Papa Putin
It has always been a mystery
Why Trump has this strange history
Of egregiously doing Putin’s bidding
The motivation for which is hidden.
Everything he has done to diminish us
Has to Putin been an undeniable plus.
Alienating allies with abandon and of late
Lobbying for restoration of Russia into the G8
To me though it seems quite clear
This relationship is based on fear
He was similarly under Fred Trump’s sway
Who often bailed him out and made his money troubles go away.
Contrary to the myth in his book The Art….
Trump is just not very smart.
With failed Casinos –where the house always wins
You’d have to work at failing …where to begin??
And as a man spectacularly corrupt
He managed to become 5 times bankrupt
Which is where Fred and Putin seamlessly coalesce
In relieving poor Donald of his self-induced duress.
No Fred’s millions made Trump solvent with green
And Putin similarly miraculously intervened
For no legitimate bank would loan to this grifter
Who ruthlessly schemed with his corrupt sister
To steal from his niece her inheritance
Without even a backward glance
So billionaire Oligarchs swoop in with a loan
And that’s why Putin Donald doth own…
To a man who survived The Access Hollywood Tape,
And paid off a porn star and managed to escape–
Although Michael Cohen until recently remained in Jail
A minor pee tape is only an inconsequential tale.
No, he fears Putin … just like he feared his dad.
For without both he would have been had.
For with both there was debilitating dependency
But Putin’s control is in the ascendency.
For if Putin withdraws his love and financial support
Trump will be finished to you I report
And if that were to happen—and I think I am not amiss
Trump would be looking into an inescapably deep abyss.

Trump has been dependent on Putin since at least 1987. Russian kleptocrats, most from the KGB ripped off the Russian People, then laundered much of the monies through Trump’s Casinos and New York condominiums. DeutcheBank was the only bank that would loan to Trump (a billion I think). It has a long history of laundering Russian monies and has paid significant penalties to the federal government. At some point (since the Supreme Court Just ruled Trump is not above the law) we hopefully will learn the truth about his finances. All bets are on The Russian Connection. Mary Trump, in her until now unpublished book Too Much And Never Enough: How My Family Created The World’s Most Dangerous Man makes the point, that contrary to what Donald says, he was terrified of his father.
