26. The fact is that Putin despises Trump and thinks he's an idiot.

Trump, however, believes that Putin and he are best buds. The Kremlin got a big laugh when Trump bragged about his "miracle negotiator" role. They'll have four years to kick him around and laugh their asses off. They know he's a joke. What Putin understands is the threat of annihilation. Nothing else. Trump and "reality" don't co-exist.
