for Donny and, coincidentally, the Soviet Union.

By the end of 1990, Donald Trump’s financial problems were spiraling out of control, and he increasingly looked to his inheritance as his salvation.

A year later, on 25 December 1991, the Soviet flag was lowered for the last time.

Looks like at least a few desperados in both the U.S. and Russia spent 1991 trying to secure an escape from their impending disasters. Hmmm......



1986: Soviet Ambassador Yuri Dubinin invites Trump on an all-expenses-paid trip to the Soviet Union.

(Why? Was somebody in the Soviet Union (KGB?) keeping an eye on Dump?)

July 1987: Trump and his wife, Ivana, who speaks Russian, make their first visit to the Soviet Union...to scout potential construction sites for a Trump Tower Moscow.
