Trump Confesses that the United States Is a Client of Russia -- EmptyWheel
https://www.emptywheel.net/2025/08/18/trump-confesses-that-the-united-states-is-a-client-of-russia/Trump Confesses that the United States Is a Client of Russia
Such a clear analysis of putin's pawning of trump. Much of the meat is above the quoted excerpt.
The hold Putin has over Trump is existential for Trump. And unless we can expose that, the US will increasingly become a mere satellite of Russia.
Trump is not making America great. He is gutting America.
This is not just about forcing Ukraine to surrender.
Trump has surrendered. And going forward, it is only going to get worse.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
