BOBBEE BEE: IS DONALD TRUMP A MANCHURICAN CANDIDATE?

IS DONALD TRUMP A MANCHURICAN CANDIDATE?

On July 17, Michael Avenatti, the attorney for porn star Stormy Daniels, accused President Trump on of being a Russian agent planted in the White House — a “Manchurian candidate.”
By definition a Manchurian candidate is a person, especially a politician, being used as a puppet by an enemy power. The term is commonly used to indicate disloyalty or corruption, whether intentional or unintentional.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation investigation of Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign’s ties to Russia was called “Crossfire Hurricane.” The name refers to the Rolling Stones lyric “I was born in a crossfire hurricane,” from the 1968 hit “Jumpin’ Jack Flash.”
Former U.S. Director of National Intelligence James Clapper suggested 19 July 2018 that Russian efforts may have reached into the White House.
“I’ve been trying my best to give the president the benefit of the doubt and always expressed potential other theories as to why he behaves as he does with respect to Russia generally and Putin specifically,” Clapper told CNN when asked about Trump’s refusal to back the findings of the U.S. intelligence community during his joint news conference with Putin in Helsinki.
“But more and more I come to a conclusion after the Helsinki performance and since, that I really do wonder if the Russians have something on him,” Clapper said.
There have also been persistent rumors that some members of Congress could also be doing Russia’s bidding a notion reinforced by Bill Browder, the chief executive officer of Hermitage Capital and a driving force behind the Magnitsky Act, which allows Washington to withhold visas and freeze financial assets of Russian officials thought to be corrupt or human rights abusers.
