Kremlin papers reveal Putin’s plot to put "mentally unstable and unbalanced" Trump in White House
and detail how Russia launched a secret multi-agency effort to interfere in Western democracy
According to leaked official Kremlin documents, Vladimir Putin personally authorised a secret spy agency operation to support a “mentally unstable” Donald Trump in the 2016 USA presidential election.
The key meeting took place on 22 January 2016, with the Russian president, his spy chiefs, and senior ministers in a closed session of Russia’s national security council.
They agreed a Trump White House would help secure Moscow’s strategic objectives, among them “social turmoil” in the USA and weakening the American president’s negotiating position.
In a decree bearing Putin’s signature, Russia’s three spy agencies were ordered to find practical ways to support Trump, who they described as an “impulsive, mentally unstable, and unbalanced individual who suffers from an inferiority complex.”
Report “No 32-04 \ vd” confirms that the Kremlin possesses kompromat (compromising material) on Trump, collected from his earlier “non-official visits to Russian Federation territory.”
Putin has repeatedly denied accusations of interfering in Western democracy, but these official documents contradict his claim.
The papers set out a route map for what actually happened in 2016 - how the Russian president, his spy officers, and senior ministers were all intimately involved in one of the most important and audacious espionage operations of the 21st century:
A successful plot to put the “mentally unstable and unbalanced” Trump in the White House.
Pro-Trumpism - and anti-democracy moves such as gerrymandering, limiting voter freedom, expanding the police state, and so on - aids Russia and harms American democracy.
So next time you see someone blatantly supporting Russian Puppet Trump, know that they're not only okay with racism, misogyny, authoritarianism, and all his other sins, now they also support anti-Americanism.
