Trump and the Russians: A new book describes how it all began at a Las Vegas nightclub (barf alert!)
Yahoo News ^ | March 8, 2018 | Jerry Adler

Posted on 03/08/2018 8:12:29 AM PST by BurgessKoch

The seeds of the relationships between Donald Trump and key figures in the Russian business and political worlds — now the subject of special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation — were planted at least five months before Trump’s now famous 2013 trip to Moscow, during a previously unreported visit to a raunchy Las Vegas nightclub with the son of a prominent oligarch and Putin ally, according to a new book about Trump and his Russian ties.

The excerpt being published today explores the events surrounding Trump’s November 2013 visit to Moscow to oversee the Miss Universe pageant, and to vigorously pursue his long-standing dream of building a Trump Tower in the Russian capital. A deal was reached for the project with Aras Agalarov, an oligarch known as “Putin’s builder,” with financing by a bank controlled by the Russian government.

That agreement, in turn, grew out of a June trip to Las Vegas, where Trump was presiding over the Miss USA pageant, a preliminary to Miss Universe. It has previously been reported that Trump dined with the Agalarovs, Goldstone and others at a Las Vegas restaurant while there. But as the book reveals, Trump later that night joined Agalarov, Goldstone and the reigning Miss Universe, Olivia Culpo, for an after-party at a nightclub called the Act, known for shows, extreme even by Vegas standards, that simulated acts of sadomasochism and bestiality and one in which female dancers pretended to be college students urinating on their professor. The club was the target of an undercover investigation by the Nevada Gaming Commission at the time of Trump’s visit, and many of its acts — including those involving simulated urination — were later banned by a Nevada state judge as “lewd” and “offensive,” court records obtained by the authors show. The Act has since closed.

If there is gratuitous nudity and some good action scenes, I'll watch the movie when it airs on FX someday.

As long as the braindead commie libs spend their money on trying to get these “books” for the braindead on the NYT “best sellers” list, its money they won’t have to spend on mischief in the November elections.

“to oversee the Miss Universe pageant, and to vigorously pursue his long-standing dream of building a Trump Tower in the Russian capital.”

Let me see, in 2013 Trump was a business man who owned the Universe Contest and his business was to build hotels. I guess promoting one’s businesses with a country the administration was attempting to “reset” relations with was bad?? Is that the point of this. Or is it to somehow give credence to that stupid dossier?

It never ends.

I heard from a 3 anonymous sources that Trump used to like Russian dressing in 2005 but now prefers Ranch. Not sure if Mueller knows this yet.

You think that’s bad?

Even worse.....Trump ate grilled salmon that once swam in Russian waters.

And this is hush-hush.......you are sworn to secrecy....
but Donald had Strawberries Romanoff for dessert, as well.

No evidence
But they simply cannot turn back now
The problem with lying. Is the lies have to keep going
If your purpose is to deceive
You’ll find yourself in a trap
You can never leave !

I can’t wait until the final stake into the heart of Trump. The evidence of Russian involvement to prove collusion, will be a Moscow telephone book, found in a room of one of his hotels. s/

No doubt, that alleged book will be about as full as BS as Michael Wolff’s full of BS book.....wonder if it will come with a disclaimer, as well.

Both the authors were key recipients of leaks from Christopher Steele.

Tidbit from the excerpt that confirms one of my suspicions about Soros' hand in Russian politics: "The group was ushered to the owner’s box, where Emin had an unusual encounter. Alex Soros, the son of George Soros, the bil­lionaire philanthropist who funded opposition to Putin, was there as Meriwether’s date. Emin started chatting with Soros and invited him to visit him in Moscow. 'You should know,' Soros replied, 'I’m no fan of Mr. Putin.' And, he added, he was a big admirer of Mikhail Khodorkovsky — the oligarch turned Putin critic then serving time in a Siberian prison. Emin laughed it off."

Ha ha. So the Russians have been grooming him since 2013? Wow, they know their stuff. Somehow, from among all the contenders, they got Trump to win the primary? And then some how had Trump, who had a 97% chance of losing according to the election stock market, win? How did they connect to those un-networked voting machine?

Ssshhhhh.....you are sworn to secrecy.

You wont find this in he book.

Candidate Trump ate grilled wild salmon that once swam in Russian waters. The chef had the nerve to serve Trump the salmon stuffed with Beluga Caviar all of it covered with beurre blanc sauce reduced with a soupcon of Russian vodka.

If you think Trump was finished with the Russians-—better think again.

Trump actually had Strawberries Romaonoff for dessert.
