The were talking about Crimea and the host shouts out "Crimea is Ours!  Trump is Ours!"

I don't see how anyone CAN'T see this at this point, Trump has been doing almost nothing but touting Putin's line since he got in the White House.   Everything the guy does lines up with Russia's interests almost exactly.   Russia is the one who probably make the North Korean summit happen and also the one who ended the military exercises with South Korea as well.

I doubt Trump is "theirs" in the way some would love to assume. To the extent that he belongs to them, it is likely that his thoughts (and those of his closest influences) are part of an emergent, now transatlantic semicoherent worldview that seeks an alliance with Russia, and is openly hostile to and, often vocalizes their perception that, the "Western elite" (Brussels bureaucrats, MSM, "the swamp") are the real enemies. Look at the currents of thought dominating the right-wing across Europe, whether it is Farage, Le Pen, Orban, or whoever, the majority of them seek the death of the post-WWII political order, the disintegration of the existing EU, and a newfound alliance that necessarily includes Russia.

Whether particular financial interests, along with or even underlying, these new ideas is the real motivating factor is debatable.

Another proof Trump is a Russian agent.
If he becomes the King of the United States, He'll have to organize his coronation in Moscow.

His official title would be "Trump", not "King" just like how Octavian was "Caesar".

At least they're honest. It kind of reminds me of that movie cliche when a villain reveals their plan in a movie and are unknowingly being recorded.

I think Octavian/Augustus was technically "First Citizen". The Caesar = Title thing came later.

But even with that in mind, Trump is quite a bit more blatant about it than any of those listed.
