Do you think their name might possibly rhyme with "rump?" As in "spanked in the rump with a Forbes magazine by a porn star you're cheating on your wife with?"
A past preferred candidate? Trump has been a straight up Russian stooge since the fucking 1980s. I am so sick of the media tip toeing around this shit. Gee, I wonder if it's because more than half the media was bought by the same handful of right-wing douchebags that are promoting Trump and Russian interests. The real coup happened in 2016.
What a surprise! Putler wants to install the guy on whom he has a strong compromat collection in the White House as a sock puppet. Shocking!
Trump might not understand much, but he understands power, and he knows that Putler has powers over him. So as much as Trump kicks ass of those under him, he sucks ass to Putler.
