Putins chickens coming to roost...

IMHO I think o'l Vlad realizes tRumps days are numbered and it's time to excercise all the options.
US out of Syria?
US out of Afghanistan?
US government in disarray?
Stockmarket plummeting?
Sanctions lifted? (the big one)

Ok we are done using tRump...... cut him loose...
What 'cha tink?

Suspect that putin negative Russian news releases against trump have just been warning nudges [testicle twists'] to trump to get back in line.

Just let the American process do it's job and dump the orange shitstain.. I believe he told tRump thru the infamous "back channel communications" to do all this crazy shit, cause tRump is a short timer.. The important thing is the sanctions... it's always been about the sanctions.. Now Oligarch Deripaskas aluminum business is off the sanctions list,
the money will start flowing again into Russian coffers..

Syria, Iran and Afghanistan will need weapons and Russia is poised to be there for them..
AK-47 do wear out...

Agree.. And Putin can see the hand writing on the wall... tRump is a short timer so better get what you really need out of the way.. Sanctions.. And tRump is doing that now before he goes away..

Agree.... He is not going to go quietly into the nite... Trying to predict when individ-1 will leave is like trying to predict where a hurricane will hit when it's just a small low pressure system off the coast of Africa.
