This is it, 100% perfect. He was the poster boy for the blowhard business loser. By the early 90s, the NY times was reporting on investigations into money laundering schemes with Russian Oligarchs/mobsters.
His bank was Deutsche Bank, which was dubbed “the world’s dirtiest bank” when investigations showed that their customers included corrupt business executives, dictators, terrorists, cartels, etc. He was traveling in rough circles by then, and it was well-known. His FBI file must have filled an entire cabinet, and that was in the early 90s.
So imagine Comey’s and the FBI’s reaction, years later, when this known criminal was getting closer and closer to the White House, and they see all that’s going on with Russia and such? Trump has always characterized their investigations into him as spying, but they were doing exactly what they were supposed to do - investigate threats to national security.
