Summary of Craig Unger's House of Trump, House of Putin - E-book - ePub

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 On November 9, 2016, Trump became president after being targeted by the Russian Mafia and Russian intelligence for nearly four decades. He would leave the country all but defenseless against future attacks. #2 The book will show that President Trump allowed Trump-branded real estate to be used as a vehicle that likely served to launder enormous amounts of money for the Russian Mafia for more than three decades.
It will show that Trump was $4 billion in debt when Russian money came to his rescue and bailed him out, and as a result, he was and remains deeply indebted to them. #3 The Mafia metaphor is a bit much, but what Trump did reminded Comey of a Cosa Nostra induction ceremony, with Trump in the role of the Mafia family boss. #4 Sonny Franzese, a mobster who had immigrated to the United States with his family as a child, oversaw a gasoline-tax-evasion scam that turned into a billion-dollar enterprise.
He was a fearsome enforcer and swam in the biggest ocean.
