Longtime Trump bodyguard to face questions about 2013 Moscow trip

Source: WP

One of President Trump’s most trusted confidants, a security chief who served as his sounding board for nearly two decades, will face questions from congressional investigators next week about Trump’s 2013 trip to Moscow, according to people familiar with their plans.

The excursion is at the center of some of the most salacious allegations contained in a now-famous dossier, which contains unverified charges that Trump has vehemently disputed.

The House Intelligence Committee has called former longtime bodyguard Keith Schiller to appear for an interview Tuesday as part of its probe of Russian meddling in the 2016 election. Investigators plan to press Schiller about allegations in the 35-page dossier that Russian officials obtained compromising information about Trump’s personal behavior when he visited Moscow for the 2013 Miss Universe pageant, according to people familiar with the investigation.

“He can expect to be asked about any interaction with Russians, with or without Trump” during that 2013 excursion and throughout his tenure with the Trump Organization, according to a U.S. official familiar with the inquiry who requested anonymity to discuss the investigation.

and he will be hostile, no doubt. But if HE gives something up, then Dump can kiss his ass goodbye.

He just wants to see if Schiller corroborates it or lies. He'll probably lie and get burned. And there won't be anyone around to piss on him.

for tRump as long as he has and is not completely grossed out, must not have much self respect. How any normal person could tolerate this clown is beyond me. Put my life on the line for THIS? No way, I would shove him in front of me for protection. The corpulent one would splatter like a giant pumpkin.

This goes way back, long before he ran for President. Anybody who quits working for him is threatened with lawsuits if they tell what they know. He's been twisting arms for a very long time.

But you're correct, it's only toadies who work for him, people who have no self-respect. All they do is tell Cheeto how smart & wonderful he is. They don't have any real duties other than be loyal to him.
