You know when we'll know Trump is closer to ANOTHER bankruptcy (Trump companies have declared bankruptcy 6 times already), it's all word games, his voters won't care, and it won't effect his ownership of Mar A Lago or his namesake NY properties, defaulting on a loan might, but not another bankruptcy.

If you decided that Russia was an ok place to visit after Putin took control in 2000, and after the 2014 invasion of Crimea, welp, you get what you signed up for. It's like visiting Iran, or North Korea, what did you think was going to happen, did you think everyone else was just a scardey cat, and that "it wouldn't happen to you", lol, not going to worry about you at all.
