Subject: Re: 23 NATO Allies Meet Spending Targets
Short sighted and wrong, as usual. Putin wouldn't have given up on the effect Trump was having on NATO...

Yep. I was debating whether it was worth responding to his lengthy list of errors, but I think you picked a good summary point. It wouldn't benefit Putin until Trump was out. Until then, Trump was doing too much to help Putin (and I'll say "unintentionally", even if I don't think that is determined definitively). Once Biden was in, Trump was of no further use. And associating Biden with his invasion didn't hurt Putin at all (probably helped).
