The KGB saw Dump as a potential asset and may have used its espionage tools to track him. Old KGB man Putin probably had access to the kompromat they collected. The kleptocrats knew Dump had no morals or loyalty to anything but himself so they could easily manipulate him to launder rubles or otherwise do their bidding. I wouldn't rule out him compromising U.S. intelligence during those secret meetings with Putin. The seeds of SolarWinds?
Where are Epstein's "videotapes of sexual acts that he could use for blackmail or kompromat"?

That's what I read years ago, too -- that Trump was on their radar as soon as he married Ivana.

Its speculation however what might prove this is true is if Trump fails to sue the author.
