    I predict Turnip to be so desperate for a “deal” and to make some headlines, and to feel important, that a cold blooded killer like Putin is just going to lead him (and us) right to the slaughter. I feel like our rinky dink villain is going to meet with an actual dictator and is completely delusional about his ability to hang. This is about to be a small town tough guy picking a fight with an actual UFC fighter. Like one of these YouTube exhibition things where a loud mouth has their bluff called by an actual trained fighter.

    Trump wants the oil, full stop.

    He is also going to stop the import of potash from Canada, the next best place to get it is Russia. Not that farmers will be needing fertilizer for a lot of crops as they will not have the workers to work their farms.
