Putin’s unfinished meddling in the 2016 election; Thomas Loxley; Beaver County Times; September 19, 2017.
Previous Thomas Loxley (TL) letters I reviewed were “We should demand a runoff election,” “Chaos is invariably a harbinger of destruction,” “Don’t be misled; global warming is real,” “Immigration and defense polices are contradictory,” “Putin plans to destroy America from within,” “Can Americans accept the challenge of democracy,” “Will GOP overreach destroy the party,” “Election interference demands a runoff” and “Cracker plant will turn Beaver into Stinkville.”
Below is a detailed critique of the subject letter.
“I suspect President Donald Trump is probably having nightmares worrying about Russia’s next move. Indeed, the myopic thinking of most Americans seems incapable of anticipating the longer Russian strategy involved. While we play checkers, Vladimir Putin loves chess.
“After the fall of the Soviet Union, Trump was one of the man potential players in promoting their interests. That spiked with the Miss Universe Pageant and his presidential aspirations. Now that he has conceivably outlived his usefulness, I believe the Russians may well have set up a ‘coup de grace’ designed for maximum impact on America.
“The USSR collapse and subsequent international economic sanctions had a major impact on the Russian economy and its vital access to hard currency. The government was then surely involved in turning Russia into today’s global leader in illicit money laundering. America drug profits have become so big traditional laundering operations can’t handle it. Investigators tell of freight containers full of dollars. No worry, Russian can handle it all for 25 percent. However, Putin would never be satisfied with just making a profit. His access to the inner workings of the illicit drug trade represents a wealth of compromising information on world leaders.
“While the Russians choreographed Trump’s election, they could now arrange his dramatic demise with a monumental impact. This may include anonymously releasing some scandalous video, proof linking him to the heroin trade or another horrific reality.
“Any leak would naturally be designed so that it does not jeopardize their future money laundering operation.”
