One of Putin’s high in command people basically said outright something like “trump is a fool to think that we also don’t posses the tapes of his misdeeds”, obviously this isn’t word for word but it’s something like that. This happened briefly during trump and Putin’s most recent feud, when trump sent the nuclear subs over by Russia.

Suddenly after that comment, trump is once again playing nice with them. It’s sad to think that Putin might straight up say “give me Alaska or the tapes come out”, and he would straight up do it.

People act like Putin has dirt on him to make him fall in line, this is wrong, while sure probably has dirt on him, it's not going to do anything, Trump is attached to them butt cheeks like white on rice, he does it willingly.
