The Trump Regime mirrors the beginning of the Putin Regime. Steal the treasury through various means and rig elections. The Oligarchy has blossomed, the Kleptocracy is taking hold and the fix is in.

The same exact steps were taken by Putin in Ukraine with the install of Viktor Yanokovych in 2010. The difference in Ukraine was the 2013/2014 Winter on Fire which resulted in Yanokovych fleeing via helicopter for Moscow in the middle of the night. By that time, the entire Ukraine treasury was depleted. There is a documentary about this entitled Winter on Fire: Ukraine's Fight for Freedom. After Yanokovych fled, the Ukrainian peoples showed up at the presidential palace and were stunned by the ostentatious and gaudy palace bought with their money. Very similar to today's Whitehouse.

I have been certain for some time that Trump is a Russian asset as are several cabinet members.p The War in Iran is nothing but a smokescreen for massive theft.

I further believe the midterms will not bode well for Democrats. I pray I'm wrong about this.
