YA THINK?!?!
“possibility”… as if there is any doubt
Even if there was none of the evidence (“Krasnov” codenames claim, etc) the fact that at every turn he does exactly what Putin and the Russian oligarchs want and is actively harming the US and other western countries means everyone needs to treat him like he’s a Russian asset. It almost doesn’t even matter if he officially is or not…
Yup. He is an asset to Russia whether or not he is a willing asset.
The only question is whether he knows he’s a Russian asset. Trump may be working for them without realizing it. All Putin would have to do is convince him he was just giving him advice, one wise ruler to another, because Trump is special and brilliant, and provide a few incentives. Trump would believe that taking the advice was all his own brilliant idea.
This is so stupid. He is an asset, whether intentionally or not. Russian media is having a heyday with him. Whether he is an “agent” or not remains ambiguous, but he is absolutely an “asset” to them.
A distinction without a difference?
Assets don’t have to have be in on it intentionally. A tank is an asset. A forest at the border can be an asset. But to be an agent takes volition and consensual involvement.
Oh I agree. I’m just saying that whether there is intent there or not doesn’t really make much if any difference to the outcome.
Not really much to consider. Seems pretty obvious at the point.
Earlier this morning a coworker mentioned politicians wearing their corporate sponsors like NASCAR drivers. This was my response:
The odds Trump isn’t a Russian operative are far far far less than the odds that he is a Russian operative.
If he’s not a Russian asset, he’s working for them pro bono.
Didn’t anyone with a brain figure this out about a decade ago?
I think many people figured it out in 1987 when he went to Moscow and then ran full-page newspaper ads demanding the USA turn on its allies.
We have been saying this over and over again. He is a Nazi and he is Putin’s puppet.
Breaking news, Antarctica is cold.
I mean, the only question at this point is really whether he was one before he ran the first time or if that happened later.
