Trump is an 'Establishment Insider,' Russia's Medvedev Says

Russian official says the anti-Russian Deep State in the U.S. is far more powerful than Trump

Dmitry Medvedev, the deputy chairman of Russia’s national security council, downplayed the chances of improved relations between the U.S. and Moscow if Donald Trump was elected and said despite the billionaire’s bluster, he is nothing more than an “establishment insider.”

Trump addressed the Economic Club of New York last week and was asked about the sanctions that the Biden administration imposed on Russia.

The former president said he wants to employ sanctions “as little as possible.”

THE EVOLUTION OF THE WORD ‘CEASEFIRE’ FOR GAZA

Medvedev took to Telegram to say Trump made the comments out of “spite for the current administration,” Newsweek reported.

“Will he really do it if elected? No, of course not,” Medvedev said. “For all his apparent bravado as an ‘outsider,’ Trump is ultimately an establishment insider. Yes, he is an eccentric narcissist but he is also a pragmatist. As a businessman, Trump understands that sanctions harm the dollar's dominance in the world. However, that's insufficient reason to stage a revolution in the United States and go against the anti-Russian line of the notorious Deep State, which is much stronger than any Trump.”

TREND FORECAST: As we had forecast when the Ukraine War began in February 2022, the sanctions the United States and its allies put on Moscow and the many American and European businesses that closed shop in Russia, would actually benefit the nation since they have possessed the human and natural resources to become self-sustaining and self-sufficient, and their citizens would replace the businesses that left the country.
