Trump is someone who seems to have imbalanced midset, in order to get ahead he's being continuously taking drastic decisions which has dug his own path back while everyone else gets a new reason to criticize him whenever he makes a new move. In this case too, it clearly seems like he's giving the Russians more priority than his own countrymen.
He is just trying to show something that he wanna let people see about him which he himself can't really be !
Just wanna see him get replaced real quicK !!
2020 Elections come fast man !
