Trump Nags Putin To Send Him Dirt On Biden As Ukraine Invasion Sputters

Six years after calling on Russian President Vladimir Putin for aid against Hillary Clinton, twice-impeached defeated ex-president Donald Trump is now asking for the murderous dictator’s help in finding dirt on Joe Biden and sending him “garbage,” HuffPost senior White House correspondent S. V. Date reported.

Putin may be accused of slaughtering children and overseeing other war crimes in Ukraine, but that’s not stopping longtime admirer Trump from asking him for political help again.

Trump, who tried to overthrow American democracy in an attempt to retain power despite losing the 2020 election by 7.5 million votes to Biden, is now asking Putin to find damaging information on his successor’s son.

Jason Easley also reported for PoliticusUSA that Trump is obsessed with getting information on the conspiracy theory that Hunter Biden received millions of dollars from the wife of Moscow’s late mayor, Yury Luzhkov.

“She gave him $3.5 million, so now I would think Putin would know the answer to that. I think he should release it,” Trump said in the interview conducted by Politico at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida. “I think we should know that answer.”

“I would think Putin would know the answer to that,” Trump said in an interview airing on Real America’s Voice, a pro-Trump website, regarding a payment a decade ago from a Russian oligarch’s wife to a company founded by Hunter Biden, son of President Joe Biden.

“I think he should release it.” It’s been nearly six years since Trump called on Russia to “find” emails from then-Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton, Trump’s rival in the 2016 presidential election.

“Russia, if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing,” he said at a July 27, 2016, news conference.

Subsequent investigations determined that Russia did, in fact, honor Trump’s request, starting that same day. Putin’s intelligence services carried out a multifaceted effort to boost Trump’s campaign, including the theft of thousands of documents from the Democratic National Committee and Clinton’s campaign advisers.

Putin then began releasing the stolen material in the final month of the campaign through the allied WikiLeaks group, and Trump ― even though he had been told by US intelligence agencies that Russia had carried out the theft ― centered the last few weeks of his campaign on that material.
