Your fb page is gone. Did they tell you why?

Hmmm...on the "plausible" side is the clear fact that even the most true-believing, rabid Soviet asset could not have caused more damage to the USA or been a bigger suck up to Putin. On the other side...it's just doesn't seem that plausible. Trump simply doesn't DO others' bidding. His goldfish brain couldn't stick with a anything for very long, much less a decades-long conspiracy. It's certainly likely he was involved w KGB without being aware, and likely that they used him for money laundering, but nothing like "Now, Danila, we need you to do X and say Y." He's too much of a loose cannon for any good agent handler to get too connected with.

Have you ever looked at Trump's old talk show interviews and such from the 1980s and 90s? He was a totally different person back then with a broad vocabulary and able to speak coherently in complete sentences. Not the bumbling gangster wanna be with the 4th grade speech patterns who can't keep his mouth shut he is today. He did not used to be a "loose cannon". But even as he is today, if you carefully set up the environment that you want that loose cannon to roll around in, you can still get it to destroy what you want it to. No doubt Russia got several good decades out of him as a controlled asset earlier on and now they just fling him down the alley like a bowling ball toward the pins they want him to knock over with the knowledge that he will hit some and not others and they take what they can get with him.

The FACT that is absolutely indisputable is that Putin could not ask for a better ‘friend’ in the WH. To explain this by personal affinity alone seems really far-fetched. Look not at what Trump says but at what he does; it has Krasnov stamped all over it.

Exactly Errant, Vlade couldn’t have asked for a better stooge in the White House! The plan in his first term didn’t work out, because he was surrounded by stunods, with Manafort being the exception. The Russian news was jubilant after the Putin-Trump 2 hour meeting, certainly saying a lot!!

He’s not an AGENT; he’s an ASSET. There’s a distinct difference

Patrick Daniels aka Cromulent1's avatar

True dat Alexandra, great point!!

He gave information willingly, did not wait to be asked, according to the Facebook post. He was making money off them. Highly plausible report. Need more info.

Patrick Daniels aka Cromulent1's avatar

Russian mob paid off Trump’s debt when he was broke! Deutsche was the only bank willing to lend Trump $ which happened to be the money laundering bank of choice outside Russia, of Lavrov and Mogilevich Sue!!

Except that he is ultra receptive to praise whether true, close to true, or not at all!

Yes. His father made him so. :p

Nonono, you dont control him by telling him what to do! Thats a misconception. You control him by understanding exactly what he will do given a specific input in a specific situation. Like a good script writer. And he IS really predictable, on a certain level. if you read the art of the deal, you know the most of it.

And hes ALWAYS acting to increase HIS OWN status and power - and align with people helping him to get there, in a joint venture where he gives them advantages later.

Being a narcissist, he sees everything as an extention of himself, so he just identifies with the US and make them both climb ln power - HE thinks.

But he doesnt count with on this stage, people are way smarter than him, and nobody has more attention than him, so MANY can analyze him into pieces without getting stuck in judging so angrily how "bad" he is, that they miss the pattern.

And that will be his undoing .

Perhaps, knowing Mussayev was a KGB top dog, coupled with the fact that Lavrov an Semion Mogilevich bought Trumps debt when he was flat broke, there appears to be some truth to this piece!!

Bob Elliston's avatar

You're quite right about Trump, but maybe that shows how clever the KGB folks have been: to make the orange idiot into an asset without him even realising it. Maybe?

Also check out Craig Ungers book House of Trump, House of Putin as well as the writings of Michael Sellers, a former CIA officer in Moscow during the 80s, who has been writing about this on SubStack.

Louise Edington's avatar

Yes I saw it back then too

Carol Vien's avatar

There are new, specific details in this account.

Sue Laue's avatar

THIS SHOULD BE THE TOP STORY, LEAD NEWS ITEM, RUNNING CHRYON(sp), ON EVERY STATION, MEDIA OUTLET, NEWSPAPER, ETC,, UNTIL trump IS 8647ed. DO IT PEOPLE!!!!

Patrick Daniels aka Cromulent1's avatar

Should have been as Trump descended the guiled escalator years ago… remember Hillary claimed Trump was a Russian asset!!

LINDA ADAMS's avatar

That would explain so much of what is happening.

I’ve been beating this drum for years: we’ve been in WW3 since 2014; just the shape of the war was different so we didn’t see it. P has played a very long game.

Clinton was out because of a little hanky panky. Trump is re-elected after J6, 34 felony convictions, adjudicated rape conviction, fraud and fake university and more, he’s still making our lives miserable.

Gloria Wetzel's avatar

Need others to do investigative journalism

Delia Wozniak's avatar

We knew Trump was a Russian asset long before Alnur Mussayev posted the historic record of Trump’s willful allegiance to Putin’s dictatorship!

We know Trump still dreams of the Trump Moscow Hotel, and those leggy Russian blonde bombshells!

Dream on, Danila Krasnov!

You’re an old, ugly fart now!

No matter how much money you steal, you’re over the hill!

You lost! America lost! Putin won!

Here’s hoping Europe will put Putin back where he belongs- in his impoverished Russia!

Wow! Finally, verification - now what? Great job, Rook, et al!

Isn't that very very special?

... And this proves what Hitler said - you must lie so big that regular people cant wrap their heads around anybody lying that big. So they HAVE to accept it as reality.

As they did with Reagans totally fake economy, still been held as truth by regular people who havent been deprogrammed from it - and believe it since the wealthy believe it, which they do as a pure rationalisation for keep hogging more and more of the money. (Look how rabid i sound when i say it - so THAT cant be the truth, can it...? Well, science says so. And also that rich people MUST start reasoning like this to cope with the game being rigged in their favour - it halppens ro almost everyone in all game experiments being made: they start to play the "rich asshole" role, just to cope.

... Which in turn is the reason that Trump did end up on top.

He probably gave Intel on Israel to Putin who got it handed down to Hamas. Look how that turned out. tRump probably didn't even know what he gave

Maybe this can be the subject of Jake Tappers next book. It will get plenty of media coverage then.
