Newly unearthed video shows Trump 'meeting with Russians in Moscow in 1995' over 'building project'

Source: Independent UK

The former mayor of Moscow has confirmed Donald Trump met with officials in Russia in the 1990s to discuss a possible building project after archival footage of the meeting was posted online.

The video, allegedly aired by Russian state television in 1995, shows the US president meeting with members of the former mayor’s administration.

“Trump was in Moscow,” Yury Luzhkov, the mayor of Moscow from 1992 through 2010, told the Interfax news agency. “He had contacts…on matters related to the construction of the Okhotny Ryad underground mall on Manezh Square.”

The video adds new insight into Mr Trump’s business dealings in Russia well before the 2016 presidential election. It had previously been reported he visited Moscow in 1996 — a year after his alleged meeting with the former mayor’s administration — when he announced plans to invest upwards of $250m into the city.

...and the GOP is yelling "USA."
Hypocritical traitors.
Can you get any lower, GOP?
You don't give a fuck about the USA.
You're the filth of the earth.

I'm thinking the "wall' will become a money laundering scheme involving Trump and a construction company with ties to the Russian Oligarchs. It won't cost % billion, it will cost 5 billion a year for as long as he is hiding in the Oval Office.

Putin defenders chanting USA.

Democrats have an uphill battle because the M$M is on board with the traitors and Trump. Notice how they all now call migrations, caravans. Notice how they compare Socialism with Venezuela.

I may have to take a ride today to relax and listen to Stephanie Miller on my Sirius.
