If Trump has been compromised, Democrats will find out

At heart, the House Democrats will be investigating if Trump’s conflicts of interest between his business and the presidency have led to him being compromised by the Russians, the Saudis, or the Chinese. Trump can’t borrow money from US banks, so the funds for his business had to come from somewhere. Where the money came from is Russia, Saudi Arabia, and China.

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) has explained how the Russians have used money laundering to control Trump, “There have long been credible allegations that Russian money was laundered through the Trump Organization. If Russia could show that Trump, his business or his immediate family had benefited from tainted money or broken the law — or if Trump believed they could — it would mean that Russia could exert pressure on Trump to influence U.S. foreign policy.”

Trump has been compromised. It is just a matter of finding how much damage the president’s compromised status has done to the country and national security. - PoliticusUSA
