Do Russian oligarchs own Trump and his empire?

[oreo]

It's a great question. We know now that Paul Manafort & Richard Gates have been indicted on Russian money laundering in Russian owned banks on the island of Cyprus.



Recently Mueller subpoenaed banking records from Deutsche bank regarding Trump's business--which has paid out 100's of millions in fines for Russian money laundering. When Maddow uses the sharpy in this video as an example, I think of Trump hotel's, golf courses, and casino's he owns around the world.



Trump has repeatedly refused to release any income tax returns.

Trump has repeatedly praised Vladimir Putin.



While Trump was running for POTUS he was planning on building an expansive Trump tower in downtown Moscow.

While Donald Trump was running for president in late 2015 and early 2016, his company was pursuing a plan to develop a massive Trump Tower in Moscow, according to several people familiar with the proposal and new records reviewed by Trump Organization lawyers. As part of the discussions, a Russian-born real estate developer urged Trump to come to Moscow to tout the proposal and suggested that he could get President Vladimir Putin to say “great things” about Trump, according to several people who have been briefed on his correspondence.

Trump’s business sought deal on a Trump Tower in Moscow while he ran for president

And just yesterday we learned about this Michael Flynn text message that was done while Donald Trump was being sworn into office.

WASHINGTON — Michael T. Flynn, President Trump’s former national security adviser, told a former business associate that economic sanctions against Russia would be “ripped up” as one of the Trump administration’s first acts, according to an account by a whistle-blower made public on Wednesday. Mr. Flynn believed that ending the sanctions could allow a business project he had once participated in to move forward, according to the whistle-blower. The account is the strongest evidence to date that the Trump administration wanted to end the sanctions immediately, and suggests that Mr. Flynn had a possible economic incentive for the United States to forge a closer relationship with Russia.

Flynn Said Russian Sanctions Would Be ‘Ripped Up,’ Whistle-Blower Says

I am beginning to think that this entire Presidency was for nothing more than to expand the Trump empire into Russia. I think Trump owes Russian Oligarchs more than what he is worth, which is why he has continually refused to release his income tax returns.

No partisan votes please. Watch the video's & read the links FIRST before voting, then vote in an honest manner. No stupid questions or partisan comments, no diversion tactics-butt butt Hillary or Obama did this-just watch and read FIRST.

Don't sit there and lie and then try to tell me how to vote. Brian Ross got suspended for 4 weeks for lying about Flynn, The Deutsche bank subpoena was on Trump associates, not Trump. Perhaps the mods should do the same to you for repeating a known lies.

Trump has an Empire? Wow!

If Trump has an "Empire", you would be a citizen of that Empire. Therefore, Russian oligarchs own you too. I'm just sayin'.

Personally, I'm hoping for the worst. If we could just get Trump to tear up those Russian sanctions Obama put in place, I might be able to purchase some really gnarly Russian-made firearms I used to see in the gun stores, back during GW's presidency.

 

[MarathonMike]

No, but Obama was owned by the Mullahs. That is the only plausible explanation for his unconscionable actions with Iran, ISIS, the Muslim Brotherhood, the Berghdahl swap for Gitmo terrorists and Benghazi.

You're voting on a lack of information, and that's how Trump got elected-- If it's news you don't want to hear you just ignore it.

Not according to Bloomberg. If you would have watched the video you would have noticed that Bloomberg is sticking by their article.

The U.S. special counsel investigating possible ties between the Donald Trump campaign and Russia in last year’s election is examining a broad range of transactions involving Trump’s businesses as well as those of his associates, according to a person familiar with the probe. FBI investigators and others are looking at Russian purchases of apartments in Trump buildings, Trump’s involvement in a controversial SoHo development in New York with Russian associates, the 2013 Miss Universe pageant in Moscow and Trump’s sale of a Florida mansion to a Russian oligarch in 2008, the person said.

Mueller Expands Probe to Trump Business Transactions

 

[John Shaw]

No.

 

[MarcATL]

Yes. Stock, lock and barrel.

 

[oreo]

No.

Then explain why he has continually refused to release his income tax returns, along with all this praise of Vladimir Putin.

Do you have a link to Obama owing 100's of millions of dollars to Mullah's?

Obama was down with the ideology of ISIS, he didn’t need to get paid.

Clinton on the other hand, is all about cash for kickbacks. Russians gave her $140 million, and they got uranium for it. Yet you think Trump borrowing from a German bank for his well established international business somehow means the Russians “own” him.

Does your bank “own” you because you have a mortgage?

The stupidity of you left wing conspiracy nutters is astounding.

 

[Penelope]

Russian didn't give her 140 million for uranium one , she didn't even own it you dope. Yes Russia owns Trump, lock, stock and barrel.

Deutsche Bank Fined in Plan to Help Russians Launder $10 Billion

 

[Mousterian]

Mueller's got 400,000 'documents and emails' on Manafort. Perhaps a couple of them include 'D J Trump' on them....
And how much evidence does he have on Trump, in the IRS records, Deutsche Bank, and all the other organizations he has access to?
Trump is toast!

 

[DarkFury]

No.

Then explain why he has continually refused to release his income tax returns, along with all this praise of Vladimir Putin.

He's not legally required to release them! He does not need any other reason!

 

[Penelope]

No.

Then explain why he has continually refused to release his income tax returns, along with all this praise of Vladimir Putin.

He's not legally required to release them! He does not need any other reason!

Oh boy if Obama and Clinton did not release their taxes, you'd be all over them. Why is trump special in your eyes?

 

[JoeB131]

No, but Obama was owned by the Mullahs. That is the only plausible explanation for his unconscionable actions with Iran, ISIS, the Muslim Brotherhood, the Berghdahl swap for Gitmo terrorists and Benghazi.

Wow. Here was the thing. Obama didn't fight wars Americans were tired of.

That's why he got elected. He promised to end Bush's wars, Hillary and McCain promised to continue them.
