Will Mother Russia And Putin Bail Out Trump This Time?

Just like all the other times?

I wonder if Trump can keep on laundering Russian Mob money to keep out of bankruptcy.

He is sinking fast.

Help Vladimir!!!!! I am being a good boy literally destroying America for you!!!! Making America Hate!

When there's $2 trillion--that's two thousand billion dollars--of OUR money being allocated who-knows-where, it would surprise me to hear that a few billion here and there did NOT go to parties that would be very forgiving of anything Trump did as long as repayment was made.

and if things get worse there I don't imagine him wanting to cut His Lardship much slack. If the Russians call the Trump Org's debts it could get interesting, since the oligarchs' collection methods are somewhat less civilized than Deutsche Bank's.

3. And with his oil price wars are costing him big time

He cannot win the price war with the Saudis. He will keep his trolls trying to affect the US election, they are involved with the GOP and Trump with this uprising of opening up the country. That will not change but Putie is in a lot of trouble. A friend's son, an American living in Ukraine, says Putin is looking at a way to get out of Ukraine, it is costing him too much and he is getting little in return. I am not sure he will survive, the Oligarchs are getting itchy for their money.

8. I wonder about this too since China has a big financial investment in America as well

As Trump flirted with both at the same time, making promises of huuuge deals on America's dime, Russia & China finally stood before the two timing idiot and demanded to know who gets the red rose.

Guess who Trump pissed off.
He sacrificed this country & its citizens to save his own neck from Putin's global crime family.

That's how I see this whole shitshow.

He has done more to disassemble this nation then they could have ever dreamed. If Biden starts breathing down Trump's neck, he is liable to have an unfortunate illness or accident in late October.

a battle between just US dems and Trump. This is a global effort, played out most visibly on US turf...with US norms, laws, rules, morals, media integrity, and sense of justice all kneecapped.
