Personally I think the leadership is often overlooked. People forget that Putin was the head of the kgb. Which means he rose to the top of arguably one of the worlds most treacherous organization of killers and was impeached or something if I remember correctly and REGAINED THE THRONE so to speak. The kgb were no dummies. He has probably the highest iq out of all the world leaders and certainly the highest personal body count. If I were trump or ANY of the leaders I would treat him just like he is: a fucking dangerous deceptive animal that will kill you.
