Not only does counterterrorism expert Malcolm Nance believe the controversial BuzzFeed report will turn out to be factual, but he believes Donald Trump will likely get busted for ordering dozens of people to lie to cover up his work as a Russian asset.
“This story may not pan out. I believe it will,” Nance told MSNBC. “I believe that there will probably be a dozen situations where Donald Trump ordered people to lie or cover up or hide the fact that he’s doing Russia’s bidding.”

Nance said:
The United States national security is at risk when you’re talking about a person who … is a pathological liar, is easily manipulated, who blurts out our national security secrets in order to brag and impress our enemies. That’s where we’re in trouble. But more importantly, the presidency itself has been compromised. Look, this story may not pan out. I believe it will. I believe that there will probably be a dozen situations where Donald Trump ordered people to lie or cover up or hide the fact that he’s doing Russia’s bidding because he wants to be accepted by Russia and to be oligarch billionaires like their leadership.
There is overwhelming evidence that Trump is a Russian asset
While Donald Trump and his supporters are pouncing on the BuzzFeed controversy – and Mueller’s pushback – as proof (!) that this whole three-year investigation into the president’s Russia ties is a complete hoax, it doesn’t change what we already know.
As Fernand Amandi pointed out on MSNBC on Saturday, there has been consistently compelling and credible reporting that Trump is a Russian asset – and it’s almost never faced any pushback from Mueller’s team.
Trump has covered up his meetings with Vladimir Putin. He has repeatedly suggested the United States should fulfill Russia’s dream of breaking up NATO. He bowed to Putin on the world stage while throwing the U.S. intelligence community under the bus. And, as we now know, the FBI has been investigating Trump for being a Russian agent.
One can believe what they want about the BuzzFeed report, but there is already overwhelming evidence that Trump is a Russian asset and that he’s been repeatedly trying to cover up that crime.
