Showing Original Post only (View all)National security expert John Schindler: Trump should fear 'assassination' by Putin if he stops bein [View all]
https://www.rawstory.com/2018/08/national-security-expert-john-schindler-trump-fear-assassination-putin-stops-valuable/National security expert John Schindler, a former NSA analyst, argued on Thursday that President Donald Trump should fear assassination by Russian President Vladimir Putin if he becomes no longer valuable to the Russian Federation.
In a column for the Observer, Schindler writes that Putin can do worse to Trump than the impeachment proceedings he might be facing after special counsel Robert Mueller closes his investigation into Russias attack on the U.S. election system.

President Trump has more than mere kompromat to worry about here, he says. Under Vladimir Putin, Russian intelligence has embarked on a global assassination spree of a kind not seen in the Kremlin since Stalins time [L]ess than three years ago, Putins operatives murdered in the heart of our nations capital, just a mile from the White House.
That message was hard to miss, he adds. Robert Mueller can open the door to Donald Trumps impeachment and prosecution. Vladimir Putin can do worse and does not need to play by any legal rules.

I just look at their obsession with pedophilia, and their rampant projection about everything.
