The Foreign Policy article states Moscow power players are worried President Trump will not survive his his first four years in office.
“What the Kremlin fears most today is that Trump may be ousted or even killed.
His ouster, Kremlin insiders argue, is bound to unleash a virulent and
bipartisan anti-Russian campaign in Washington,” states the piece.
“The Kremlin
is perfectly aware that Democrats want to use Russia to discredit and possibly
impeach Trump while Republican elites want to use Russia to deflate and
discipline Trump. The Russian government fears not only Trump’s downfall, of
course, but also the possibility that he could opportunistically switch to a
tough anti-Moscow line in order to make peace with hawkish Republican leaders
in Congress.”
