TRUMP, TREASON, AND HOW TRUMP IS MIMICKING PUTIN

In a few short weeks, Trump will become the 47th President of the United States - and perhaps the last. This is NOT something to celebrate, but an inauguration date that may go down in history as the end of the U.S. democracy. Trump was telling the truth when he said: “If I am elected, there won’t be future elections, and you won’t have to vote again.” (The Hill, July 29, 2024) In Russia, the president is elected directly through a popular vote to a six-year term. The process is basically the same as in the U.S. - except under Putin, it is totally manipulated. Putin began his presidency in 2000 and has been in office for almost 25 years. The Russian DUMA (their Congress) has voted to leave Putin in power until 2034. They vote out of fear, just like the U.S. Congress could not impeach Trump (twice). Members of our Congress and their families were threatened. Putin has no intention of retiring and will help Trump with this same process.

Donald Trump is either following Putin’s instructions or following Putin’s playbook to a tee. If Trump says there will be no more elections once he is re-elected - then BELIEVE HIM. This will be a jaw-dropping revelation for those who voted for this man, as well as an immeasurable giant step toward a dictatorship. Roughly half the population in the United States voted for Donald Trump. In doing so, they have unleashed a sociopath leadership that will imitate the government currently found in Russia under Putin - a ruthless dictatorship based on lies and propaganda that lead to brainwashing. This is a term that refers to both coercive persuasion and a systematic process aimed at altering an individual’s beliefs, attitudes and behavior. (www.science.howstuffworks.com)

In the very near future, those who disagree with Trump may be arrested. Under Trump, those who walked thousands of miles to escape persecution and threats to live in the “land of free” may be seized and thrown into prisons, detention camps, and/or deported. Laws and justice - the backbones of the USA that I know - are almost obsolete, and the truth is now truant and no longer relative. And Trump is now mimicking Putin by threatening invasion of other sovereign nations. If he attacks these countries without provocation, the International Criminal Court may issue an arrest warrant to Trump for war crimes.

We are becoming a living/breathing version of 1984. The book called 1984, was authored by George Orwell. The back cover says “Written more than 70 years ago, 1984 was George Orwell’s chilling prophecy about the future. And while 1984 has come and gone, his dystopian vision of a government that will do anything to control the narrative is timelier than ever…”

Orwell wrote in the futuristic book called 1984 that “there are three slogans of the Party: war is peace, freedom is slavery, and ignorance is strength.” If this sounds like Donald Trump, then you are correct. (Ibid) And yes, the other half of the American population are tired of this doltish but deadly game. We see right through Trump’s lies.

In the U.S., Trump uses the slogan "Make America Great Again". It is the exact same type of rhetorical, stylistic and convincing message found in Russia, in Germany under Hitler, and now in the U.S. Trump "plants the seeds" and watch them grow in the minds of his many brainwashed followers. The truth - or law - no longer matters to these adherent partisans - it is what Trump says and wants. Trump has seduced a large portion of the American public, just like other dictators “whose reign is based on a disinformation and propaganda ecosystem which elevates malicious content and creates an illusion of credibility.” (U.S. Department of State, “Pillars of Disinformation").

The truth about the January 6^th insurrection is one such example. According to the NYT on January 5^th, 2025, an article written by Dan Barry and Alan Feuer, says: “The Jan. 6 tale that Mr. Trump tells is its own kind of replacement theory, one that covers over the marble-hard facts the (same) way a blue carpet will cover those tainted Capitol steps on Inauguration Day.” The FACTS go on to tell us that “hundreds of thousands of tips, tens of thousands of hours of video footage, thousands of seized cellphones all amount to the truth. American television replayed this violence over and over for six months. The attack on the Capitol was, after all, the largest digital crime scene in history, the total estimated cost of its aftermath exceeding $2.7 billion.” (Ibid) The Justice Department has stated that “over half of the 1,600 defendants have pleaded guilty. Sentences have ranged from a few days in jail to 22 years in prison for seditious conspiracy.” (Ibid) They all point the finger at Trump and the speech he gave after falsely claiming that the election was stolen, and that Trump had “reminded them to fight like hell.” (Ibid) Shortly afterward, Trump and his attorneys remarked “Trump had nothing to do with the insurrection.” (YouTube-PBS NewsHours, September 10, 2024)

Within six months of the insurrection, which according to Constitutional Law was a treasonous act, Trump changed his description from “calamitous” to a “largely peaceful day.” He said: “the mob had been ‘ushered in’ by the police and those who had rallied with him were a ‘loving crowd’.” This is madness. (Ibid) By mid-June, Tucker Carlson at Fox News – one of the most watched commentators in cable news, started saying that the “riot had been a false-flag operation orchestrated by the F.B.I.” (Ibid) Two Fox News contributors resigned saying that the Tucker program was “a hodgepodge of factual inaccuracies, half-truths, deceptive imagery and damning omissions.” (Ibid) It was a LIE.

As Trump’s mockery of American justice was reaching large proportions, there was adulation and adoration of those who had attacked the Capitol. Instead of “marauders, vandals, and aggressors, they were now hostages, martyrs, and patriots.” (Ibid). Trump then began to call these people “political prisoners.” (Ibid).

Rooted in Lenin-Marxist thought, the use of disinformation, propaganda, and brainwashing was first seen in the Russian 1917 Revolution. It was a rhetorical vehicle for spreading false ideas and thoughts. The Chinese began to use propaganda as demonstrated in the 1930 Mao Zedong letter showing his influence on the Chinese people – again, all lies. Then in the 1930s, Hitler (Germany) converted an entire peaceful nation into mass murderers. They slaughtered over six million humans, and about another 15 to 20 million on the battlefields attempting to stop Hitler’s madness. Trump has exhibited to the entire world this exact same “madness.”

History has tracked Putin’s rise to power in Russia directly due to his years working as a Russian KGB spy in East Germany. While there, he learned Hitler’s methodologies and fascism. He returned to Russia to become the Russian “presidential leader” and was voted into office after the horrific bombing of several Russian apartment houses where hundreds of Russians died. The public was told that this was the Chechnya’s rebels, but it was not. It was a ploy to gain public sympathy for Putin’s stand against Chechnya before the Russian election, just like Trump’s “supposed” assignation attempt that grazed his ear. For a man who loves himself as much as Trump, he was amazingly calm. Could this just be an act to gain sympathy? The following shows this mania progression from Hitler to Putin to Trump.

GERMANY

- Hitler was released from prison in 1933.

- He practiced brainwashing techniques on German public, convinced them to vote for him, and soon the public became violent and brainwashed. Germany citizens became violent and murderous - families and neighbors fought against each other. Germany slaughtered over 6,000 humans, and it took another 15 to 25 thousand who died at war to stop Hitler's madness.

- Putin spent 15 years in East Germany working as a Russian spy. He learned brainwashing techniques, and perfected bribery using drugs, pornography, women/sex, and money while in Germany.

RUSSIA

History: In 1956, Russia’s First Secretary Khrushchev stated in a speech: “We will buy you.” This was directed at the United States. In 1991, the Soviet Union dissolved, and Yeltsin assumed power of Russia. Americans falsely believed that the Cold War era was over, and the West had won.

- Putin returned to Russia from Germany, to eventually become a dictator labeled as the second President. He headed up the newly formed FSB which controlled all Russian finance/banks and international relations. He used his spying skills to entrap foreigners to work for Russia – probably including Donald Trump. Trump began going to Russia in 1987 and made many trips. (This author was in Moscow during Trump's visits).

- Putin wants the USA out of NATO and USA troops out of Germany. The world military power then tilts in favor of Russia.

- Putin blames the USA for the downfall of the Soviet Union. He promised retribution, vengeance, and revenge.

USA

- Trump’s speeches are full of hatred and lies repeated over and over which are brainwashing techniques used by Hitler and by Putin. Millions of Americans believe Trump’s hateful lies and conspiracy stories. In 2020, violence in the U.S. increased by 30% with 7,700 hate crimes (FBI Records). This is more violence than any time in U.S. history and is comparable to the German internal strife before WWII.

- Trump negates NATO and threatens to withdraw. He pulls USA troops out of Germany and other locations. NATO allies are cautious about partnering with the USA. This is called “isolationism.” NATO partners no longer trust the USA and Trump.

- Trump threatens invasion of foreign nations and even says he may use force. He makes threats against other political figures like the January 6^th Committee and mentions arrests and prison time. This is comparable to Putin who invaded Ukraine and imprisons or murders his opponents like Alexei Navalny.

Trump began to travel to Russia in 1987. In the 1990’s he attended the grand opening of the Beverly Hills – a nightclub, casino, and restaurant that was half owned by Chuck Norris and the other half by Mayor Luzhkov of Moscow. This place was known in Russia for its corruption, its naked women, and its famous faces – especially from the U.S. Unbeknown to Donald Trump, my daughter Lize managed this joint venture. His behavior at this nightclub demonstrated that he was the subject of typical Russian KGB/FSB enlistment and entrapment. I had seen it many times and experienced it myself.

Russians use flattery, money, and women/sex to trap foreigners to work for Russia. They have this process perfected. Every single hotel room in Russia where a foreigner stays – without exception – has cameras and listening devices. Everywhere a foreigner goes, he is often followed, photographed, and listened to. And every Friday, these photos and reports are submitted to the KGB/FSB headquarters for review and to find compromising material. Trump was no exception.

In 1997, a book called The Foundations of Geopolitics was published in Russia. It outlines Putin’s presidential plans and goals, which includes the recruitment of Americans to work for Russia. It also includes the destruction of the United States from within. Putin believes that the U.S. caused the downfall of the Soviet Union which he says was the greatest catastrophe of the last century. He pledged retaliation, revenge, and “tit for tat.” Watch how he manipulates Trump into benefiting Russia and fulfilling Putin’s wishes.

In his famous 1956 speech, First Secretary Nikita Khrushchev, leader of the USSR, said “History is on our side. We will bury you.” (CIA.gov) At that time, Putin was an impressionable young boy whose wish was to become a KGB agent and “make Khrushchev proud of him.”

Project 2025 in the U.S., The Foundations of Geopolitics in Russia, and the book called Mein Kampf written by Hitler in Germany 100 years ago are all interchangeable - they impose the will of one man over the will of the people. They initiate dictatorship over democracy.

This January 6^th, it is hard to believe in our democracy when our country just elected a President who has politically betrayed our Constitution – the January 6^th insurrection was defined in the Constitution as treason. Now Trump talks about re-writing the Constitution and he is attempting to imprison Liz Cheney and others who sat on the January 6th Committee to investigate his crimes. This is no different than Putin imprisoning Alexei Navalny in Russia - who eventually was murdered while in prison. And although his poisoning, imprisonment, and murder may eliminate the human being - Navalny's legend and the truth continues. All dictators are consummate liars; however, their web of lies cannot withstand the light of truth.

In June 2022, TIME 100 published a special edition about the “most influential” persons of the year. Alexei Navalny was asked to write a description of Vladimir Putin. He began his narrative by saying “Perhaps Vladimir Putin’s true mission is to teach lessons. To everyone – from world leaders to pundits to ordinary people. He has been especially good at this in 2022. He reminded us once again that a path that begins with ‘just a little election rigging’ always ends with a dictatorship.”

When I read this statement by Alexei Navalny referring to Putin, all I could think about was President Trump’s phone call (which was taped) to Brad Raffensperger, the Secretary of State for Georgia pressuring him to “just find about 11,780 votes” to overturn the 2020 presidential election. The Georgia election “racketeering prosecution trail is now in question after the State Court of Appeals canceled oral arguments in the case. Trump’s actions investigated by the January 6th Committee including “election rigging.”

“Donald Trump has been crying “wolf” by declaring America’s legal system is a “witch-hunt” against him. Anyone with a modicum of intelligence would realize the hypocrisy of Trump’s current ploy if they knew he never once declared ‘witch hunt’ in the 60 lawsuits he filed and LOST while contesting the 2020 election. Trump-appointed judges were among the 60-plus magistrates who dismissed his election fraud lawsuits.” (NBC Newsline, Steve Corbin, January 3,2024) This still did not prevent Trump from referring to his big lie that “the 2020 election was stolen.” And every time he repeats this lie, someone out there in the American voting public will believe him.

IT IS CALLED BRAINWASHING!
