This is the best article I've read about the Dotard, his shady dealings, and where he got the money to build Trump Tower only a few years after bankrupting his casino.

I googled the first sentence. Turns out some papers at the time reprinted this story from The Economist: Organised crime: Redfellas

when many Russian emigres moved to Brooklyn, some of whom were tied to organized crime in Russia.

When he surrounds himself with Russian mobsters

Probably the big move but it started way before that. My grandmother ran a seaside boarding house on Rockaway Beach in the late '40's.. To escape the hot summers in Manhattan the crew from the Russian embassy would rent the whole place out. My father joked that her garbage man were the most educated of the lot.
They were ALL FBI looking thru the trash for info!!

“What do I have to do with Russia?” he replied to reporters’ questions at a press conference in Doral last summer. “You know the closest I came to Russia, I bought a house a number of years ago in Palm Beach … for $40 million, and I sold it to a Russian for $100 million.”
...
It’s a tale that’s now coming to a sad end: That $100 million mansion, once the most expensive home in America, has become its most expensive tear-down. Not a single trace of the compound remains, and soon even its address will disappear: The 6.3-acre estate on which it stood has been broken into three parcels, and one of them has already sold.
....
“I’d been in the house before, at one of Gosman’s charity parties, and Trump had hardly changed anything, just put on a couple of coats of paint,” Lambiet said. “Even that — well, he told us the fixtures in one of the bathrooms were gold, but as he walked away, I scratched a faucet with my fingernails and it was just gold-covered paint.” .... “It was just terrible-looking, really gaudy,” he said. “Nothing fit together — it was sort of haphazard inside. ... “There was a room with a floor made of cobblestones, and in the corner was a real wood oven for pizzas. It looked like an old Italian pizza place. Who does that in their house? ... I thought, he’s never gonna sell this. And he didn’t, the house stayed on the market for a couple of years. “And then the Russian came along.”
.....
Trump, sensing his fish had taken the hook, hung tough on his price. On July 15, 2008, Rybolovlev bought the house for $95 million (Trump says credits on the closing costs brought the total package to $100 million), believed to be the biggest home sale in American history.

Dressed in a suit and found dead of a gunshot wound on a Florida beach. His relatively new job was investigating visa and passport cases in southern Florida.

“Beranton Whisenant worked in the U.S. Attorney's Office in Miami in its major crimes unit. The office prosecutes criminal and civil cases from Fort Pierce to Key West. He was reportedly working on visa and passport fraud cases prior to his death.”

This man’s story raised red flags in 2017. He started his job in January. Seemed like he had character and a lot to live for.

I'm aware of how much oligarchs of ours or any country will demoralize the social order to get power and wealth for themselves above all law and order.

Fraud is never an obstacle for those who fly in and out of countries with no care for showing passports. There is an entire class of them on Earth who have no attachment to any land base.

EXACTLY One of the retaliations of the Russian Government to the Magnitsky Act was to restrict adoptions of Russian children. So it made perfect sense to me when the tRump tower meeting was about "Russian adoptions" was really about sanctions and reversal of the Magnitsky act... wink,wink...
