and I'll copy in just the first few:
2/ From mid-summer to Election Day, I consulted for 3 different clients, whose names I will not name, on Trump's assets, mainly in TR & AS.
3/ There are so many different angles to Trump's business interests from mob ties to LatAm and Turkish oligarchs. I'll only focus on Russia.

(7,434 posts)The entire GOP is in Putin's pocket. There is no acknowledgement among them that Putin is leading Trump by the nose BECAUSE of Trump's indebtedness to Russian oligarchs. A long time ago, Trump sold out. He took Russian money by the hundreds of millions.
He's heavily in debt.
He can't bite the hand that feeds him.
He has nothing but praise for a powerful adversary.
The GOP knows what's happening. All of the political world knows what's happening.
Trump is a Russian ASSET. Why there is even a question about this is astounding. This is a scandal and a criminal act so big and so damaging to the US that no one can even talk about it openly. Doing so will bring down the entire house of cards that is the Trump victory and GOP complicity in the Russian-sponsored coup.

I certainly expect that the dems must have a plan for revealing anything they can unfover.
