    When the news first broke, I assumed Russua was behind the ceasefire and had already pulled Trumps strings to their advantage.

    Now I’m wondering if this administration might be too incompetent to be corrupt.

      Of course they’re incompetent. Trump is a Russian asset in that he has a Dollarstore intellect and is easy to manipulate. No bribes necessary.
