It appears to me that he not going to duck and run. There is a Rex Tillerson faction that is going to support him.
I have little problem imagining that Putin has some kompromat on Trump. In fact, I find it unimaginable that he doesn't.

A gal I'm sure you, a Putin fanboy, despises, Anne Applebaum, summarizes my views on Trump/Putin fairly succinctly.

Information doesn’t have to be secret to be shocking. Trump doesn’t have to be a Manchurian candidate who has been hypnotized or recruited by foreign intelligence. It’s enough that he has direct and indirect links to a profoundly corrupt and violent foreign dictator, whose policies he admires, whose advisers he shares and whose slogans he uses. That’s kompromat enough for me.
