You’ve no doubt heard of Steven Seagal. He’s a martial arts expert who’s done some films that highlight his fighting skill.<\/p>\n

Let’s face it. He can’t act his way out of wet paper bag.<\/p>\n

He’s now been enlisted by Donald J. Trump’s BFF, Vladimir Putin to — and this is so good — work on improving U.S.-Russia relations.<\/p>\n

Wow, man! Isn’t that right in Steven Seagal’s wheelhouse? Actually, um, no. It isn’t.<\/p>\n

Seagal is a Russian citizen these days. He appears frequently on Russian state TV to talk about, oh I don’t know, this or that.<\/p>\n

Now he’s been tasked with shoring up Russia’s relations with the United States?<\/p>\n

Still … Steven Seagal?<\/p>\n\n
