21. No need

In all the security briefings I attended, we learned the KGB and GRU had three main ways to blackmail someone into becoming an agent: money, drugs and sex.

I put them in that order for a good reason.

My money is on the SVR using Trump's money problems to control him. Since no US bank will deal with him, he's been funding through foreign banks for quite some time. No bank is going to lend Donald Trump enough money to erect a skyscraper without knowing how likely they are to get it back - and the one thing Trump is most apoplectic about is anyone knowing just how little money he really has. Put 'em together and it's pretty clear: they can use Trump's fear of embarrassment over the fact he has no cash to drag him around by the nose.

Now let's talk drugs. If Donald Trump is NOT a tweaker he's doing a damn good imitation of one. Where's he getting the drugs? Possibly the only thing Trump is more scared of than the American people finding out he's got less than a month's money on hand, is them learning the names of his drug suppliers and what drugs he likes to take.

Sex? No. There are two things everyone should be able to agree on about Trump: he is a sexual satyr and he has control of the media. Let's throw a wild supposition out there: the SVR has video of him receiving gay sex. If they drop this video on the news media, within 12 hours we'll "know" Hillary built this video all by her lonesome just to destroy Trump.
