He's married 2 Russian women, gone to Russia and begged to meet Putin while there, and has been groomed as a Russian asset for years - but the word "wit" should never be used in the same sentence as Spanky's name !

His first wife is Czech and his current wife is Slovenian...now as to the women that allegedly peed for him, I would venture to say they were Russian!

Both were born into the Soviet bloc.
Ivana especially received rather special treatment-- allowed to go to the West when others were still being shot for trying to defect. Wonder why....

or subvert US interests? Maybe someone else can think of a time. I can't. It's like saying Dillinger accidentally robbed banks. Or McVeigh unwittingly blew up the Murrah Building.

Better yet, when did he not help Putin in some fashion? Even his incompetence is useful.

Trump is happily destroying America and the West on behalf of his boss, Putin.
