British MP: ‘Trump could be a Russian asset’

Earlier this week, British lawmaker Graham Stuart raised the possibility that the president of the United States, Donald Trump, had been groomed by the Kremlin’s security services over a period of decades.
In a post on X, he said: “We have to consider the possibility that President Trump is a Russian asset. If so, Trump’s acquisition is the crowning achievement of Putin’s FSB career, and Europe is on its own.”
Stuart’s post comes amid seismic geopolitical shifts, as the Trump administration courts Russia, freezes military aid for Ukraine, and sidelines Europe as it attempts to end Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine.
Speaking exclusively to the Kyiv Independent, Stuart explains what prompted him to make such an extraordinary public statement, and what it means both for the future of Ukraine, and the continent as a whole.

Trump is either Russia's greatest asset or its most useful idiot. Take your pick.

[AndyM_YYY]

Judge a man by his actions. He's a Russian asset.

[ptonpc]

Of course he is. Traitor to his country and surrounded by traitors.

It's Wonderful to see someone with enough Balls to State the Obvious.

[alanwatterson]

Thank you sir for having the balls to state the obvious. When will Starmer and EU leaders have the same spine?

[davidhynes]

Trump's appeasing Putin is a disgrace.

[SerendipityNow]

So much respect for this MP for saying out loud what we all can see plainly with our eyes.

Many of us in the USA think it is highly likely donny is a Russian asset, nothing else explains his actions and praise for putler.

[thebowandbullet]

Trump isn't a deal maker, he's a *_deal breaker._*

[davenwheels]

Russia are praising every move he makes. That makes him a Russian asset, regardless of whether he's recruited or rewarded for his actions. He's a traitor, pure and simple.

[timking]

What get's me is that people need to be told this.

[KrasnovTrump]

Rs were talking impeachmt by May '17 bc of his conduct with Rus.

He asked for a list of informants from his staff and got it. Nine months after he left office, the C I A warned that informants were being outed at an accelerated rate.

He first ran for prez the first year he went to Rus.

[mavericknguyen]

He 100% is working for Russia. Agent Krasnov

[BobThompson-yp]

There is silence from other Republicans on this issue.
