Trump wanted a cut of the profits.
And more info on the blackmail.

Putin blackmail might be a reason why all the billionaires, congress, courts, judges, corporations, etc
have folded like lawn chairs giving Trump and Putin what they want. Were many of them
ensnared in Putin's trap?

Putin is an old KGB agent. He knows how to run this kind of operation.
