(1) Rick Clough, NATO Makes It Rain.

Note:
(a) summary underneath the title in print: Defense contractors exult as Trump tells NATO members not to rely on the US
(b) Jessica P Ogilvie, NYTimes Reports on New Phrase, 'Make It Rain.' The Gloss, Feb 4, 2011.

"But inside the Kremlin, the initial euphoria over having a Putin admirer in the White House is giving way to skepticism that any meaningful detente with the US can be achieved, according to four senior officials in Moscow.

Note:
(a) summary underneath the title in print: The Russians now see the president as unpredictable
