Is Trump a Russian Asset? Trump, Putin, and the Foundations of Geopolitics.

Duration: 12:14

What would it look like if a U.S. president were a Russian intelligence asset?

In this video, I apply a counterintelligence framework called Analysis of Competing Hypotheses to compare the strategic prescriptions in Aleksandr Dugin's "Foundations of Geopolitics" — required reading at Russia's military academy — with the observable foreign policy decisions of the Trump administration, including the 2026 Iran war, the lifting of Russian oil sanctions, and Russia's SVR plot to stage a fake assassination of Viktor Orbán before Hungary's April 2026 election.

I examine NATO, alliance fractures, institutional degradation, and the Russian oil revenue windfall — and I lay out the strongest counterarguments. This is not a verdict. It's the thought experiment nobody wants to conduct.
