I have a feeling that his "public" calls with Vlad are carefully ordered up by Vlad. Vlad, I think, calls him every morning and every night and berates him angrily and tells him what to do. Threatens him and sends him "messengers" and "messages." Occasionally "makes up" with him by cooing little love words at him. It's nothing but an abusive domestic relationship.

And going with "Vladivostok" is such a cliche, like "moon" and "June"

Do not even go there. You just know it will be at least as tacky as this depiction, casino and all.

Alternate theory: Trump has always been scared shitless of Putin. John Bolton is who Putin has told him to hire, because Putin wants the United States to be a weak, pathetic mess who ends up destroying the NATO alliance. Trump didn't want to, he wailed that he doesn't like his MOUSTACHE, NO I WON'T HIRE HIM, but Putin asked him if he'd "noticed" anything funny-tasting about his Big Mac that day for lunch, no? You see? You wouldn't taste a thing. Then Putin coughed: <cough>Skripal<cough>
