... benefits the Russians.

The Russians are long ball players, they'll lose a battle to win the war and not move on money for decades to be able to realize gains.

the Saudis and Jarvanka, they have bigly debt too and it's probably to the Sauds. Somebody's siphoning off all these payouts. There are funds that have never been used for their appropriated purpose... where is all that money? Dipshit has lost his mind so I can't give him all the credit of knowing how to steer even this comedy capers of failed investment when it comes to defrauding the government.

OR

It's possibly paying off dirty tricksters and troll farms to keep our world in turmoil while they rob us blind.

That's all - this is just more liberal derangement syndrome at work here. Fox News has taken over the White House and they're calling the shots at this point.

But Putin may want a down payment.

What an interesting idea - a big time bullshitter gets himself so far in debt to the Mafia that the only place he can turn for help is the rogue state of Russia.
Russia then plots a plan where he can get the money to pay his debt to them - become president and rob the country blind. Hire a bunch of similarly compromised people to run the government so no one will snitch on anyone else.

What you can't steal you sell to the highest bidder.

Never happen......

it's the money. It's an embezzlement of taxpayer money; and a lot of it destined for Trump's pockets.
