update to add PAGE 51:
possesses Sater wrote, Buddy our boy can become President of the USA and we can engineer
it. I will get all of Putins team to buy in on this.166 When the deal slowed in early 2016, Cohen
took matters into his own hands, attempting on January 14, 2016 to contact Kremlin spokesman
Dmitry Peskov via email to move the project forward. However, like so many others, the deal
did not materialize.
The Majority, however, addresses few of Trumps attempted Moscow business deals,
questionable funding sources, and ongoing business relationships with Russian oligarchs close to
President Putin. Instead, it offers a perfunctory reference to the 2013 Miss Universe Pageant,
claiming simply that the Committee found no evidence that President Trumps pre-campaign
business dealings formed the basis for collusion during the campaign.167
As with so many of the Majoritys findings, the Majority did not uncover evidence because it
refused look for any. The Majority expended little effort in investigating whether Trumps
business deals may have been part of Moscows effort to entangle business and political leaders
in corrupt activity, and they actively blocked Minority requests to follow this thread. The
Majority rejected numerous appeals by the Minority to request or subpoena Trump financial
records from Deutsche Bank, interview pertinent witnesses from the financial entity, and seek
testimony or production from other individuals and entities with knowledge of Trumps business
projects in Moscow. The question of whether Trumps financial vulnerability, reliance on lenders
of last resort with illicit ties to Russia, or decades-long desire to secure a real estate deal in
Moscow led Russia to hold of leverage against him remains an unexplored but critical
investigatory question.
