Don't forget the 44 billion USD he paid to control one of the world's largest vehicles for dissemination of information, transforming it into a superspreader of disinformation and propaganda.

"He". There are Russians and Saudis behind the funding (to no-one's surprise), the same countries that have bankrolled Trump for decades.

There's no Russian money, and no new Saudi money there.
