After nearly four years of investigations into Trump’s past it is well known that he is a horribly failed businessman. If not for the Saudi Royal Family in 1995, and Russian oligarchs in 2005 Trump would be penniless. His refusal to reveal his tax returns is definitive proof that his private life is a façade.

What we just learned is that during the 2016 campaign, when Trump used much of his own money to fund his events, he was desperate for ‘cash.’ He applied for a loan from the one bank which remained ‘friendly’ to the failed businessman; Deutsche Bank. He was turned down.

“Senior officials at the bank, including its future chief executive, believed that Mr. Trump’s divisive candidacy made such a loan too risky, the people said. Among their concerns was that if Mr. Trump won the election and then defaulted, Deutsche Bank would have to choose between not collecting on the debt or seizing the assets of the president of the United States.”

Now let’s get to the facts. By August 2016, Trump’s campaign was failing. His poor choice of every close adviser from his campaign managers to his press secretaries were failing to secure positive coverage among the press and television “news.”

When the man known as the “worst senator in Washington,” Ted Cruz, finally withdrew from his failed campaign, the man who financed Cruz failed effort to win the Republican nomination, Robert Mercer, brought his billions of dollars to Trump’s campaign. It was mandatory that with his money came Steve Bannon, who became the CEO of Trump’s campaign, and Kellyanne Conway as Trump’s new “Campaign Manager.” The truth was that she immediately became Trump’s chief liar. When he continued to make dozens of wild and fallacious statements, it was her responsibility to cover-up his many, many errors.

The ultimate truth is that without Mercer, Trump would have lost the election by double digits, even with the aid of Vladimir Putin.

Now, here’s a fact no one wants you to know. Mercer has clandestine connections to Vladimir Putin and his oligarchs. It is no secret in Mercer’s secretive world that he opposes a democratic form of government. He is a supporter of totalitarian governments.

After Trump’s illegitimate election by the Electoral College, it became obvious that all decisions made by the orange man were the result of demands from Putin and Mercer, conveyed through Steve Bannon. Fascism was replacing democracy in America.

The most recent mistake by Trump was the result of a direct order from Vladimir Putin. Putin has long sought an end to the ban on mid-range nuclear weapons agreed to by Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev in 1987. He is willing to use these weapons of mass destruction against Russians who were once members of the Union of Soviet Socialists Republic.

Trump did not decide to revoke the treaty, he was ordered to do so. He is an agent of Vladimir Putin and may have been so since 1987.

Trump is a tool of foreign governments and billionaires; nothing more. He succumbs to their directives without question. Putin, Mercer, and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman give him his orders and he complies.

The truth should be told. I am the only man in America who has the courage to reveal the truth. If they assassinate me, that’s okay; I am an old man who believes in America and the people’s right to know.

Please tell your friends about my blog; thank you.
