What stands out here is the comment that the Russian contingent of Trump’s presidential run and his “current grifter/conman operation” is bigger than we understand. I wonder to, if Mueller knew or at least found out how big the Russian operation is. Other questions I would have asked is if the Russians are going to or are already backing Ivanka and Jared to be the next power brokers on behalf of Russia; same question about the Saudi’s and Jared/Ivanka.

This was a great article, Greg, it confirmed information I’ve known, for a long time or have forgotten, as the massive influx of info comes at us daily, certainly the info about Trump’s mental capacity, which I believe he plays up when he doesn’t like the subject or questions being asked. The “fake news” moniker only goes so far, especially now when the scientists are rebuking most of Trump’s more stupid comments or suggestions

Could Ivanka be tacitly allowing it to boost her brand? Don't doubt Casler's integrity and honorable intentions but suspicious of why Team Trump allows. That it's all true is too simple for an acknowledged con. "There are wheels within wheels in this village, and fires within fires!" as Arthur Miller once noted...

I’m with you but more so with the George Conway & Kelly Ann Conway duo. That is a truly strange set up right there.

I've followed her for years since before she was "Conway" & you're right; that marriage doesn't compute. Not believing that they're Mary Matalin & James Carville redux...

I don't know enough about it yet to write about it, but what I do know is upsetting.

Trust you to dig out the truth, though I don't envy you sifting through the mud...

Since following Noel on Twitter for the last 8 months or so...I believe his courageous acts of telling the truth may be having more of an impact on the consciousness on the American people..than all the Mueller reports or indictments or arrests have had. He is doing spiritual work IMO..and that comes in many forms.

Greg- you conduct the best interviews ❤️

To me your piece read like there was a lot more to this interview that didn’t get written up. I hope there will be a part 2

I've been so eager to read more about what Mr. Casler has to say at greater length so many thanks. Every word rings true. Again, many thanks.

There is a short documentary series on Netflix about Trump. In one of the episodes, they speak to two guys who worked as producers on The Apprentice. They said that their impression, going into the project, was that they were going to produce a campy show that highlighted Trump's ridiculously narcissistic nature. To their horror, people started to believe that the persona they saw on TV was a genuine portrayal of a successful business genius, and Burnett steered the show in that direction. These two producers are embarrassed that they had anything to do with creating that false narrative.

Greg, this is ghastly. Give it to MSNBC.

GO: The drugs are obviously a much bigger deal. Anyone who’s watched him during the last three years—and especially during the pandemic pressers—can see that there are times when his affect is radically different. The press will describe him sometimes as “subdued.” Can you detail what you’ve seen?

NC: He snorts Adderall as his maintenance high. When he gets too wired, this is tempered with benzodiazepines. There’s also a robust use of cocaine and methamphetamine in the Trump orbit, and I’ll leave it at that….NYC is also full of folks with anecdotes of Trump’s drug use. They come up to me and share stories all the time. Look into the Dr. Bornstein stuff if you want to know more, and ask yourself why Trump sent [his bodyguard] Keith Schiller to strong-arm the doctor and steal his medical records, shortly after being elected POTUS.
