Russians have funneled money through Trump businesses for years
It could be legitimate, but it seems odd that so many Russians have popped up in this story. Don Jr. called one property Little Moscow because of all the Russians there. The Panamanian Trump resort had issues with owners money laundering. Trump Tower had a Russian illegal gambling ring running from one of its rooms.
He is in bad with a lot of bad actors. Manafort, the head of his presidential campaign, was indicted on accusations of money laundering.
Mueller has brought on experts to his team that deal with money laundering. Michael Cohen was a dealmaker, especially on the international side of things. His office just got raided. If illegal money laundering comes up from a dealmaking lawyer, it could easily lead back to Trump. As of now, it's speculation. If Mueller or other FBI people don't find anything, then my guess is likely wrong. But there is a lot of smoke that appears to be leading in the direction that Trump's properties/operations have been used as fronts for money laundering. Did Trump know? Mueller and the FBI will find out.
