that ties in with the mob stuff.

but the thing is, it's not clear how the russian ties are going to affect u.s. foreign policy. the russian press is already getting cold feet about its brief love affair with trump post-election. i mean, let's say you're trump and you have russian ties. so what? you're now the president and russia is a pissant country than can get hosed, basically.

...and Putin is only realizing this now...

They can't "get hosed" when they have kompromat.

And the Russian press getting "cold feet" is almost certainly a ploy.
i think it's more of a budding realization that trump is a "careful what you wish for" type of leader.

like russia could release the kompromat, if they have it, but think about what that would actually do. it might risk provoking such intense anti-russian sentiment in the U.S. that it'd probably be worse than not doing it -- were, say, trump to carry on the status quo.

i mean, the russian dealings are crooked as hell -- it's damned traitorous. but it also fits in with putin's characteristically short-sighted approach to dealing with poo poo.

assuming the kompromat is real yeah trump won't wanna do anything to chap putin's rear end (kompromat could be the pisstapes or just a bunch of personal debt to russian banks)

but honestly even if they don't have any kompromat on him and there's nothing technically pressuring him to play nice with putin I think trump genuinely wants to be friends with putin out of his kind of weird sense of loyalty that he has to people who he sees as having been nice to him

like he let cristie hang around for months because he just didn't want to tell him to gently caress off

yeah trump is shameless and vindictive enough to a) not care and b) retaliate in full force before he gets impeached that releasing the kompromat is a very poor tactical decision. plus he already owns 20% of the russian state oil business lammo what can they even do to him

How is Putin short sighted? In a matter of about five to ten years, with very little effort, he successfully threw multiple liberal democratic rivals into disarray, and began the destabilization of NATO. I mean, holy poo poo, he might be a super-rich, evil fucker, but I have to give him credit, he's a master at accomplishing foreign relations goals.

yeah this sums up my feeling actually

like i don't think he's the fascist caricature, although i think his round-em-up immigration stuff is terrible. i would say he's more similar to silvio berlusconi here -- who by the way declared a state of emergency and was in some ways harsher on immigrants.

i think where trump is worse (in terms of what people are thinking) is the corruption and -- this is not explored enough -- his connections to mob types. he was this "legitimate" face in the crooked new york real estate and atlantic city casino business. the way he talks and acts to me screams mafia and being around a lot of mobsters.

He is Silvio Berlusconi only more of a buffoon and hiring mostly white supremacists.
