Kim Philby, for instance - died a lonely, wretched drunk. Snowden - living in obscurity, nearly forgotten. Various CIA turncoats - have a habit of falling out of one-story buildings in the suburbs of Moscow.

Heh heh.

Isn't there an old saying about being "beaten like a rented mule"? That, too.

In the dominance game, our potus is a complete failure. He will come at Putin's beck and call, not the other way around. What a disgrace.
