No it’s worse than this. If it were based upon compromising info, Trump would be an UNWILLING participant. He is so invested in the Russian oligarchy money laundering for decades that he is a WILLING participant. He BELIEVES they are on the same team.

And it’s entirely possible Russia has promised to be his plan B if his plans fail.
That is of course also probable.
I’m guessing both.
