Not one cheeseburger and fish sandwich at a meal is enough for him. I think it's the same with money. He has a long history of not paying his bills or the people he hires to work for him and getting away with it.He gets furious if anyone uses campaign money except he and his family, has been known to scream about them using his money. There are entangled ties between Russia, Deutsche Bank, Kushner & he. For years he wanted Trump Tower Moscow. I don't know what it is but now think some day we will find out what turned him into a ring kisser.

Until mainstream media picks it up and runs with it, and the Democrats need to be shining a light on anything out of place with tRUMP and the Russians. Make it common knowledge and very agreed upon view of the American People by October.

tRUMP and Republicans also need to be linked to the U.S.S.R. or Soviets as much as possible with advertisements, graphics, etc. Wrap the old Soviet flag around every damn one of them, because they all know they have selling out the USA and We the People.

And Trump has been technically broke and Russia has bank rolled him for decades, his son said it out loud!

Donald has no recourse but to flee to extradition free Russia just before the inauguration of a Democratic POTUS.

a pedophile occupying the White House, and thinking that it would never catch up to him?

I guess if you are guilty of something heinous, you have to simply act like it's not true, until it's proven true. But then, in Trump's case, he can still continue to deny, deny, deny, and his sycophants will gobble it up.

He admires dictators and would like to make himself dictator for life as putin is about to do and as Xi has done.

He's praised what the Chinese did to protesters in Tiananmen Square. He locks up children and denies them free medical care. He teargasses peaceful protesters for a propaganda photo. He's taken over VOA to be a propaganda arm of his administration. He's called for journalists to be hurt and killed. He openly admits he wants to keep people from voting. He lies constantly. He fills his pockets with taxpayer money pouring into his hotel in DC and his golf clubs and who knows what other businesses. He fires people who won't get on board with his corruption. All of this is out in the open.

Of course it's easy to figure they have dirt on him, Donnie's a security nightmare in that respect. Anything from any of his many NDAs, for starters.

And Donnie has already proved he will deal to keep things secret.

But Donnie doesn't act like someone who wanted to do good but was compromised. He seems perfectly happy doing all these things that just hss as porn to be in Russia's interests, and the only thing that seems to motivate him is praise and money.

So even with is a stick, I think it's the carrot Donnie is fixated on.
