I could go on and on. The more you post the more you will be wrong because you identify so strongly with a political party that it has made you insane.

You got him now.
Just another (attempted) slimy Trump deal by your favorite reality tv personality. It's very doubtful that Trump is a stranger to money laundering (see Florida real estate deal w/Russian). Has he ever done anything that wasn't shady?

Who is Kazakh Bank?
(Bloomberg) -- New York developer Felix Sater is due to testify before Congress about his role in Donald Trump’s attempt to build a luxury tower in Moscow. A lawsuit filed Monday may provide new fodder for his inquisitors, with its claim that Sater, a longtime associate of Trump’s, sought to use money stolen from a bank in Kazakhstan to help develop the building.

The suit by BTA Bank JSC alleges that Sater and the wealthy Kazakh businessman Ilyas Khrapunov explored financing the tower deal in 2012 with some of the $4 billion stolen a decade ago by Khrapunov’s father-in-law, ex-BTA Chairman Mukhtar Ablyazov. While the Moscow plan fizzled, other transactions tied to Sater helped launder the purloined cash, the bank says.

“Sater helped Ablyazov, Khrapunov and others launder tens of millions of dollars in those stolen funds into the United States,” according to the complaint filed Monday in Manhattan federal court. “Sater also tried to help them stash some of the stolen money overseas, including in real estate in Moscow.”

Sater, 53, was scheduled to appear publicly before the House Intelligence Committee on Wednesday, though the hearing was postponed on Monday. A closed-door session with the Judiciary Committee will move ahead. A central focus of his testimony is expected to be Trump’s longtime effort to build a Moscow tower. The president’s former personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, has previously said Trump sought to build in Moscow through the entire 2016 presidential campaign.

Show me the money. You make a lot of accusations but as usual you are lacking in any real evidence. If Mueller couldn't find anything to charge Trump.....I doubt you can. However I would suspect that Trump may have broken some laws......You know....like the one that Obama did and was charged with and paid a fine. Funny how that tidbit was never viewed a an impeachable offense by the media pundits.

"considered using" IS NOT A CRIME IN THE US...

In a shocker, a Kazakh bank says in a court filing that Felix Sater, President Trump's longtime business partner and a career criminal, considered using POTUS and Michael Cohen's proposed Trump Tower Moscow project to launder money

on a building that was NEVER BUILT...

The main problem is he's willing to suck the dick of the America's greatest adversary (see Helsinki press conference) and sell the nation down the river to get the deal done. Putin is still studying floor plans for the penthouse suite that Donald wants to set him up with. No one would care if Donnie had stayed in the private sector but no, you all put him in charge, thanks for that.

I'm doing the explaining, I have no questions for you.
Here....I'll "explain to you how some things work:

New York Times reporters uncovered information that while the State Department was involved in securing a uranium mining deal with Russia, investors in the company involved in the deal, Uranium One, gave millions to the Clinton Foundation.
Additionally, "shortly after the Russians announced their intention to acquire a majority stake in Uranium One, Mr. Clinton received $500,000 for a Moscow speech from a Russian investment bank with links to the Kremlin that was promoting Uranium One stock."

The plan is to attach Trump's name to the hotel, and giving him royalties. Not him nor his companies would be running it.

But hot damn you can come up with more conspiracy theories than doc, I'll give you that.

I didn't make up the penthouse suite for Putin story or the Trump fawning over Putin (see Trump's entire presidency) bit. Putin either has the goods on Trump or he has something Trump wants. How else could anyone explain Trump's behavior towards Putin? and Trump wonders why he gets investigated lol. It wasn't hard...don't try to be BFFs with the leader of our most adversarial nation but nooooo.

* Insert Trump has been harder on Russia than Obama facts, I'm not doing it again *

You have Orange Man Bad syndrome, and it cannot be cured. Your best bet is just to build your underground bunker and wait out your remaining years.
