Russian who backed Trump for President suggests UN ambassador pick gets his choice

[neohippie]

Well, look here the same Russian who backed Trump's run for President and confessed to election manipulation on Facebook posted on November 2nd that Trump should pick Heather Nauert for that UN spot, seems to have gotten his wish

November 2
I think Heather Nauert is a good option for a U.S. Representative in the United Nations.
Can at least she stop using the rhetoric of Russophobia @realDonaldTrump? It is time to start working constructively, and then this theater of absurdity dragged on.

Here's more background on Mr. Klyushin (pronounced collusion?)

So, Klyushin appears to be claiming that Trump would not be in the White House today without his assistance, and in return they were waiting for Trump to drop the sanctions against Russia.

To be honest, I have no idea if Klyushin is serious, or kidding, or what. But there are an awful lot of pictures of him with Trump, his Twitter feed is full of tweets saying how great Trump is, and he has resources and connections such that he could have plausibly have at least made an attempt at swaying a U.S. election. There was obviously a deal to build a Trump tower in Moscow, involving Klyushin, when Trump said there were no deals. If that’s not worth investigating, I don’t know what is.

3. Klyushin is an interesting cat.

He'll follow you on Twitter in a heartbeat if you mention his name. It's creepy.



His former wife was Yulya Alferova, who was the PR person for the Agalarovs when Trump hosted Miss Universe in Moscow at 2013. Yulya followed Trump all around Moscow when he visited in 2013, sat in on business meetings, and told everyone about how he was obsessed with Obama.

Klyushin was also good friends with Konstantin Rykov, the main Kremlin propagandist who published a confession Facebook days after the 2016 election claiming he ran an information campaign from Russia to get Trump elected.

Klyushin and Rykov were sitting together at an election night party in Moscow when Trump was projected to be the winner.




I don't know exactly what his deal is or what exactly he does, but at the very least, Klyushin has some interesting friends.
