He is getting instructions constantly from PUtin and does as he's told. PUtin utilizes both the carrot and the stick to keep dotard donnie compliant. drumpf on his own is cunning, an animalistic predator who prefers instincts to facts. He is not smart in any way and is definitely drug addled and from those who have known him a long time, on the road of dementia, and has no curiosity or sense of humor at all. Fun to him is hurting someone or having a sycophant slobber over him, even if he has to pay them to do this, he doesn't care as long as the camera captures it. If he wasn't born rich we'd have never heard anything about him, his daddy and $$ bailed him out all his life, then the $$ people got behind him and now they are the ones propping up the flat blob of hatred.
