Star Member BumRushDaShow (30,048 posts) 9. The reporter just got done calling into Rachel's showDonald Trump was so eager to have Vladimir Putin attend the 2013 Miss Universe pageant in Moscow that he wrote a personal letter to the Russian president inviting him to the event, according to multiple people familiar with the document. At the bottom of the typed letter, Trump scrawled a postscript adding that he looked forward to seeing “beautiful” women during his trip. Trump’s letter to Putin, which was described by people with knowledge of its contents, shows how interested he was in attracting the personal attention of the Russian president. The real estate magnate, who owned the Miss Universe pageant, wrote the note at a time when he was looking to expand his brand to Russia. The letter, the first known attempt at direct outreach by Trump to Putin, has been turned over to investigators probing Russia’s interference in the 2016 campaign. It is unclear whether Trump’s missive was ever delivered to the Russian president — and if so, whether Putin responded. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/in-a-personal-letter-trump-invited-putin-to-the-2013-miss-universe-pageant/2018/03/09/a3404358-23d2-11e8-a589-763893265565_story.html?utm_term=.703180e56b9fThe possibility on how Mueller could have gotten a copy was supposedly because Drumpf tended to have staff generate and send out his correspondence after he signed - but would scan first to email it (vs snail mail) and if that was the case, then the letter may have been an attachment on someone's email.

Agreed, this is neither a bombshell nor a smoking guntRump's an attention whore, of course he would beg a high-ranking official to come to his shitty pageant, to get more publicity. This letter was sent in 2013, so unless it can be proven that trump was running for president back then, he was a private citizen.
Star Member Ilsa (47,554 posts) 8. 2013 letter inviting Putin to Miss Universe pageant in Moscow. Maddow is wondering how Mueller's team got the copy of the letter. Probably was scanned and filed digitally, in which case more people would have copies.
22. Oh, THERE IS MUCH MORE FROM RACHEL!The Prime Minister of Malaysia visiting the White House as he was being investigated for stealing billions, and his ties to the head of finance of the RNC.... https://www.google.com/amp/s/m.huffpost.com/us/entry/us_5a988471e4b0a0ba4ad18d65/amp "Congatulations, American taxpayer! You now own a yacht!" Positively on fire tonight!
The owner/organizer of a significant international event personally writing to invite the leader of the host country to attend?For Trump it would have been moronic not to invite Putin.For Putin it would have been at best a borderline insult not to have been invited.

Not possible. The Dumbshits have no concept of satire, or humor generally. Everytime Limbaugh tries to illustrate leftist absurdity by being absurd, the political leaders of these shitgibbons - stupid SOBs who are supposed to be sufficiently well informed to know better - run around doing their Chicken Little impressions, taking him entirely too seriously.
.....shows how interested he was in attracting the personal attention of the Russian president.
2013?
