(BEGIN TRANSCRIPT)

Mogilevich: Good day, comrade Trump!

Trump: Hi, Semmie. How are you?

Mogilevich: Doing well, comrade. Once again I congratulate you on your efforts to undermine so called democracy in free world…

Trump: Thanks, Semmie. I’m doing everything I can…

Mogilevich: Indeed. We are proud of you, Trumpski. But today I am calling for another, less pleasant reason…

Trump: Oh..?

Mogilevich: Yes. Although we are grateful for your efforts, Mr. President…and we are very grateful…it is now time for you to live up to your end of our “little agreement.” You are now President of United States. As you know, our services do not come cheap, comrade Trump.

Trump: Uh, huh. No, of course not…

Mogilevich: The time of reckoning has arrived. Is now time for you to pay up.

Trump: Okay, Sure, Semmie. Of course (coughs). How much do I owe you? Can I pay cash?

Mogilevich: The bill is 6 Billion dollars. Is great bargain. We expect a wire transfer within 30 days. I know we are above making threats, Donald, so I will simply remind you that we have lived up to our side of bargain. Is now time for you to do same.

Trump: Of course, Mr. Mogilevich, sir. I will take care of this as soon as possible…no problem…thank you, thank you, thank you!!
