Video of Trump Talking Trump Tower Moscow in Russia

Video Uncovered of Trump Talking Trump Tower Moscow in Russia @realDonaldTrump @POTUS https://m.dailykos.com/stories/2017/8/28/1694055/-Video-Uncovered-of-Trump-Talking-Trump-Tower-Moscow-in-Russia?_=2017-08-28T14:06:00.662-07:00

Here’s a link to the video on Twitter:


Here is the transcript from the video.

Donald Trump:

“We’ve met with a number of people and we may do something in Moscow and in various parts of Russia but we have had some meetings while I’m here and we could very well do something. We’re thinking about doing a Trump Tower Moscow. So we’re talking to a group of people about doing that.”

The video was shot at a press conference with Trump & Russian oligarch Aras Agalarov. The press conference was in Crocus City Hall in Moscow which is owned by Agalarov. Agalarov is seated next to Trump at the press conference. He is the one who setup the Don Jr Russian lawyer meeting. His son is the Russian popstar Emin Agalarov. It is from back in 2013, but was released by Forbes Russia shortly after the campaign.

So again, this is Trump doing business in Russia, talking about his Russian business meetings, and how he will build a Trump Tower Moscow with his Russian contacts.

Not like it was illegal for a real estate guy to do biz with Russia at the time.

So why do he and his people flat out deny absolutely ANY meetings with any Russians from the very beginning? They really, really try to deflect from Russia and it only makes it worse for them.

did not go for this idea. He KNOWS tRump's bad reputation for screwing business partners. Vlad is too smart to be taken, but he foisted the orange ass on the people of the US, helped put him in the WH. I find the entire tRump family vile, disgusting grifters who THINK they are special. They are, especially disgusting. Ivanka thinks she is some kind of raving beauty since she had her entire face re-arranged. Still looks like a tRump, that anus mouth is a dead giveaway. Her legs are like a flamingo's, shapeless and too skinny and long.

"The democrats have a video. You know, they claim to have a video. They say it shows me talking about a trump tower in russia. There is no trump tower in russia. It's fake. It's a fake tape. I haven't seen it but I know it's fake. It's a fake tape and the democrats are fake news. I won and this is all they can think of. Fake tapes and fake news. How about Sheriff Joe? Isn't he wonderful? Come out here Joe, where are you? Well anyway tonight I want to tell you about how I'm going to make Mexico pay for the wall. They'll do it because I'm the best president, the very best."
