'Is President Trump a Russian asset?'

An Oregon senator says our stable genius certainly behaves like one

Intro by Sam Bellamy

“What else could a Russian asset actually possibly do that Trump hasn’t yet done?”

Sen. Jeff Merkley, a Democrat from Oregon, asked that question of Deputy Secretary of State nominee Christopher Landau and Ambassador to NATO nominee Matthew Whitaker this week. It’s unlikely a straight answer was expected, and none was given.

In recent days, former Soviet spy Alnur Mussayev has claimed publicly that Trump was recruited as an asset by the KGB in 1987 and given the code name “Krasnov.” At least two other former Soviet spies have made similar claims, as Rutgers political science professor Alexander J. Motyl noted in a recent piece for The Hill.

None of the accusers has provided proof, and Trump will no doubt call this more of the Democratic Party’s “Russia, Russia, Russia hoax.”

But as Merkley implies in the video clip below, Vladimir Putin and his old pals in the KGB couldn’t have designed a more useful idiot than Donald Trump if they’d tried.
