Omarosa vs. Trump may be the political pro wrestling match of the week, but a more serious confrontation could be prompted by a book that came out Tuesday, alleging that President Donald Trump may be a Russian asset compromised by billions of laundered dollars over decades of shady real estate deals.

In House of Trump, House of Putin: The Untold Story of Donald Trump and the Russian Mafia, veteran journalist and author Craig Unger names 59 Russians as business associates of Trump (who has claimed he has none) and follows the purported financial links between them and the Trump Organization going back decades.

The Trump White House did not immediately respond to Newsweek's requests for comment. In February 2017, Trump issued a blanket denial to questions about Russian money and his business. "I have no dealings with Russia. I have no deals that could happen in Russia, because we’ve stayed away," he said. "And I have no loans with Russia. I have no loans with Russia at all."

1. "And I have no loans with Russia. I have no loans with Russia at all."

Not very good at hiding the "tells" is he? He'd be a terrible poker player. No wonder his casinos all went bust.

2. Agree

Takes a special talent to go bust running a casino where the house always comes out on top.

3. Trumpass, jr. and Eric

are both on tape saying that the Trumpass organization has deals in Russia. And they said it in interviews before Traitor Tot ran for president.

He lies like we breathe.

5. "Russia" is different from "Russians".

Sure, the government of Russia has not loaned him money directly.

But he laundered Russian mob money and undoubtedly has loans from them propping up his fake businesses.

6. Damn I missed that! Very clever for a psychopath like Donnie.

4. Wonder if the NY mob sold his contract the Russians?

Years back many clubs were owned by organized crime and entertainers were often booked into affiliated venues. If they liked you, you were in, but had to get permission to work "out of network" so to speak. Early Vegas was a good example of such practices.

With Dotard's casino/real estate/NYC background, don't think the Russians could have moved in unless the locals were tired of his foolishness.

eta: He had that kind of personal contract with Hershel Walker. After his team folded, Walker had to get permission to play in the NFL and the team had to compensate the Donald.

7. Trump pissed his pants in the presence of NY mafia. I imagine that's why he's so respectful of Vlad
