In reply to the discussion: Trump couldn't possibly be a Russian asset...could he? [View all]Grins
(9,459 posts)31. Since 1987. And watched for years before that.
The StB Czechoslovakias communist state intelligence agency spied on Trump and his Czechoslovak-born wife, Ivana, in the late 1970s and into the 80s when she made regular trips back to visit her father, Milo Zelníček- who was a communist snitch for the StB.
He became a target of the KGB soon after during a recruitment effort to get more foreign assets that might eventually be of use to the Soviets. We KNOW who first recruited him in NY, and we KNOW how he did it.
When he first visited Moscow he was put up in damn LENIN SUITE at the National Hotel, a KGB hotel, in the same room that once was lived in by VLADIMIR LENIN! You think Joe and Claudia from Paramus, NJ could book that room?
Of course hes a Russian asset!
