I’m reading a book by Craig Unger
It’s named: “House of Trump House of Putin”
It describes thirty years Trump’s been under
The auspice of Russian collusion
The book’s filled with firm, detailed reference
Describing Trump’s swift transformation
From being a “person of interest”
To being an “asset” in station
An asset who now is our president
A feat beyond what they believed
That even with their actions pertinent
Was likely for them to achieve
But credit they take and Trump knows it
Without them Trump’s loss would be real
‘Though publicly Trump does deny it
His job’s to pay back for the deal
So what, then, are Putin’s demands
For payback by Trump with his power?
First, sanctions Trump has to remand
Then alter the national order:
Cause NATO to fracture, diminishing,
Support right-wing movements for dominance,
The E.U. to break up, and finishing
Democracy’s role in world prominence,
And also foment world trade wars,
Do little against cyber acts,
Degrade our intelligence corps, …
All these are Vlad Putin’s Trump payback
