Putin is celebrating
What does that tell you?
That Trump is tougher with America's friends and allies than he is with America's enemies. Hillary Clinton had his number:
In January 2016 while debating another candidate for the Democrats' presidential race, Bernie Sanders, Ms Clinton was asked about her relationship with Mr Putin.
"It's interesting. We've had some very tough dealings with one another," she said with a little smile.
That was an understatement.
For the last seven years, Ms Clinton and Mr Putin have been in a tit-for-tat battle of words, with their language sometimes becoming quite heated.
The two first encountered each other in an official capacity while Ms Clinton was serving as secretary of state, and Mr Putin was taking some time off from being president of Russia by being prime minister of Russia.
At the time, life was good for Mr Putin.
Though he was frustrated by being constitutionally relegated to the number two job behind his sidekick Dmitry Medvedev, the Russian people were generally supportive of him and he felt like a man on top.
When Ms Clinton and Mr Putin met, she thought he was trying to establish dominance and she called it "manspreading".
She said he took her into his inner sanctum and showed her a map of the places he was intending to tag polar bears. He asked her to extend an invitation to her husband Bill to come along.
When she jokingly offering to go instead, Mr Putin was apparently unimpressed.
