Soviet Assets In The White House

Armand Hammer was a known Soviet asset and Al Gore's father worked for him at Occidental Petroleum after vigorously defending him on the Senate floor from charges of espionage. Al Gore Jr. personally profited from his father's relationship with Armand Hammer.
Sen. Ted Kennedy approached Yuri Andropov with a proposed deal to help the Russians deal with Ronald Reagan if they would help the Democrat party in its campaign against Reagan.
While a student in England Bill Clinton took a trip to the Soviet Union and later, as president, allowed a massive missile technology transfer to communist China.
The idea that there have been Russian assets in the Whitehouse is not so crazy but maybe we should not put Trump at the top of that list.
