I've just now finished watching the series. It was simply beautiful and affected me deeply. I never knew about the book. I even hesitated watching it; I'm so sick of Russia. But in the end, I had to see Ewan McGregor. He's one of my favorite actors. Thank you to all who brought me this story. It was a gift.

@@sergeant_salty Donald Trump Jr., has appeared to confirm, saying in 2008-after the Trump Organization was prospering again-that “Russians make up a pretty disproportionate cross-section of a lot of our assets.” Trump’s former longtime architect, Alan Lapidus, echoed this view. Lapidus said that based on what he knew from the internal workings of the organization, in the aftermath of Trump’s earlier financial troubles “he could not get anybody in the United States to lend him anything. It was all coming out of Russia. His involvement with Russia was deeper than he’s acknowledged.” Trump's favorite lender, Deutsche Bank has worked closely with Russian state institutions, and in 2015 the bank’s Russian arm was implicated in a $10 billion Russian money-laundering scheme. A 2017 report by Reuters, citing public documents, interviews and corporate records, also found that at least 63 Russians or people with Russian addresses bought nearly $100 million worth of property in seven Trump-branded Florida luxury buildings. Let me know if I should go on.
