The Book of Trump Chapter 38: Dmitry Medvedev

In this chapter, Ghost turns his attention to Dmitry Medvedev, exploring how his rise, presidency, and partnership with Vladimir Putin reveal critical patterns in modern geopolitics. Using Medvedev’s biography as a lens, Ghost walks through Russia’s post-Soviet power struggles, the Aluminum Wars, Gazprom restructuring, oligarch crackdowns, and the emergence of competing factions inside the Kremlin. He breaks down Medvedev’s technocratic “Strategy 2020,” the Russian-Georgian war, the tandemocracy with Putin, national security reforms, and the deeper geopolitical echoes between Russia, the West, and today’s shifting alliances. Through Medvedev’s story, Ghost highlights the recurring historical “reruns” that shape current events, showing how this era set the stage for today’s multipolar world, and why understanding Medvedev is essential to understanding Trump, Putin, and the broader sovereign movement.
