given all of his actions over the last 3 years, I can't come to any other conclusion.

given only what had been revealed in public. And we all know there's a LOT more that we don't know, involving people we've heard about and many we haven't.

Trump was and is a Russian asset. I believe that.

He has apparently convinced his followers that cozying up to Putin is a good thing.

Many of the older among his followers- people from my generation and earlier- used to be fond of calling anyone who didn't subscribe to their worldview "Commies," "Pinkos" or "Reds."

And now look. They're OK with a former KGB agent messing with US elections and being buddies with the President, just because it's benefiting their party.
indeed.

Between him following dipshit around and also trying to help the calexit just seems like too many russian ties.

"Ukip has also faced scrutiny, given that Nigel Farage and other senior staff have praised Mr Putin and accused the EU of “provoking” Russia’s annexation of Crimea. However, there is no evidence of any direct contacts between the party and Russian officials."

I hope they can find some.
