Well-Worth Reading

This is a very good, and fairly short (most-especially for him) article by Adam Davidson of the New Yorker magazine.  Davidson is a terrific investigative reporter who wrote a particularly great article that I posted here back in March of last year about Trump and money laundering that centered on a Trump hotel that never opened -- and which was basically impossible to even get to -- in Azerbaijan, a story which included ties to Iran's terrorist Revolutionary Guard.

It's an article rich in meticulous details and quotes, including from people inside the Trump organization on how they do business, even providing Davidson with internal documents,  I've referenced the article often and pointed  others to it regularly after it was published, noting how it lays bare what I've long sensed, that the biggest problem I believe Trump has faced since Day One is money laundering with Russia.

In this new analysis, Davidson looks at the issue of kompromat, and why Trump may be so compliant to Putin.  But what I like most about it is that, among the many financial problems that Trump faces, Davidson circles back to that Azerbaijan piece.
