Putin can flex his power by showing the world that he can ignore Trump.

(2,357 posts)This is poor theater at best. Krasnov is trying to insulate himself from personal responsibility. That has been a common behavior his entire life. It is why he always claims to not know what DHS and ICE are doing.
Im sure Hitler would have claimed the Holocaust stemmed solely from Himmler and Heydrichs orders. Plausible deniability.
That is what hes trying to establish.

Hey, Donnie Dipshit. Putin called. He said he reserved a nice suite for you on the seventh floor of a Moscow hotel.
