14:52Now PlayingBack in the 1980s, a young Donald Trump received a personal invitation from Soviet Ambassador Yuri Dubinin to visit Moscow — an invitation that, according to Dubinin's own memoir began with flattery about Trump Tower. Trump took the trip, stayed at a KGB-monitored Intourist hotel with his Russian-speaking wife Ivana, and came home to suddenly begin taking out full-page newspaper ads criticizing NATO and America's foreign policy — a total reversal that struck observers as strange even at the time.
Guest Julie Roginsky, of Salty Politics, digs into decades of allegations from former Soviet and Russian intelligence officers that this trip marked the beginning of a long-running cultivation effort. To be clear: no evidence has ever conclusively proven Trump was recruited as a Russian asset, and this remains a contested, unproven theory. But the documented facts — the invitation, the flattery, the sudden ideological shift — are real. Roginsky and hosts Cliff Schecter and Joe Walsh raise some real questions on Tequila Talk.
