Is Trump a Russian agent? Top Kremlinologist presents a tantalising and disturbing dossier

He has been accused of being everything from a racist to a misogynist in recent months as his bid for the White House has gained support across the U.S., but one question could yet prove more damning: is Donald Trump a Russian agent?

While the answer may be no, he is certainly what the original Soviet leader Lenin called a ‘useful idiot’ — referring to those in the West who ignored mass murder and chose to support the great Communist project.

Putin has been very aggressive with us for a long time in the intelligence sphere.
That would be one helluva "get," but it wouldn't be the first time that an upper echelon individual did the flip.

Some one has come along and handed them a sledge hammer. There is a super power vacuum and some one wants to fill it.

Melania are you now or have you ever been a member of the Communist party? Melania do you know what the English phrase "honey trap" means?
