29. Well I hope they aren't in Al Capone's vault next to the "real" Obama birth certificate

But as long as they are useful to the Russians, then they will remain that way.

The "you want nice Russian girl" thing was a staple of KGB and Russian Mafia hi-jinks going all the way back the Cold War. Any American business person with minimal briefing would know this.

Putin was head of the KGB, for crying out loud. What he has done by merging the Russian criminal element and its interests into what is essentially Russian national interest, and bringing the Russian Orthodox Church along for the ride has put him right up there with Peter the Great.

He directly drew that connection between himself and Peter the Great in the Sochi Olympics opening ceremony.

They have got Donald and his whole crew just where they want them.

Chris Christie was too ethical for this bunch. Just think on that one for a minute.
