How Lev Parnas Became Part of the Trump Campaign’s “One Big Family”

When Parnas was sixteen, he worked at Kings Highway Realty, selling Trump Organization co-ops. “That was my first time knowing who Trump was, but, growing up in that area, you knew who Trump was, because his name was all over the place,” he said.

Parnas, the hot-shot kid, could have made a lot of cold calls to hook the fish, then Kings Highway Realty landed the fish. That is, if this story isn't bogus.

Lots of other tasks in a real estate business, and with the Trumps, lots of ways to skirt the laws

and Fred Trump died in 1999, Lev would have 27 then, so I am thinking he must have been rather young when working for Trump.
Wonder what he was doing, and if he met young Dolt 45 then.

They've known each other for decades, and yet Trump insists he doesn't know him.
For Trump, loyalty is a one way street; all coming in, none going out.

and his faithful devotees will say either 1. that is not Trump, 2. The video is fake or 3. The puppy asked for it.

Faithful devotees are a menace to every party.
