that he thinks is worth totally compromising our democracy. Aligning the US with dictators all over the world, threatening to leave NATO, begging members of the European Union to leave... it must be world-shattering kompromat. I really can't imagine. Its got to be worse than a pee tape.

(115,899 posts)Trump wouldn't care about kompromat, no matter how kinky - prostitutes, goats, rent boys, he wouldn't care. Whatever it is, it's financial, probably involving big-time money-laundering and shady deals that resulted in Trump being deeply in debt to the oligarchs, the sort of guys who put polonium in people's tea.

Follow the money, it's the only thing that really matters to assholes like Trump.

(63,221 posts)He's being played like a cheap fiddle. He is nothing more than a tool for Putin. Putin will never share wealth or power with him. He will toss him aside like a cheap whore once he has what he wants. Of course Trump thinks this is the real thing. He's such an ignorant fool.

(36,117 posts)I don't know why people think Trump wouldn't compromise US democracy without pressure.
He seems to give two shits about anything but enriching himself and his Trump trash family.
It's just as likely Putin has made promises for fat business deals with the Orange Anus Mouth

That's why there is the bs north korea deal. Kim must have told trump he will let him build trump towers and other shit there.

(36,747 posts)American banks denied him funding after all of his bankruptcies. Remember, all narcissistic people take being denied very personally. The Russians gave him all the funding he needed after that denial. He is doing this as revenge.

We are going to finally see a house of cards come tumbling down.
