Sarah Kendzior has drawn the same conclusion as I have: Trump is being played bigly by people who are smarter and sneakier than he is.

In 1988, Trump tried to get Gorbachev on board with his nuke plan while promoting himself as future pres. Failed. https://t.co/gZKmlgHGwt pic.twitter.com/wkxpoIV44T

Not hard to draw a straight line from this attempt to another: Approaching Putin w/ same argument and this time, he bites. Sheeshuz. https://t.co/P4Hrql0PgF

Agree with this possibility. Trump thinks he finally made his long-desired Russian “deal”. In reality, he’s Putin’s malleable pawn. https://t.co/udH2Kzgata
