1. He'll say this has nothing to do with him or the campaign.

This could show the beginnings of Russian tentacles into trump's real estate business, possible money laundering, and the start of Russian planning and access to trump as an asset.

trump will celebrate this and call it a nothing burger but this could show a big connection to money laundering and trump's sham real estate business.
