Donald Trump could rightly be seen as a Russian asset, according to a former FBI director the ex-president fired in his first term.
Andrew McCabe appeared on the One Decision podcast co-hosted by former British intelligence agency chief Sir Richard Dearlove, who asked whether he thought it possible that Trump was a Russian asset, and he said, “I do, I do,” reported The Guardian.
“I don’t know that I would characterize it as [an] active, recruited, knowing asset in the way that people in the intelligence community think of that term," McCabe said. "But I do think that Donald Trump has given us many reasons to question his approach to the Russia problem in the United States, and I think his approach to interacting with Vladimir Putin, be it phone calls, face-to-face meetings, the things that he has said in public about Putin, all raise significant questions
McCabe raised suspicions about Trump’s attitude toward Ukraine and NATO in the face of Russian aggression and said he’s had concerns about his admiration for Vladimir Putin

“You have to have some very serious questions about, why is it that Donald Trump … has this fawning sort of admiration for Vladimir Putin in a way that no other American president, Republican or Democrat, ever has," McCabe said.

McCabe expressed “very serious concerns about a second Trump presidency and said that Russia had long desired to interfere with U.S. democracy.
OK… then why is FBI doing nothing?
They havent done ‘nothing’ though. They were heavily involved in investigating the classified documents case against him?
(Which has some of his most serious charges, of it hadnt been thrown out by his own corrupt appointee judge, it was dismissed on basically nonsensical reasons)
I can’t answer this for all FBI but Trump did fire this guy during an investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election. Two days before he was set to retire…
If a crime is committed why wouldnt FBI under biden act on it?
I’m not disagreeing but I also see that the judicial system is pretty bad right now.
I’m guessing if anything happened to him under Democrat lawmakers, he’d just make himself out to be a martyr. It’s kind of a lose-lose situation for Biden to do anything about. To be honest. I don’t know who has that power anyway.
