Trump will still be useful to Putin at the very least for propaganda purposes. Imagine Trump from Moscow railing against the US and its leaders. That would be a good thing for Putin's ongoing campaign to sow discord in our country.

Plus, I think Trump will save some secrets as a form of insurance vis a vis Putin and Russia.

Putin won't cut off Trump due to what will be Trump's continued usefulness to Russia.
