Russian Oligarch Warns Trump to Shape Up or Lose next Election

Artem Klyushin -- he warned Trump to shape up or he will be shipped out

If this story is true, it is bizarre. And scary. Independent confirmation of this has not yet come from any reputable mainstream news source as of 9:50 am PST.

The liberal site Raw Story (fact accuracy rating: MIXED) reports a Tweet by Russian oligarch Artem Klyushin that explicitly threatens president Trump to quash American Russophobia or lose the 2020 election. The Tweet is shown below. He posted it here on Twitter on August 15.



Google translate:
Democrats and Republicans in the United States compete in the one who no longer loves Russia and who will come up with sanctions posesche [crueler sanctions?]. They stuff [make?] political points on [about?] this, and the people of Russia suffer. If @realDonaldTrump does not extinguish the fire of FAKE NEWS inciting Russophobia - this will be his last term.

Other major media sources are not yet mentioning this, so this Tweet could be a hoax or sick joke of some sort. It is hard to imagine a hoax or joke, since the Twitter post seems to be real.

If this is real, it is a blatant, and undeniable public attack on American democracy and freedom of speech. If this is fake news from a Russian enemy or anyone else, this OP will be deleted. There is no upside in adding garbage to an internet already awash in garbage.
