  1. A raw and jaw-dropping example of what a pathological liar sounds like. Trump's 2015 interview with host Michael Savage, Trump was asked again point-blank whether he'd ever met Putin. "Yes," Trump said. "One time, yes. Long time ago." "Got along with him great, by the way," Trump added. "I got to know so many of the Russian leaders, the top top people in Russia," he said. At a July, 2016 press conference, at the height of the general election campaign, Trump denied ever having met the Russian leader. "I never met Putin, I don't know who Putin is," he told reporters in Florida. "He said one nice thing about me. He said I'm a genius. I said, 'Thank you very much' to the newspaper, and that was the end of it. I never met Putin. Never spoken to him. I don't know anything about him other than he will respect me." David Letterman asked Trump in a 2013 interview if had ever met Putin. Trump: "Well I've done a lot of business with the Russians," Trump said. "He's a tough guy. I met him once," said Trump. Feb. 17, 2016: At a rally, Trump insists he has no relationship with Putin. “I have no relationship with him other than he called me a genius,” Trump says. “He said, ‘Donald Trump is a genius, and he is going to be the leader of the party, and he’s going to be the leader of the world or something.’” Trump's July 2016 interview with George  Stephanopoulos             STEPHANOPOULOS: "Yet you said for three years, '13, '14 and '15, that you did have a relationship with Putin." TRUMP: "No, look, what — what do you call a relationship? I mean he treats me..." STEPHANOPOULOS: "I'm asking you." TRUMP: "with great respect. I have no relationship with Putin. I don't think I've ever met him. I never met him. I don't think I've ever met him." STEPHANOPOULOS: "You would know if you did." TRUMP: "I think so." STEPHANOPOULOS: "I mean if he..." TRUMP: "Yes, I think so. So I've — I don't think I've ever met him. I mean if he's in the same room or something. But I don't think so." If anyone still had any doubt as to whether or not you can believe anything that Trump says, I hope this clears everything up.

  2. When it comes to Trump and the GOP,  all roads lead to Russia. Lev Parnas, the indicted associate of Rudy, and Devin Nunes, received a $1 million payment from Russia and tried to hide it from investigators, prosecutors have now stated. Trump denies knowing Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman, even though they have attended events at his properties, and they have posed in multiple photos with Trump. Parnas, who was charged with illegally funneling foreign cash to Republican politicians, including a pro-Trump super PAC, received $1 million from a mysterious account in Russia in September, which he conveniently forgot disclose to the government. Parnas is the founder of "Fraud Guarantee" 😂  a consulting firm with no “identifiable customers” that paid Rudy $500,000. The mysterious payment from Russia should not be a surprise considering that all roads lead to Putin and Russia when it comes to Trump. Prosecutors say Parnas and Igor Fruman donated larger sums of money to Republicans in an effort to enlist them in their effort to oust then-Ukraine Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch, who testified that she was recalled after a smear campaign by Rudy. Along with their work with Rudy, Parnas and Fruman are accused of meeting at Trump’s Washington hotel to discuss a Ukraine gas deal linked to Yovanovitch’s removal. In October, Republican Kevin McCarthy said he plans to donate the $111,000 that was given to the House Republicans' main fundraising committee by Igor Fruman and Lev Parnas. 😲 McCarthy, a sycophantic defender of Trump, said the money from Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman, would be given to charity.  A handful of Republican campaign committees received nearly $500,000 from Parnas and Fruman. Prosecutors say that they “conspired to circumvent the federal laws against foreign influence by engaging in a scheme to funnel foreign money to candidates for federal and state office so that the defendants could buy potential influence with candidates, campaigns and the candidates’ governments.” Fruman and Parnas also created Global Energy Producers, an LLC to hide their funding sources and conceal their names on large contributions, the indictment says. FL. Gov. Ron DeSantis said he plans to return nearly $50,000 he received, according to a report by The Miami Herald. Parnas attended fundraisers for DeSantis in 2018. 😲 Parnas was throwing Russian money at Republicans like beads at Mardi Gras to any republican that was willing to expose themselves to him. I think it's safe say that not only do the Russians own Trump, they also own the GOP as well. It's going to be interesting to find out just how much Russia paid Trump and republicans to sellout and betray America. And make no mistake, we will find out.
