Donald Trump has been compromised. There's no doubt about it at this point. Putin either has a mountain of evidence he could release that prove Trump was involved in, or at least aware of, his campaign working with Russia to beat Hillary.
Either that, or Putin has a pee pee tape.
I know Mueller is methodical, so it may still be months and even year away, but it is going to be so satisfying when he takes Trump down and Donny cries and screams "witch hunt" as he's removed forcibly from office.

I think it's more likely that Putin could easily expose the extent to which laundered money from the Russian mob has financed Trump properties for the last 10-20 years.
The Russians were indeed a great help in defeating Hitler. I remember Gen. Eisenhower referring to the Russian army as the 'great prize' in connection with the end-game strategy in WWII.
Not dismissing Russia’s help. But to defend them while throwing our current alies under the bus is unacceptable.
Plus zi remember bringing up how Canada helped us in WW2 when these Terrifs started. People dismissed ot as the past.
Like ok, now we remember WW2?
The populations of the United States and the USSR were about the same, 130,000,000, when both nations went to war within six months of each other in 1941. To Americans, we were sending our boys to fight a foreign war that we'd never experience. To the Soviets, it was an up front and personal war of monumental savagery. America would lose slightly more than 400,000 soldiers (killed or missing) and almost no civilians during World War II and the USSR, depending on which historian you believe, would lose at least 11,000,000 soldiers (killed and missing) as well as somewhere between 7,000,000 and 20,000,000 million of its civilian population during the Great Patriotic War.
Looking only at Anglo-American forces engaged against German soldiers on our two fronts, northwest Europe and Italy, the United States lost 139,380 soldiers (killed and missing) during the conflict. General Eisenhower had just over 3,000,000 men under his command, with about a third of them safely in England, and faced a German Army of less than 1,500,000 of which our forces killed 834,314. At the same time, Soviet armies in excess of 20,000,000 soldiers were fighting German armies totaling 5,700,000 at their strongest and killed 2,415,690 of them as they fought their way out of Russia and on to Berlin.
These are the numbers that make Russians bristle when they hear Americans say to each other that we won the war in Europe. For every American soldier killed fighting Germans, eighty Soviet soldiers died fighting them.
Did "the left" put that word...over and over again...into Don the Con's mouth?
MAD has actually worked quite well - along with NATO. Trump comes along and rachets up Nuclear tensions...and then claims his intention is to negotiate to mitigate them! Wow.....they WERE actually mitigated before he started throwing around the idea.....
Russia was...and is...declared to be not in a situation with the USA where it represents a clear and present danger in the nuclear sense. The "war" now is for Way of Life and Hearts and Minds....and Russia is winning that by a country mile.
They have clearly said they don't believe in the "Western Way" which includes everything from the Enlightenment to our values of equality and fairness. They don't hide it.
This is a "social battle", not one of arms.
Personally I don't care if they wield more influence with their neighbors (NK, China, etc.)....they have that right. But they have gone way past that in short-circuiting our political system here. This will cause problems for both countries, as the USA (after Trump...but even now, with sanctions) will extract payback.
Putin isn't as smart as some give him credit for...he definitely puts Trump to shame, but his country is a sad representation of a modern Republic.
