I just wanted to put this on record, if anyone thought otherwise.

Putin is what may be called an enlightened despot. Provided one does not openly attack him or the system that supports him you are very likely to be left alone. Private griping is generally tolerated. But he is a dangerous man to cross.
Trumpism is not a philosophy or a movement. It's a cult.
