It's insane that anyone needs more proof.
He's been pretty clearly working with Russia since like the 90's.
The Russia investigation origins conspiracy theory or Russia counter-narrative[1] is a conspiracy theory narrative created by Donald Trump, Rudy Giuliani, Republican Party leaders, and right-wing[2][3] conservatives.[4] It attacks the legitimacy and conclusions of multiple investigations into Russian interference in the 2016 elections and the public and secretive links between Russian intelligence and Trump associates. Trump in particular has attacked the origins and conclusions of the Crossfire Hurricane and Mueller investigations and ordered Attorney General William Barr[5][6] and U.S. attorney John Durham[7] to conduct reviews of the investigations.[8][9][10][11]

As someone who actually watched the impeachment ... Holy shit there is SO MUCH evidence that Trump's campaign was helped by Russia and that he is basically a Russian tool. Like ... Mountains of evidence that people just pretend doesn't exist.
It's wild AF to me honestly. People just don't want to believe what the evidence says is the truth so they called it a "Russia hoax" and that's that. All it took was saying the word hoax for all of Trump's bootlicking sycophants to ignore their own eyes and ears.
I think it's more just about the regular person not having the interest to even remotely look at the thing.
If the large majority of people actually were made to watch and give their verdict... I think it would be pretty clear.
The crazies are a minority but they're a very vocal minority so that it seems like there's some actual debate doing on, when there fucking isnt. But the perception of "it's still undecided" is what serves Trump.
"The evidence isn't in yet."
Yes it fucking is Trump is a Russian shill
Trump is willing to surrender our our natural resources to Russia cause he is weak. He always has been weak and everyone knows it. Also he rapes children.

America first to be sold
I like the Woody Guthrie line from his song Lindbergh about the American fascist collaborators in the 40s:
And I'm gonna tell you workers,
'fore you cash in your checks
They say "America First," but they mean "America Next!"
In Washington, Washington...
Same Guthrie that wrote a couple song lyrics about Trump's father's properties and the racial divide that was there.
From his 1955 song, Old Man Trump:
I suppose that Old Man Trump knows just how much racial hate
He stirred up in that bloodpot of human hearts
When he drawed that color line
Here at his Beach Haven family projectBeach Haven ain't my home!
No, I just can't pay this rent!
My money's down the drain,
And my soul is badly bent!
Beach Haven is Trump’s Tower
Where no black folks come to roam,
No, no, Old Man Trump!
Old Beach Haven ain't my home!

Offer the country you’re spending billions against in a proxy war resources that will likely find their way, directly or indirectly, used against the US’s financial expenditures in the war.
No wonder this idiot bankrupted a casino.
Four casinos.
Don't forget: bankruptcy only affects the business, hence golden parachutes. Being a casino owner wasn't enough, bastard had to screw over the workers too
Complete hypothetical, stay with me, but if Trump was a Russian asset what would he be doing differently? 🤔
The only thing I can think of is to be less obvious about it.
A properly trained russian agent wouldn't be so blatantly corrupt, surely.
Then again he's a damned imbecile so he's doing the best he can with the 5 brain cells he's got.
He isn't a Russian agent he is too dumb for that. You don't "train" assets you handle them, whoever his handler is, their life must be complicated.
Not agent, asset. And as for him needing to be subtle, why? There's been zero consequences for pretty much anything he's done. At this point I'll be absolutely shocked if he doesn't illegally try to hold onto power after his term is up.
The world would literally be about 100x better without Trump and Putin.
You get what you pay for. I have a feeling Trump is doing it for free.

How is it that I'm not even born in the US and somehow I'm more American than the average American in my country.
Traitors, to the gallows.

Trump is handling the peace negotiations in the most spectacularly embarrassing way. Giving the aggressors in a conflict concessions in exchange for a pinky swear that they won't do it again? Wow, what a concept. Historically bulletproof strategy that has never failed or backfired in any way.
I saw someone write once that Trump is so obsessed with making deals, and being known as a great dealmaker, to the point where the terms of the deal are often irrelevant to him. If the terms are favorable, he honors the deal. If he discovers later that the terms were not favorable to him, he reneges.
This kind of behavior works when you are a billionaire developing real estate because the people he screws over rarely have the funds to fight him in court, and have their workers' livelihoods to think about. Even if they do take him on, or they get a law team to work pro bono, he drags out the court proceedings and delays paying court judgements, or he opts to settle for much less than what was promised initially.
This doesn't work in geopolitics, but he doesn't know how to operate any other way. He wants to make a deal, and if he has to give away America's most valuable natural resources to close that deal, he'll do it. Doesn't matter if Putin has no intention of giving up the fight in Ukraine, Trump just wants to feel like he's some great peacemaker.
It doesn't work this way in geopolitics? I thought the USA was infamous for breaking its deals.
I don’t know how many times I need to spell it out Americans:
Line item #2
You need to deal with your worthless president hellbent on destroying the planet.

Jesus fucking Christ. Will someone for the love of God get this asshole out of office! This isn't yugo fucking salvia!
Just arrest him and prosecute him!
He will NEVER see a jail cell, never. There’s really only one way to deal with him at this point
Under Tito, Yugoslavia stood up to the Russians.
The man was a tyrant, no question, but after he took power he actually tired to do some good for his country... Well... Until the CIA pinned the Muslims against the Christians and tore the country apart.

What did you expect? Trump is a goddamn Kremlin Gremlin.
And there people were joking about Trump giving Putin Alaska.
I have been saying for years he is going to donate Alaska to Russia...and now this.
I should not be, but I am entirely astonished right now, lol.

Yeah, in case you didn't realize, he's literally a fucking traitor, and he isn't going to stop fucking us over until a violent mob kills him. The longer we wait, the harder it will get. That's why it needs to be done before the end of the month

Trump needs to give his own shit to his boyfriend Putin. Get off your knees you pedo traitor! When is this demented old man going to keel over?!?!
Headline is a bit misleading:
There has been no confirmation that such a proposal is on the table, and Newsweek has contacted the White House and the office of Alaska's governor for comment. The Telegraph cited a White House statement that it did not comment "on deliberative conversations that may or may not be happening."
I loathe Trump and won't be surprised if he does in fact offer this, but he hasn't actually proposed it to Putin yet.
