Various news agencies have been reporting on the disturbing regularity with which Russia gets the upper hand in situations involving their President Putin and our President Trump.
Putin has always been blunt about his relationship with Trump, sometimes using a baseball metaphor to explain.
“To me, it is a simple thing. I enjoy exploiting your president. It is like your throwing of baseball. …. always Donald is catcher, while I am pitcher.
Think of bunk bed. If we were a bunk bed, I would be the top and Donald would be the squishy bottom.
Which may explain the nasty rash President Trump has on his face, seen only in unguarded moments when his makeup crew is at arm’s length.
White House physician Ronny Jackson points out that due to his age, the president’s chin is unable to withstand the constant slapping of Vladimir Putin’s hefty nut sack against it.
“This isn’t about the president’s cholesterol, or even his ability to kneel for long periods. It’s just about the aging epidermis on the chin of a 71 year old man.
Russia’s news agency, Interfax, says that President Putin is looking forward to the announced “not too distant” meeting with Trump.
Through a translator Putin affirmed that he has been saving himself for a marathon session with the president, “to once more give him a traditional Russian gum massage.”
