and Trump will listen. When we all knew that Trump had no ethics, no boundaries, this is the kind of demonstration we didn't want. We didn't want to see Trump's cravenness. We didn't want him to bend a knee to Qatar wealth. We don't seemingly want to talk about Putin's actual wealth when, just a few years ago, it was known that Putin's wealth rivals the world's richest. Putin can and will promise Trump anything, as long as he doesn't actually produce. And he won't. That's not the Russian way. Trump gets nothing, but Putin still wants Trump to play along. And he will.

Trump will do nothing because he is not a world player.
