Your unstable if you think Putin is unstable and trump isn't.
Putin couldn't give a rats arse if trump levels tariffs on SA oil, Russian oil will find a home in China or etcetcetc. Trump played the ultra polarized planet card 3 years ago, and in doing so hes brought about more division than since the second world war. Putin, plays a long game and the fact he seeks to exploit the divisions created by us foreign policy is only because there are cracks opened by the us and tbh what does Putin owe us. Since 1945 its been the idea of every administration and western govt to attack Russia at every opportunity. Roll on 1990 and the capitulation of the old SU but that wasnt enough and the encroachment on its borders has been incessant. Why? Dont give me the horse**** about freedom and democracy. What ******. In 1990 the west and in particular the us thought they were going to go in and pillage the fkn place like they want to do with vz, Libya, Iraq, Iran but along comes Putin to replace the schizo Yeltsin and its game on again.
Putin is clever, popular and he exposes the western hegemony for what it is. Actually he doesnt, he sets the stage for these fkrs to expose themselves.
Anyone with a notion that Trump or US is acting on their behalf are deluded.
US can cut 5 mbod and that will support oil prices and place them in the same league of price fixers as all comers Russia and OPEC. What a turn for the books.
