Trump, Mamafort & Putin......

Today Trump said that he would look at recognizing the annexation of Crimea from Ukraine. The United States currently does not. His campaignmnaer Paul Manafor as lobbyist worked (lobbied) in Ukraine fro a pro-Putin Ukrainian leader.

Read the article I posted about within the past 2 days.

I just found this article while googling Paul Manafort.........

Trump's campaign manager. It is a very good read. Bottom line Manafort has turned dictators into people who are liked. He has worked to turn Ukranians toward Russia and many other things.

That's Manafort's job, to turn Trump into a liked person. I suggest reading it for more information.

The Ukrainian people loved him. Here they are in the hundreds of thousands showing their love.



Word is, Yanukovych was so touched by the outpouring, he sent out his secret police to greet his admirers with rifles and billy clubs.

who do you think the Russians would want back in power in Ukraine? So by default, Trump would favor this because Manafort thinks it's the right thing to do.
