At this Putin is unwise. You want someone at an arm's length, and not someone likely to act as if a jilted lover.
I think that Putin thinks President Trump and the GOP majority far easier to blackmail at the opportune time. Maybe a little conflict between China and Russia? Like who takes over if North Korea goes belly-up or some former Soviet republic in central Asia chooses to get cozier with one or the other? Or perhaps snipping off a bit of Alaska?
