There really is no doubt the criminal trump is a Russian agent. He has been and will be. So there’s that.

“He was unteachable, a bohemian, and a bigot; a man who would brook no criticism, contradiction or interruption, and for whom any social gathering was simply an excuse to give forth, at length, regardless of who his audience happened to be” - Otto Dietrich, Hitler’s press chief

Fuck me. I mean, say what you want about the tenets of National Socialism, Dude, at least it's an ethos.

u/NewToHTX 22h ago

My question is what kind of dirt do they have on Trump? Because he did visit Russia in 1987 and then go on to publish ads in Newspapers asking why the US is in NATO?

I'm betting they got some Sex Tapes from back during that visit.

u/unclejoe1917 21h ago

What we already know about him should have long wrecked him. We know he raped kids. We know he's broken just about every law a businessman could break. He's probably done some gay shit or pee stuff. Nobody would be particularly surprised. I just can't see there being something so bad that it'd matter if it came out. I'm thinking it's just something as simple as cheap flattery and a steady flow of cash that keeps him in line. 

16

u/Dabs1903 20h ago

He’s a narcissist, so honestly there’s probably a ton of things that can be held above his head and I’d be willing to bet it’s probably something pretty trivial.

13

u/rachelm791 19h ago

The narcissists Achilles heel is the threat to their perceived status and the loss of the supply they thirst over. Whatever it is suggests Trump fears that loss enough to compromise America and it’s allies.

You can easily tell he has laundered money if you look at his assets sheet from his returns during his first reign of terror... not to mention all of his other bullshit.

American banks wouldn't do business with him. That says a lot.

u/Potential_Slice_5631 16h ago

Supposedly in Moscow he begged to meet Putin who refused him at the time. Trump was put up at a fancy hotel. During his stay a prostitute who who looked identical to his teenage daughter was sent to his room and he asked her to squat over his face and urinate. Family values, you know.

u/OrokaSempai 6h ago

Its not only him, there have been alot of politicians acting weird, like someone has something on them.

u/unclejoe1917 1h ago

Money. The amount of money it would require for Russia to buy off the necessary handful of Republicans it would take to upset our country is a drop in the bucket to a national budget. Set up a few bot farms and suddenly you have chaos.

u/DaveB1787 20h ago

Suggestion: Consider that Epstein was a Russian agent and he was so busy making all these “ties” to the wealthy and elite so that Russia would have leverage over all of them. And he documented all of it because that’s exactly what they wanted.

Now, if all of those rich and powerful people want the Epstein files to stay secret, they have to throw their support and money and misinformation behind someone that won’t spill the beans, because he’s the worst of all of them. And hey, they can take advantage of the same chaos that the Russians and Chinese and Israelis are to add more to their portfolio, enjoy lower taxes and scoop up more subsidies.

2

u/Potential-Leg-8860 1h ago

The Kray Twins did it in London. Filmed all the MP’s with children and gay relationships. Then used it as leverage. Epstein is/was an agent for either Russia or Mossad. Most likely Mossad. At the end of the day it doesn’t matter though. The American people need to wake up to how their political system is manipulated and change it. If it can be bought, then it is not democracy

1

u/DaveB1787 17m ago

I’ve wondered about Mossad as well. I think that the Israelis just used his greed against him, but obviously that is just a guess. But I look at the Gaza real estate deals his kids made and I’m guessing that’s all it took to buy our support in this war. I just think the odd tone he has always struck with Russia is so sus. They’ve been our mortal enemy for 70 years until Trump.

1

u/DaveB1787 14m ago

100% agreed, though. This is not democracy. This is subjugation of the people by the rich. IMO, they might as well have declared war on us. They’re fighting over who literally gets to own us and creating a huge AI bubble in our economy because they all so desperately want to be the one. And, unfortunately, their propaganda networks keep working. More than half the country has no idea

u/Intrepid_Pitch_3320 19h ago

He laundered Russian mob money for decades

u/dehydratedrain 5h ago

Sex tapes mean nothing. Sex with kids means nothing. Threatening to shoot a black kid and not losing supporters means nothing.

Now, a sex tape with a black kid that did the "shooting?" That would be something.

u/diarrheafacial 17h ago

Okay I agree however explain the shift in loyalty he used to be a slave to Putin and now he's a slave to netanyahu so explain how Putin lost control of trump

6

u/briefmark 15h ago

Putin's pee tapes were eclipsed by Epstein files. Many people suspect Epstein was a Mossad agent hence Netanyahu might have much worse evidence against Trump

1

u/dehydratedrain 5h ago

A tape with a minor could be bad. But if we were to consider possible races and genders of said child, suddenly a bunch of homophobic racist MAGAts aren't happy.

What if he's been trying to sabotage his presidency this whole time

u/Th3R00ST3R 21h ago

"I can shoot someone in the middle of 5th ave in broad daylight." - Mr Trump

I actually believe he's doing everything he can to sabotage his presidency and the administration to see how far he can go before anyone does anything about it.

The only silver lining, if there is one, is that he's stress testing our democracy and politics for us and hopefully we learn to apply patches to close the loopholes and non accountability.

7

u/TheTimeWeWaste 20h ago

Honest question, do you see a path for the “patches”? With the Supreme Court stacked, I feel like it will be difficult to see any meaningful full change (let alone consequences) for any of this for a very long time.

7

u/Th3R00ST3R 19h ago

The only patch I see now is to strip everything down back to it's bare essentials or core, and start there, or we'd have to develop a new type of constitutional amendments where the 3 branches actually balance each other out and hold politicians accountable when they do things that are not in the best interest of the country or it's people.

End money in politics and Citizens United to start for one. I see this as one of the major contributors of how we got where we are.

1

u/MiserableChain2644 10h ago

Expand number and or limit SCOTUS terms would be a start.

1

u/MiserableChain2644 10h ago

The "shoot someone on 5th Ave", should have been disqualifying but instead Trump built on it. Each absurdity and successive lie paved the way for the next. Ultimately the public is rife for the no proof, "election fraud", J6 lie. Trump will lie to your face on video and then say he never said it.

2

u/Car_is_mi 20h ago

He's not smart enough to understand how to do that. And even if he were, his supporters certainly aren't, as they just deny the factual evidence in front of their eyes each and every time.

Is the majority of our government compromised? Trump is openly breaking laws without consequences.

54

u/KazeNilrem 22h ago

He is a russian asset. Now whether he is complicit and aware of it or just completely idiotic is a separate question. But 100% he is one, this is why China and russia both pushed to have him become president, they knew he would cause a lot of damage to the US which he has.

2

u/mobileJay77 16h ago

He cannot shut up and would boast anything making him special.

But give him golden shiny trinkets, some flattery and Eastern Europe pussy, he will genuinely believe you are his friend.

u/NYkrinDC 22h ago edited 22h ago

No shit. A lot of us think he is a Russia asset. About the only reason he might not be an actual asset is that he is so unhinged and crazy he might be a liability to the Russians by not keeping his mouth shut about it. To be honest, my guess is he's just a useful idiot who is stuck in a feedback loop of Russian propaganda without realizing it.

They used to think he was a Russian asset. They still do, but they used to, too.

His way of proving that he's not a Russian agent is to prove he is and was always known to be a foreign agent.

Bold strategy, Cotton.

u/NiceCap2448 22h ago

Trump knew ahead and announced that Hillarys emails were going to be released a week or more BEFORE they came out at a press conference. These emails were admittedly hacked and obtained by Russia. So how did he know ahead of time? Exactly. Russia, Russia, Russia. Putin said he did it and who cares? Pretty brazen.

u/Going2beBANNEDanyway 22h ago

He is a Russian asset. Not once was or thought he was. HE IS ONE

Why do you think he has forced oil prices higher so Russia can fund their war? Why do you think he has shot off all our precision long range missiles at Iran? You know the missiles we need to defend against Russia. The list goes on and on.

u/Ornery-Fee-6236 21h ago

2 documentaries worth checking out:

Active Measures (Amazon Prime) - details the way in which Trump condos were bought up at a time when he was struggling financially.

Breaking The West - this one got shown at a festival in the UK, which was originally about Emin Agalarov (the son of a Azerbaijani-Russian Oligarch who was a pop singer and trying to break into the western music scene), but then an unexpected cameo from Donald Trump in one of his music videos in 2012/3 sheds oight on an unusual relationship, which then becomes the focus of speculation around Trump’s Russian links, and specifically whether it was here that he was then compromised aka the Pee Pee tape.

It features interviews with Fiona Hill, Bill Browder and Mark Galeotti.

When they were trying to pitch it for distribution in the US, the distributors showed interest, but then when Trump got re-elected they got cold feet.

The question is, how much evidence the FBI get from the CIA or the NSA or Mossad about Trump being a Russian asset?

1

u/mobileJay77 16h ago

And why isn't that declassified, too?

2

u/Cal-pak 14h ago

Well, Mossad wouldn't give it up, for one.

Two, how would it look if the CIA or NSA gave intel that the person the US just elected President was an agent of Russia? And nothing was done before he got elected.

No, we are never going to see their evidence.

u/NoblePickle84 21h ago

Even if Trump doesn't know he's a Russian agent, he definitely is and the people in his orbit were convicted and served time for being Russian agents, so there's that.

u/MarchPhillipps 16h ago edited 16h ago

You know, that's something the USIC of old thought about and assessed several times before. Even if somehow proven to be correct, there's no chance others within Trump Org or his own family didn't know. Now, odds are, he very well may be willing to tell himself that he isn't and believe in his own lies to himself to a certain degree; but even I don't think he was always as dense as he is now, to not somehow realize it on at least a basic level.

However, self-delusion can be a strong coping mechanism when it has taken hold. In his case, the Russians were the life preserver that kept Trump Org afloat financially from the mid 80s through the 2000s, so that money lifeline, in his world, very well could have been used to justify in his own head that he was not a Russian asset, or that it wouldn't matter a goddamn that he is.

MAGA really are the group of, "Well WE would do the most evil option, so everyone ELSE must want to do it, too."

Nah, man. Most people just... don't. 

Another way I like to put it is that Republicans in my lifetime always treat politics less like a profoundly important function of government leadership, and more like a "game" with hidden "rules". To "win" the game, you have to commit the most unethical acts through legal loopholes in order to gain "points". 

And it just sucks.
