We are all so caught up in the embarrassment of Trump, but we have overlooked the more obvious...

[Trueblue Texan]

…risk for our nation: Putin is going to murder Trump. This is just a matter of time. When Trump is done destroying the foundations of American democracy, Putin will no longer need Trump and his murder will be imminent. I know there will be some that will be happy for this to happen, but this is a grave danger to our nation and we need to help people understand what to expect. We need to spread the word. This is what Putin does when he no longer needs people. There are far more intelligent people that could replace Trump. I am far more alarmed than I was before I realized this. We need to alert people to this! ASAP!!!!

1. What exactly does Putin get from "murdering" Trump? Even if he's already done his bidding...

what is his motivation to do so then?

2. And that's a problem...why?

I think P will spill all the beans when he's done with T.

4. And then what?

Sit and laugh as the country crumbles?
Just asking.

3. Will Vance go out the window also?

Or will he be the smarter useful idiot?

5. Trump will never lose his usefulness to Putin.

My opinion.

Trump has the kind of boorish thuggish ugly American appeal which keeps serving Putin's interests.

Putin will grieve the loss of Trump.

(Assuming Putin himself outlives Trump.)

6. There is not enough tin foil in the world

for me to think anything of the sort is likely to happen. There is zero motivation for Putin to do anything to Trump, as Trump is doing the things that are good for Putin.

7. Answering this should answer all...

...The destruction of our nation will come faster than any of us expect. When Trump has gutted our nation, destroyed all avenues of prosperity for the nation, and destroyed any trust investors have in our potential, Trump will be utterly useless to Putin. Not only has he has shown himself capable only as a destroyer of wealth, but only a regime change will create global confidence that this nation has investment potential. No way will Trump willingly step down. Putin is ultimately interested in gaining more power and influence in the world and increasing his wealth. Trump ain't his man for that AT ALL. You can bet Trump's days are numbered and really, as good Americans, we need to make him aware of Putin's plans. Trump has been so stupidly naive, thinking he can somehow outsmart Putin, he is missing the grave danger he is in. Putin wants a smart loyalist in there, someone who has financial savvy, who will do as he's told but not let his ego get in the way like Trump ALWAYS does. He may have it look like an accident or natural causes, but once Putin is done with him, Trump is completely finished on this planet. Why would he let him live when Trump has so much on him?

8. From Bluesky

"I can't think of a faster way to undermine the country than simultaneously firing government workers, cutting scientific research, rolling back protections on public health & environment, & cutting essential services. It's like the US was defeated in war and is being occupied by a hostile enemy."

It won't be long, folks. Trump is a fool to trust Putin not to destroy him.

9. If that were true wouldn't

Putin be killing anyone who got in Trump's way? I think they are purposely destroying our government, just to rebuild it before the midterms. That way he can boost about fixing the government.

10. That may be the Rethugs' plan, but it's not Putins. He knows this is his last chance. nt

11. Do not underestimate the effect of perception...it's why propaganda is effective. nt
