Just asking: Did Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich meet with the Trump family in Aspen last week?

According to multiple reports via anonymous sources, President Trump was angry that Jared Kushner, a senior advisor to the president, was on vacation in Aspen while the American Health Care Act (AHCA) faltered in Congress. A White House official publicly denied these claims.

Either way, the Trump family vacation in Aspen was no minor outing. In 2015, Ivanka described it as a family tradition. Jared Kushner certainly doesn’t have a reputation for being a slacker, and the battle in Washington over ‘Trumpcare’ had been raging for days.

Ivanka, Eric, Lara and Donald Trump Jr. traveled to Aspen on Saturday, March 18. Jared Kushner joined his family in Aspen, Colorado (flying from Washington, D.C. in the famous Trump family Boeing 757) on the the same day that Roman Abramovich’s plane arrived in Colorado, from Moscow.

Roman Abramovich, a powerful Russian oligarch and associate of Russian President Vladimir Putin, owns property in Aspen. Roman’s wife, Dasha Zhukova, is a close friend of Ivanka Trump. She was a guest of Ivanka at Trump’s inauguration.

The nearest airport to Aspen that can safely handle an aircraft as large as the Trump 757 is 32 miles away, in Eagle, Colorado. Abramovich’s 767 jet is larger and even more limited to large airports with longer runways and safer approaches. His aircraft landed in Denver, 125 miles away from Aspen.

The story doesn't end there.

On Thursday, March 20, Abramovich’s plane flew to the northern Lesser Antilles, a group of islands in the Caribbean Sea. On the same day, two aircraft linked to Michael Cohen did the same – one via Palm Beach, Florida, home of Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort. It’s important to note that Caribbean nations are famous for their tax haven status, and it’s possible that these trips are purely coincidental.

Abramovich’s aircraft landed in St. Maarten, while two smaller Beauty Central LLC-owned Gulfstream jets landed in Anguilla (one of which stopped in Palm Beach, first.) St. Maarten, St. Martin, St. Barth and Anguilla are nearly the same destination. The islands lie several miles apart and have close economic and social ties. St. Maarten (formerly Dutch) and St. Martin (formerly French) are actually two sides of the same island. Each island has an airport, but they differ in their size and ability to serve large aircraft.

3. The Russian owns a pretty big house in Aspen

And he is building or buying one in NYC. Jared has been to Aspen and NYC.

The Russian fascinates me ever since he parked his boat in Manhattan for a month. His boat had anti aircraft missiles on it. If you are aware of NYC restrictions against personally owned anti aircraft missiles, that is kind of a big deal.

5. Oh man, I just love that there are so many

people out there lending their hands to connect the dots. Seems like way too much of a coincidence to me.

6. The "coincidences" keep piling up

More smoke; there has to be at least a small fire in there somewhere.

7. The plot thickens

Who met with Trump Saturday?

[MineralMan]

8. Seems likely to me.

There are just too many private jets owned by Russians flying into the same places the Trump administration people are going. I guess none of those people realize that people are watching.

The thot plickens.

From the same article:

The story doesn't end there.

On Thursday, March 20, Abramovich’s plane flew to the northern Lesser Antilles, a group of islands in the Caribbean Sea.

Each island has an airport, but they differ in their size and ability to serve large aircraft.

It’s unclear wether or not any of these flights are related, but further investigation is certainly warranted.

10. I'm sure this is just another coincidence as well. n/t

11. Thank You for this!

It did seem odd, the timing of their "vacation", 'family tradition' or not..
Of all weeks, trump's worst so far, & his closest allies run off to ski?
Now, it makes more sense,meeting with Russia friends.
Family TRADITION.

12. Trump is so guilty drawing attention to Jared

with his lie about him being on Vacay during the AHCA debacle.

Trump never cared a wit about health care, he just cares about his dealings with the Russians.

13. The likelihood is 100%.

14. Wow, just too many "coincidences" for there not to be a BIG fire here. nt

[heaven05]

16. landing same day......

hmmmmm....I'm sure it's just coincidence... They really don't care that people know these things. They don't care that people know they will just spin and outright lie about EVERYTHING. They really see themselves as 21st century 'rulers' who could give a damn about "of the people, by the people, for the people".... To hell with ALL boy-potus, bannon, millers voters.

19. Was Wendi Deng a high profile head fake for the real purpose of their Croatian vacay?

Confirmed: Rybolovlev's Jet & Yacht were in Dubrovnik the same time as Ivanka and Jarred Kushner

Remember when Ivanka Trump and Jarred Kushner went to Dubrovnik, Croatia this past summer? Remember how they met up with Wendy Deng and David Geffen for relaxation and sightseeing? Was that some kind a distraction (aka maskirovka) for something more nefarious, knowing the media would cover them along side Deng and Geffen? Did Russian oligarch, Demitry Rybolovlev, meet up with Kushner at some point? Another diarist wrote a diary about Rybolovlev being Putin’s courier. I think they were on to something. Several others have also written similar diaries about Trump’s connection to Rybolovlev. What was he doing in Croatia the same time that Ivanka and Kushner were there? Sightseeing? Show me the pics. He’s well known.

From Dubrovnik, Ivanka and Kushner went to Hvar, which is an island about 3-4 hours by boat. Ivanka herself documented being in both Dubrovnik and Hvar on Instagram. What’s interesting is that she and American media sources waited until August 14th to post pics and stories, while Croatian media reported her in Dubrovnik on August 12th and arriving August 11th. Why wait and post both pics days later? Was she trying to hide something?
