Fired FBI Official: Trump a Russian Asset
Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe asserted that Donald Trump’s actions raise serious questions about his relationship with Russia, though not necessarily as a formally recruited asset. McCabe cited Trump’s public admiration for Vladimir Putin, questionable approach to the Ukraine conflict, and willingness to negotiate with Russia even at the expense of US interests as significant concerns. These behaviors, McCabe argued, warrant further investigation into potential compromises or undue influence from Russia. The lack of investigation into pro-Trump influencers spreading pro-Russia narratives further fuels such concerns.
