Putin’s Ace Sleeper Agent Goes All Out

What a fascinating world, isn’t it?

Just a few days ago, I published an article: Ukraine War (48): Putin’s Death Throes.

President Putin has begun his deathbed struggle. He issued a desperate order to his sleeper agent, Vladimir Trump, his ace operative registered with Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB):

“Isn’t it about time you got your hands dirty? I’m fucking dying here, and you’re still pretending? What fucking use will you be once I’m finished?"

You think I must be joking, right?

No! A sitting British MP Graham Stuard said so!

And so Vladimir Trump could no longer sit still. He rolled up his sleeves.

Russian satellite imagery and missile technology directly enabled Iranian missiles to destroy most American military bases in the Middle East, wiping out tens of billions of dollars’ worth of military equipment that will be difficult to replace, and killing 21 American servicemen. The Houthi militants, backed by Russia and Iran, have just attacked Riyadh Airport in Saudi Arabia, America’s most important ally, causing more than 300 casualties.

Russia is an enemy of the United States, recognised as such across the American political establishment and defined as such by law.

Yet Trump is preparing to hand President Putin the US dollars he desperately needs: $5 billion.

Putin will certainly not spend this money on the welfare of his people. He will use it to kill more Ukrainian women and children, more of America’s allies, and more Americans.

What Putin dreads most, which is the only way to end the war, is Ukraine’s bombing of Russian refineries. So that is what Trump is now pressuring Ukraine to stop.

With the midterm elections looking increasingly precarious, with his boss Putin at his back, Comrade Trump has taken both his mask and gloves off. He no longer worries if his identity as the ace FSB undercover is uncovered, he no longer cares how the civilized world is disgusted by him. He goes all in.

The Joke

Trump announced to the world on his Truth Social platform that Russia and Ukraine had reached an agreement to stop attacking each other’s energy facilities.

One hour later, Russia destroyed a Ukrainian power plant.

Then, when President Zelenskyy was asked about the announcement by reporters, he replied:

“I’ve only just heard about this news. Clearly, Putin doesn’t read Truth Social."

Neither Putin nor Zelenskyy takes Trump seriously.

Why Zelenskyy Can Ignore Trump

A person of character and refinement has friends everywhere. Even people who seem to be of no immediate use to him are his friends.

Partly, this is because he understands that someone who seems unimportant today may be of tremendous help tomorrow. Partly, it is because he is a kind person and people naturally want to befriend him.

But someone like Trump has an enormous ego.

His ego is like a ravenous wolf that can never be satisfied. His sole purpose, day after day, is to keep feeding that wolf. And the food it demands is evidence of his own greatness.

He refuses to acknowledge a legitimate election because his ego cannot possibly accept being defeated. Defeat would be devastating to it.

He launched the war against Iran because the military miracle of capturing Maduro alive could satisfy that wolf only briefly. Almost immediately, it demanded more food.

Such a person is inevitably arrogant, inevitably shortsighted, and easy to offend.

Consequently, he will offend anyone he does not desperately need at that particular moment.

To the person he desperately needs, however, he will promise everything, because he has no intention of honouring any of those promises.

As Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney put it:

“Trump signs all his agreements in pencil."

On Monday, he offends everyone except John, whom he desperately needs. To John, he promises everything.

On Tuesday, Peter becomes the person he needs most. So he tells Peter: “Forget John! He’s nobody! You’re my real friend! I will give you anything you want!"

On Wednesday, he needs Simon to plug his biggest hole. So he tells Simon: “Don’t listen to that idiot Peter! I’ll always be loyal to you!"

On Thursday, he needs John’s help again. He goes back to John.

Guess what John says?

That is Trump.

Why Won’t Zelensky Listen to Him?

First, he has already cut off all material aid to Ukraine. The only thing the US still provides that is useful to Ukraine is intelligence. But even in intelligence, Ukraine’s European allies provide two-thirds of what Ukraine needs. As for the remaining one-third, Ukraine’s own intelligence operations against Russia have been outstanding and have also played a major role. Even if the US cuts off all intelligence sharing, it will not have a decisive impact on the course of the war in Ukraine.

Second, opposition to Russia and support for Ukraine remain quite strong in both American political parties. Trump has already faced considerable condemnation for buying Russian diesel. If Trump orders a complete cutoff of intelligence, the condemnation he faces can only become even greater.

Third, as a member of the Five Eyes intelligence alliance, the US also relies heavily on intelligence from the other four countries. If the US cuts off intelligence sharing with Ukraine, the other four countries may also cut off intelligence sharing with the US.

Fourth, the battlefield in Ukraine has completely overturned the concepts of modern warfare, revealing that the vast majority of the US military’s ground warfare methods are already obsolete. The US military urgently needs to use this battlefield to learn and make corrections. If the US cuts off intelligence share, Ukraine will cut off the US army’s access to this fascinating future war lab.

Therefore, the likelihood of Trump actually cutting off all assistance is very small.

That is why Zelenskyy not only ignores Trump’s demands, but openly mocks him.

John replies:

“Fuck off."
