It is well known that Putin is the richest man on earth. He is into money and power even though he was a communist member of the KGB as a Colonel in East Germany before the fall of the Berlin Wall.
He is not trying to necessarily politically control the U.S. but rather to profit financially from everything that happens in the U.S.
What better person to blackmail than Donald Trump who is interested in the very same thing?
So, as I was listening to Michael Cohen speak about his experiences as Trump's Fixer from 2007 until 2018 this occurred to me that Putin already controls everything financial that happens in Russia including the Russian Mafia both in Russia and in the U.S. and around the world everything makes more sense when seen through this filter.
Cohen said none of the Russian Oligarchs would have money without Putin's blessing. So, whatever money they have it is really more to manage for Putin than anything else. If the Russian oligarchs to anything he doesn't like he demotes or kills them just like any other mafia boss worldwide would.
Trump is likely in the same position as any Russian Oligarch where he knows if he doesn't do exactly what Putin wants he will be killed along with all members of his family.
This is likely what Trump knows will happen at this point if he disobeys Putin.
