Krasnov I wouldn’t worry. He’s failed at everything he’s done. BUT… I am worried about what those who are controlling him will do next.

Breaking news!

Trump says Putin is going absolutely crazy!

He says ... I don't know what the hell happened to Putin. LOL !!

Don't be absurd.

Are you that dense that this old news fools you!?!

It's just a game he occasionally plays for political cover because he knows the majority of Americans support Ukraine. 

 

If Trump was really ever to stop being Putin's poodle he would 

 

Ally with Europe to put on bone crashing sanctions on Russia including countries that buy Russian oil

 

Commit to arming Ukraine to the point they could win when combined with Russia falling apart economically. 

 

Officially acknowledge that Putin doesn’t want peace or even a ceasefire. He only wants total surrender and/or total victory to erase Ukrainisn sovereignty.

This is the LAST of their concerns.  It's like me saying I have no debt (which is true), so then...... so then nothing.   

In 2024, the US had a GDP of $29.7 trillion, while Russia's GDP was approximately $2.196 trillion

Absolutely no comparison.  Look at all financial metrics and it will tell you that debt/GDP is not a concern right now.  It might be, but not right now.   Every decade people say this will DESTROY America.....hahahahahhahahahhahahahahah....10000000% wrong

I consider him a traitor.

But really these are different topics.

Trump's perverted alliance with Putin vs. Trump's attempt to be the American equivalent of Putin in his own regime.

 

IMO there is a big difference. i.e. Putin is attempting to re-create the Russian Empire, whereas USA does not have an Empire to re-establish. However, Trump is endeavouring to destroy the Rule of Law both domestically and globally. In addition to crushing criticisms of his Administration, attacking the judiciary, oversight and so on which Putin has already achieved. I would say Trump appears to be more focussed on generating the Cult of Personality than Putin.

Small self  correction.

That Trump clip posted was recent 

That doesn't change my message one bit though.

Trump is still Putin's poodle unless and until.he actually DOES stuff to alter that narrative. 

 

To wit.

He just had a GDP problem after 2013... it explains rather well the timing of the invasion.

Apart from not being happy, what is he doing about it?

Time to use the 25th Amendment to replace Trump. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Trump it’s the grifter-in-chief!!!!!

As said in my OP people have used many different words to describe Trump's particular flavor of American democracy destroying authoritarian ambitions.

Here is an example of a word that can aptly be used to describe both Putin and Trump.

KLEPTOCRATS.

But both of them being kleptocrats are not JUST kleptocrats.

That's the beauty part of using Putinization.

It's not just one bad thing. It's a number of them that they BOTH share.

But again that really isn't the main topic here.

The main topic here is how Trump is trying to do to the USA what Putin did to Russia.

He’s not trying to, he’s doing it. He’s planning to stay in office until he’s dead, and his pathetic POC son takes over.

 

There’s a reason Hegseth and Vance are where they are.

Turns out it wasn't so smart to invade Ukraine in 2022.

It was supposed to take a few days. Now years later. That is NOT winning.

Anyway he's definitely much more intelligent than Trump, his poodle.

What makes you so sure Putin isn't a "weak clown?"

Is that a scientific term that can be proven? 

What constitutes a clown? Someone who juggles? 

How the heck do you know who is controlling who?

It's just speculation and most likely a nonsensical theory.

There are many good reasons for world leaders to be on good terms with each other instead of being enemies.

You're not posting in good faith.

You're just throwing half baked pest jabber at  the wall because criticism of Trump obviously personally offends you.

Dude, there isn't one sentient person on the planet who thinks Trump controls Putin.

That was  the last straw for me.

You are free of course to continue with your silly pest noise but you won't be hearing from me about it.

Happy trails amigo.
