In Navalny's last letters, the Russian dissident called Trump's agenda for a second term 'really scary'

Alexey Navalny, the dissident and political nemesis of Russian President Vladimir Putin, spent the last few years of his life behind bars but still managed to stay connected to the outside world.

Letters from the final months of his life, obtained by The New York Times, showed Navalny, who had been imprisoned since January 2021, managed to stay on top of current events — including in the US.

In a letter sent to a friend, photographer Evgeny Feldman, Navalny called former President Donald Trump's agenda for a second term "really scary," according to the Times.

If President Joe Biden has a health issue, "Trump will become president," Navalny continued, adding, "Doesn't this obvious thing concern the Democrats?"

In another letter to Feldman dated December 3, Navalny again expressed concern over Trump and asked his friend, "Please name one current politician you admire."

Trump's office did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Business Insider.

And Putin said he prefers that Biden wins a 2nd term, of course that’s not mentioned.

Those letters were probably fabrications by the anti-Trump CIA.

Sounds like he wasn’t an “opposition leader” after all, but rather, an agent of influence.

Somehow the gaslight media manages to make everything about Trump.

I vaguely remember when Trump was president he warned Putin in one of his meetings not to harm Navalny. Am I remembering this right ? There is no way Navalny would have been whacked if Trump were president.

Same ultimate owner as Politico. Apparently some socialist Germans have a lot of influence with the rats.

Not a credible report. Gotta look at the source. Navalny is riding a wave of sympathy and very likely the Left are using it to score a hit against Trump.
