    What dealings? He isn't associated with Russia. No one talked about it cause its nothing to talk about

    Secondly, ME, personally interviewed at the Russia State owned natural gas co on McKinney St in downtown

    Its no big deal either way

    Natural gas is where Putin gets all his money

    Youre just trolling or living in fantasy land if you want to sit there and say that Trump had no dealings or connections with Russia.

    STOP insulting our intelligence and if you want to have a real discussion have it, but stop acting like we are all idiots please.

    -Alfa Bank
    -Argalarov
    -Satar
    -Sergal Milan
    -selling homes to Russian oligarchs at double what the homes cost a year prior
    -the insane amount of Russian Oligarchs using Trump tower for Shell companies
    -Anything revolving around Paul Manafort

    -And then there is Junior...do you really want to go through his latest Russian connection?

    I could go on and on.

    I'm sure, being in the NYC real estate business it's unavoidable to run into Russians. Heck, I deal with Russian business men and women all the time in my job too since my territory is NYC. There is no crime in doing business with Russians or having relationships with any that aren't criminals or muderers (in the case of Putin).

    But lying about it, is a problem. You are lying about Trump right this second on his behalf. Trump fans... cut the bulls$& and stop playing games here. You're not as good of a troll as Trump is no matter how hard you try.

    pgabs, I think you are brainlocked on this, but let me try.

    You have dealt with Russians in real life -- I believe you.
    If:
    1. you were the president of this nation,
    2. had mysteriously withheld your tax returns
    3. Russians were known to have wanted you to be president and hacked in an effort to aid you
    4. you and everyone around you repeatedly lied about your interactions with Russians
    5. You fired the head of the FBI suddenly
    and finally,
    6. your son was caught red-handed saying "I love it" on oppo research from Russians, proving a welcoming of collusion with a hostile foreign power...

    Then, LOL, yes, even YOU would be going through three separate government investigations and a lot of media scrutiny. Nobody is beating up on Trump. If he'd shown his returns like every other candidate, and if he and his folks hadn't lied at every stage of this, we'd be talking about his hair and spraytan and (with any luck) a freaking infrastructure bill (please, pretty please -- we need that). But no, he has made himself and his campaign look as guilty as possible.

    Honest brokers from both parties and from no parties care about this. Let the investigations play out and let's see what they find. Peace.

    Russians do business in this country independently of Trump

    Still no need for a thesis

    Putin trades natural gas on McKinney St in downtown Houston strictly to make money

    That office opined in 2010 when Obama was President

    More damage has come from that money than some stupid as emails that maybe ten Americans read

    This is how Russians do business

    I was in credit in commodity trading

    Gazprom, the Russian gas company in the interview said they don't give out their financials to companies they trade with

    I said how do you get away with that

    He said he leveraged their euro relationships

    I asked my boss what he meant ( I was getting laid off)

    My boss said they tell companies you don't do business here we won't sell to you in Europe

    They got all the gas

    Russians have y'all in turmoil. Got a FBI investigation that will result in nothing

    Russians did the hacking

    They'll still be trading on McKinney in downtown long after we are all gone

    I have a Top Secret DoD clearance. If I meet with any member or reasonably suspected member of a foreign government, I am required to immediately report it. If I am contacted by any member or reasonably suspected member of a foreign government I am required to report it. When submitting my application, I also had to report any meetings/dealings/relationships. Not only that, i had to to include close family members that may have had foreign relations to the best of my knowledge.

    Yeah, but have you ever interviewed at Gazprom on McKinney Street?

    That pretty much sums it up.

    Congress (Democrats and republicans) agrees, and makes a move, albeit a small move, its a start...

    Oh, poor baby. You think that's too long to read? Well, boo ****ing hoo. That's really embarrassing that an allegedly intelligent person like you considers that brief post akin to a thesis. I guess, IYO, The Old Man and the Sea is a Biblical-length novel, eh? Lame.

    It's embarrassing. The word count on that post is like less than 1,000. When did that guy turn into a parody?
