Putin masturbates over the thought of destroying the US. He can't do it militarily so he does that by sowing division, spreading false narratives, putting Americans against Americans and ultimately having a US president who is his lapdog

That doesn't explain why a former president is his lapdog. Putin has his motivations which are obvious. Trump's motivation beyond being a greedy, selfish, morally devoid asshole are not so clear.

Well a motivation could be his narcissism (among other reasons)
