A Trump associate boasted in 2015 that a deal to build a Trump Tower in Moscow "will get Donald elected"

A business associate of President Trump promised in 2015 to engineer a real estate deal with the aid of the president of Russia, Vladimir V. Putin, that he said would help Mr. Trump win the presidency.

The business associate, Felix Sater, wrote a series of emails to Mr. Trump’s lawyer, Michael Cohen, in which he boasted about his ties to Mr. Putin and predicted that building a Trump Tower in Moscow would be a political boon to Mr. Trump’s candidacy.

At present, this story doesn't sound like a big deal.

It's a discussion between his company and a guy who grew up in Brooklyn. There are going to be numerous situations of that type.

The issue is whether there are direct connections. This story hasn't got any.

You don't want to push weak issues when there are much stronger ones in play. It makes the case look weaker, not stronger.
