Dmitry Medvedev, prime minister of Russia and number 2 behind Putin, called President Trump an “incompetent player” who will be “liquidated” by the U.S. establishment. Medvedev pretty much called Trump a bitch and he isn’t wrong. As the Washington Examiner points out, this is more or less a traditional Russian threat and it came from Putin. The sanctions vote in Congress proves that Putin’s useful idiot in the White House is no longer useful.
That’s it for now Back tomorrow with more news.
