Maybe just another "coincidence".
Roman Abramovich docked his yacht, which is estimated to be worth between $400 and $500 million, at the port on Friday afternoon, and is expected to stay until Dec. 5, according to The Palm Beach Post.
Abramovich's arrival comes days before Trump is set to arrive at his Florida resort, dubbed the Winter White House, for the Thanksgiving holiday. There have not been reports or signs that the two are meeting.
Abramovich owns Londons Chelsea Football Club and is the largest shareholder of Russia's second largest steel company. He is reportedly close with the Russian president.

(60,010 posts)His overweening arrogance is helping the good guys get the evidence they need.
Trump is so cock sure of himself, he doesn't bother to hide evidence. He believes all he has to do is lie and everything will be ok.

(1,077 posts)I glanced through the notes above, and concur with each one.
When these guys are in the neighborhood, how is the contact made? If not person to person, then who or how?
I believe someone(s) is(are) watching and/or listening.
I read a thread that someone was upset that more attention was not being paid to REngel (sp). Maybe there is more going on in the background.
Supermax for the low lifes(the current high lifes), in the interest of being politically correct.
