A former senior Soviet KGB spy chief has claimed that Donald Trump was recruited as a spy by Russian intelligence as early as 38 years ago by his department, and given the codename ‘Krasnov’.

In an extraordinary post on Facebook on 20 February, Alnur Mussayev – who used to run the successor to the Soviet-era KGB in Kazakhstan – claimed that he was personally aware of Trump’s recruitment by the agency in 1987.

The recruitment, he said, was undertaken by his own KGB department. One of the key roles of that department was to acquire intelligence through business leaders in Western countries.

    He’s 110% compromised, and it’s why his whole staff met with Russians ahead of his taking office the 1st time, why Russians never went into the logs, why nothing they talked about ever came out of the room, and why he is continuing to do Putin’s bidding with regard to Ukraine currently. Not believing so plays into his “Russia Russia Russia” misinformation campaign. Putin may not have Kompromat, but I think Trump would sell the US for a few Trump hotels in Russia, and a place to flee should anyone with authority actually tries to hold him accountable for his laundry list of crimes and treasonous actions.

    Also remember he also has had help from Moscow Mitch, and the seven members of Congress that went to report the “Russia Russia Russia” status back to Trump’s handlers and get further instructions.
