He wants to be America's Putin. He wants a mentor in dictatorship. He admires Putin for his.

Donnie wants to sit at the cool dictator's table. He wants oligarch's under his thumb and milking the national economy for billions into his own pocket.

When you take that situation and merge it with the religious coup also taking place we are in a very dangerous place in history.
If you don't already listen to the Gaslit Nation podcast, I think it may interest you. They are up to date with all of this. It's ran by Sarah Kendzior and Andrea Chalupa (Alexandra Chalupa's sister).

in which he ties several major characters together.
I've been saying for over a year that Erik Prince was involved, he explains how, and ties George Nader,
Flynn, The UAE, and Saudis all together.
All the various stories we have come to know are actually ONE huge over-arching greedy global grab.
.
It's a breath taking global criminal mess, the implications are overwhelming, almost beyond comprehension.
I have never wanted to go to bed and pull the pillows over my head more than I did today.

that could happen to trump is to take every dime from him and his greedy ass family. Might be worse than jail.
