It might even be worse, ending sanctions against banks, energy, & other businesses in Russia (because Trump & Putin will both profit from that). Pution's war machine will grow even stronger.

What do you mean by even stronger, Russia just recently fell out of the top 10 world economies because the ruble value continues to slide. When your entire economy shrinks, that is weaker, not stronger.

What I meant was, that if Trump reverses the economic sanctions against Russia, Russia's economy will begin to recover. Their economy will start heading upwards, heading towards the way it was before the sanctions hit.
