WHAT PRESSURE IS PUTIN PUTTING ON TRUMP?

As I listen to the latest news concerning Trump's activities in Ukraine, I cannot help but wonder why Trump is so desperate to pull Putin's chestnuts out of the fire, that he would risk his presidency so foolishly.  What is this urgency for a resolution to Putin's problems by having Ukraine take the blame for the attack on the U.S. 2016 elections and to end all resistance to Moscow's invasion of Eastern Ukraine and Crimea, and why has Trump been forced to take this task on?  What kind of pressure is Putin able to put on Trump to take these extraordinary risks?

  1. Could it be that Trump has interests and/or is financially invested in businesses that are affected by sanctions? After all, it’s all about removing sanctions. Just guessin’.

  2. It is a possibility but he already has made the U.S. into his largest source of income andhe would only put that into jeopardy under duress.

  3. No rationality can be attributed to a demented mind. Behavior by what pops in his head at the moment. Yesterday was a PERFECT example of erratic behavior in front of the embarrassed Fin President. What a nightmare!
