You guys didn't know that Melania's dad is a Communist with ties to old Soviet Russia?
She was a teenage pageant girl who went to Moscow around the same time as Trump's 1988 visit.

Ivana's dad too!

Ivana’s father, Miloš Zelníček, was monitored by the StB during his 1977 trip to the U.S. for Ivana’s wedding, StB-ordered search of his possessions at the airport. “He provided information that the secret police had already obtained."

Trump came back from Moscow with a message to Reagan.

“The world is laughing at America’s politicians as we protect ships we don’t own, carrying oil we don’t need, destined for allies who won’t help, it’s time for us to end our vast deficits by making Japan and others."

He even did a media blitz after he got back with his new message.

"I mean they've totally taken advantage of the country, I'm talking about the trade deficits! They come and they talk about free trade. They dump the cars and the VCRs and everything else."

Around 1995 Paolo Zampolli was a successful New York entrepreneur when he met Melania Trump, and soon after signing her to his agency, he also allegedly put her to work at his escort service, where she acted as nocturnal entertainment to successful businessmen.

September 1998: Donald and Melania met at a party thrown by Melania's boss Paolo Zampolli.

Slovenian publication "Suzy Magazine" printed a story about her time as an escort and after threatening to sue them for $150 million she settled for a small settlement & public apology.

Still not convinced the Russians colluded with Trump to make sure he became president of the United States? Greg Miller, national security correspondent of the Washington Post, suggests that you consider this:

Maybe "the apprentice" had a deeper meaning.
