#1: And previous UK PM staff made fun of Trumpf whenever he was on the phone: www.independent.co.uk

This is what happens when the court jester is crowned as king.

Thanks Republican voters, you own this. ALL OF IT.

Vlad is just making sure the Oligarchs that have funded Trump's businesses... and his Campaigns... get everything on their Wish Lists.

Crimea, anything of value in Ukraine, all the kidnapped Ukrainian children, Deed to the Republican Party... also reminding Donald that they have records for all the money he's laundered for them.

What's hilarious about this is that Trump would be outraged if someone domestically did this to him. It would rain spittle at the White House and you wouldn't hear the end of it on Truth Social.

But Trump will stay passive and eat hid liver on this one, won't he?

Elegant proof that Russians have the receipts on his sexually and financially criminal behavior.

Hi Corky: After all the FBI and SC investigations, the USG hadn't learned or disclosed anything about the Alfa Bank server in Trumpf Tower which probably helps the Trumpf Crime Family (TCF) launder money for the oligarchs and how the Dotard receives his instructions from the Kremlin. Incredible, this is where America is today. www.businessinsider.com

Hoist the Russian flag over the White House.

I thought America held all the cards?

I guess we all know who holds all the cards now.

In about 15 minutes El Rey Dotardo II will send out a press release claiming to have known about and agreed to a 'delay' in the call, 'so that President Putin could speak with his advisors' in advance of his call with Agent Orange, 'because of President Trump's expert negotiation skills. Or some other tom foolery as this...

I hope all veterans and current forces are encouraged at seeing the US CIC, that great deal maker, humiliated at the crest of a deal.

There'll be ketchup on the White House walls tonight.

"Elegant proof that Russians have the receipts on his sexually and financially criminal behavior."

Honestly though, Trump won an election after being convicted of business records fraud to pay off a porn star and sway an election.

The US voted for a recently convicted felon who paid off a porn star who he screwed while his wife was pregnant with his child.

Would Kompromat really have any effect on Trump's base of support? I don't think so. I honestly don't know what Trump is worried about.

#15 I agree, showing tapes of Trumpf doing all sorts of things won't affect his supporters. He'll say it's AI-generated and the Kool-Aid drinkers will believe it. A combination of financial entanglements (e.g. Alfa Bank) and fear may be driving Trumpf. Putin (or his handlers preceding him in the 1980s) warned him the KGB doesn't forget or forgive. While Trumpf may enjoy USSS protection, his properties and extended family are vulnerable and could get whacked in the future. The long list of Russians falling out of windows or getting Novichok cocktails are a reminder to Trumpf. en.wikipedia.org

Since MAGA seems to admire smarminess, that's a good question.

I have long wondered what the home lives of MAGA are really like. Sometimes I think they must be like the move "Event Horizon".
