I don’t understand the contradiction? Russia at most gets what it can capture and hold? Why would they oppose on Donnie boy fucking what remains ukraine?
And Putin helped put D in the white house(https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/jul/15/kremlin-papers-appear-to-show-putins-plot-to-put-trump-in-white-house)! He even pardoned russian secret service members captured by the US! Don’t misunderstand, I don’t think Trump wouldn’t put his own kids into a meatgrinder for some rusty pennies, but his back was already skratched and now its his turn! All his lackeys would flee if he didn’t scratch back!
Was there a contradiction? Point is, there is no loyalty beyond that. If the favours for Russia were to no longer serve his own, personal interests (or at least, for as long as he believes them to do so, let's not forget he is also very much fallible), he'd not support them. There is no ideological solidarity, or alliance or higher loyalty is what I was getting at. Just his belief that the world is fundamentally strong people preying on and using the weak, and that he thinks that he can cooperate with Putin on that - conditionally.
I moght have misunderstood your previous comment sry, but why would his loyalty matter? He is serving Russian interests, why would it matter if his dick grows hard or limp from it?
Ah, to me, it is important to consider where it comes to the US foreign policy going forward in their era of fascism. I live in the EU, and I guess that was the foremost issue on my own mind. And I am not expecting something like a Russia-US-alliance myself, because of that lack of mutual loyalty. Only cooperation of convenience.
