I wonder why little Donnie isn't moving forward with the legislation Congress passed? What could it be?

All kidding aside, given the shear number of these oligarchs Trump has done business with and the power they possess, Trump must wonder every so often what would happen to he and his family if he crossed one or many of them....

After all, we know and it's well documented that many of the murders in Russia are obviously orchestrated by this very rich and powerful group of men, mostly, who are ruthless at protecting themselves and their fortunes.

Trump in a sense is being squeezed on two fronts....I'll give him this, the guy is definitely a cool customer in his own way...

He probably cries behind closed doors, and sh!ts his pants regularly. 😛

Nah, I think he just eats another hamburger and says to himself, "ah fuck it, we all gotta die some time..." 😛

Kind of makes you wonder how Trump has gotten away with not enforcing the sanctions. Obvious why he hasn't, but why hasn't congress intervened?

Both houses of Congress passed the sanctions legislation with overwhelming and VETO proof majorities....But again, most people and evidently Congress, are more concerned with goofball and obviously partisan memos about, well, nothing actually.

I don't seem to see much coverage of this on Faux news.....Only coverage of "memo gate." I wonder how the patriots at Fox News can ignore this affront to the constitution?

Yep. Those numbers tell you all you need to know about Trump's loyalty to America versus himself. He's saving his ass one day at a time with Russia. He can't get off his knees, as Putin stands over him.

Putin and the oligarchs control him literally and figuratively....They really do own his ass and I suspect those of some his children too.

Might they be busy covering up their own acts of corruption and concerning themselves with their futures in case they get caught and called out and have to answer for some of the things they have been involved in?

Nope. If that was the case they wouldn't have voted so overwelming last time. Could be that the Republicans mostly voted on sanctions to separate them from Trump's Russian scandel and they think nobody is looking anymore, but the midterms are coming and this will come up.
