Throughout most of his life, Trump was a completely apolitical, silver-spoon playboy blowing through daddy’s money and partying. He was not interested in politics and rarely registered a political opinion. He ignored the press except for engaging in self-promotion. When he gets back from his 2013 Miss Universe pageant in Moscow he suddenly becomes very political and outspoken. He rails against whoever is in charge to the point that he changes his voter affiliation several times to get more coverage by being in the opposition. He starts talking about one day running for president. In 2016, then House Speaker Kevin McCarthy told Paul Ryan and others, “There’s two people I think Putin pays: Rohrabacher and Trump. Swear to God.” Former Rep. Dana Rohrabacher was known as a fervent defender of Putin and Russia. Trump met with Putin in Helsinki and never mentioned what they talked about in private. No notes were ever released. The CIA reported an inordinate number of its spies being killed after he was elected. He attempted to extort Ukraine into creating a scandal that would get him reelected in return for giving them needed aid. That bullshit earned him his first impeachment. He thinks Ukraine should be part of Russia, not an independent country. He's called Putin "highly respected, "genius" and “savvy” for declaring Ukraine’s Donbas region independent and using it as a pretext to send Russian forces in. He wants to pull out of the NATO alliance. He tried to get Putin to let him build a highrise in Moscow. He bought a Palm Beach property in 2004 for $41 million and sold it to Russian oligarch Dmitry Rybolovlev just four years later for $95 million. He revealed highly classified information to Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak and foreign minister Sergei Lavrov while they were IN THE OVAL OFFICE. I could go on and on. He’s been a compromised Russian asset for decades. It's plain as day. Denying it is willful ignorance. washingtontimes.com/news/2015/jun/… washingtonpost.com/world/national… theguardian.com/us-news/2024/a… swalwell.house.gov/issues/russia-… en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trump_Tow…
"Russians make up a pretty disproportionate cross-section of a lot of our assets," Donald Trump Jr. said at a New York real-estate conference in 2008. "We see a lot of money pouring in from Russia." businessinsider.com/donald-trump-j…
@StrictlyChristo Interesting video from interview when he was in Moscow in 2013. He’d often say he didn’t know Putin. Yes, he did.
Let’s not forget the “why,” Putin’s oligarchs have been bailing Trump out and funding his deals since the 80’s when his first casino failed. Hundreds of millions in business loans, he’s so incredibly compromised he wouldn’t clear the background check to push a mop at Walter Reed. **This pic is FM Lavrov meeting with Hamas
@StrictlyChristo Your info is wrong. Trump was never apolitical. He first considered a serious run for president in 1988. Considered it again in 1996. Ran in 2000 under Reform Party. Ran and dropped out early in 2012. He is no neophyte: he’s a career mafia politician trained by Roy Cohn.
@StrictlyChristo It seems he’s had a relationship with various Russian hoodlums for decades. This book essentially proves it. Wonder why we never hear reference to it in the news?
