US General Believes Trump has been Bought by Moscow

While it’s been discussed for years in Eastern Europe, at least since the 1980s, the topic has not been broached by American mainstream media, pundits and experts. Is President Donald J. Trump an asset of Russia? His moniker is “Krasnoy” — red, red head, copper head, etc.

Many Americans have not heard of this until now.

Former US Army Europe commander claims Putin is pressuring Trump.  “I think he’s been bought,” retired US General Ben Hodges said on the German political talk show Maybrit Illner.

“I can’t prove it, but it’s absolutely clear that President Trump is under some kind of pressure from Vladimir Putin. I think he’s been bought,” Hodges said.

Hodges observed Trump now has two options: admit that he is beholden to Putin or try to escape accountability by counting on protection from his successor.

“We’ve never had a perfect president. But having a president who is not only corrupt himself, but also allows others to be corrupt, is an incredible disgrace,” Hodges concluded.
