If Trump was Putin’s puppet, he wouldn’t TACO out of his disputes with Europe. Greenland wouldn’t be in Danish hands. Hell, Putin’s puppet might even want to join the war in Ukraine on Russia’s side.
The only person Trump cares about is Trump. The best Putin can hope for is that Trump destroys a bunch of shit indiscriminately, which he is doing quite well. Some of the destroyed shit could be Russian assets, which Russia will have to endure.
He listens to what Putin tells him to do, mishears most of it, misunderstands most of what’s left, and in five minutes has forgotten most of what was left after that, and tries to turn whatever remains into a scam that’ll benefit him.
But, inasmuch as he is able to want to do something that doesn’t directly and immediately benefit him personally, he tries to be a good puppet, at least when he remembers the blackmail material the ex-KGB bastard has on him.
He’s just bad at it, as he is at everything else except at avoiding paying his bills.
the only thing is that turmp is practically owned by putin, so I don’t know how that changes things.
To be fair, he’s not owned entirely by putin. He’s the live grenade that Russia, Israel, and Saudi Arabia are fighting for control over
Don’t forget the Silicone Valley tech-bros.
Trump is owned by whoever flattered/bribed him the most recently.
tech ho-bros, my dude
The dumbest game of hot potato

No one said he was a good puppet.
