New world order: Putin dies, successor adopts democracy and joins NATO, Trump leaves NATO and goes full authoritarian, US becomes new dictatorship while Russia becomes new leader of the free world.

"Fallen at his command post," eh? Sounds like what they'd report if Trump choked to death on a hamberder while on the toilet.

Hopefully Trump and Putin’s bodies take care of the problems for the world sooner rather than later
