17. Though equally sinister, Putin is smarter, more disciplined, and younger

Putin is everything Trump wishes he could be. Trump has no idea what he is doing from one day to the next. He just likes being in control and looking powerful.

Though he is truly dangerous to us all, I think a smarter and younger Trump would be even more dangerous.
