text: A plot hatched jointly by Trump and Putin in their recent tête-à-tête? A move serves both Trump and Putin.
  
  Trump would have been wanting to do that anyway - less govt. is good govt. Now he does not have to pay the political price. 755 less people to fire and blame it on the Congress.
  
  And Putin will have less US interference in Russia.
  
  Have your cake and eat it too.
  
  Both Trump and Putin working to destroy the US Establishment. Once Trump has his 4-8 years, everything American - the Executive, the Judiciary, the Congress, the Military - will be a shadow of its ere self. Suits both anti-establishment Trump and Putin who did the same to his system.
  
  Will Canada be better or worse with a weaker southern neighbour?
