    What the almighty fuck.

    The least plausible thing about this is that Putin has been able to keep his mouth shut about it.

      Putin is a master blackmailer, from all accounts. There’s even a specific word in Russian for it, “kompromat”.

      I’m pretty sure he knows how to keep a secret, especially when he’s able to use that secret to destroy US democracy.

      Putin was literally a KGB spy before he went into politics, he knows how to keep a secret or two. He’s an awful human being but he’s not a complete idiot, that’s OUR dictator’s job

        Like that time they met with no translators, or the other time when Trump literally ate the notes from the meeting.

      The Putin part might have been an inside joke if they were aware of some blackmail. Then again, if he’s blackmailing people… he’d have to be quiet about it… and it sure as hell appeared he had some kind of leverage on Trump around his rise to the presidency, we just all assumed it was russian tampering.

        Yeah, but imagine in 2016 claiming that the reason trump bows down to putin is because he has pics of trump sucking clintons dick.

        Do you have any idea how crazy that would sound, even yesterday? In 2016 you’d just have your post deleted for spreading false info.

        Except, it wouldn’t have been false.

          Shit. Can you imagine half the bingo carts we’ve seen since then?

          I mean, you’re in the 80s and 90s and 00s, we were all blabbering on oh this would never fly back then. Yada yada, but since COVID… It just seems there’s been a never ending stream of what the actual fuck.

      Not joining in with the actual reality here, because i struggle telling jokes and plants from truth, so whatever, but :

      If you release your blackmail material, you no longer have any control over the person youre blackmailing.
