 Well, there's no direct evidence for that, but there's certainly a boatload of suggestive evidence that supports that idea. Just as there's no direct evidence of your belief that the two assassination attempts were manufactured, but some suggestive evidence that supports that idea. You can't pick and choose when you want evidence.  
 The only subjective evidences I’m aware of regarding #Trump being a Russian asset is from the RussiaGate narrative which to me was clearly a deep state #psyop. But maybe you’re aware of others. The only assassination attempt on which we have evidence of a staged event is the first one. I don’t believe that the second one would have been a real attempt but I have not researched it (there is probably not much info to collect anyway). For the first one we have objective evidences which will hold until a contradictory demonstration is made.
