Quoting Lord Acton, "Absolute power corrupts absolutely." Donald Trump already had a head start. Even his ardent supporters would admit he is transactional, and perhaps in different words, greedy.
The Supreme Court's new presidential immunity doctrine removes the guard rails from a future Trump presidency. He has a new project in Saudi Arabia. Surely the Saudi's will be granted most favored nation status.
What is it worth to Putin for the United States to withdraw support from Ukraine, or better yet from Nato entirely? That would be the quid, with a delayed quo after Trump's term ends.
America will be standing on the corner, scantily clad, offering her wares for sale. Morality must prevail. Stifle your qualms. The Supreme Court has raised the stakes. You must bet on Biden.
