Gordon squealed on Trump a couple days ago. Page corroborates. Time for an independent investigation. Past time.

This was Trump's signature move. The quid pro quo. The art of the deal. Flip the platform to help Putin in return for Russian favors the extent of which we're only now learning.

Keep squealing on each other, little squealers ....

I don't want to hear what I want to hear. I want to ascertain the truth. From the few articles I have read, they seem reliable. Does anyone have any information on this site?

And it even was when I studied back in the early 80's.

Unless his Twitter was hacked, he wouldn't be the sort to throw out unsubstantiated nonsense.

Was too warlike..so except for the boldface lie. Nothing to throw him in prison. But the fact that accomplices are dropping him is a real sign of things to come.

No---he wasn't paying them back for hacking the election, which was never a sure thing.

That's not why he changed the platform to suit the Russians. It's because the Russians have tons of stuff on him going back several decades with loans, bail-outs of bankruptcy, and shady real estate purchases (a form of money laundering). He was being blackmailed.

I also think his phones were probably tapped. By the Russians! They have three aces up their sleeve if they can really control an American President. And that's what they were after. And what they got.
