We are discussing Trump collusion with Russia to hack the election for 8 months on less solid evidence than I have on who funded that dossier. When you admit the Trump collusion story is wrong let me know.

I see, faced with near daily new evidence, your side, that used to be patriotic, now has the narrative: 'la, la, la, nothing to see here, I can't hear you!' The ends your side will go to defend treason for the sake of tax-cuts for the rich.

Veselnitskaya-McFaulForeignAffairsCommittee06142016-.jpg


I got this picture from a link posted on Drudge.

The woman circled in the picture is Veselnitskaya, the Russian atty Trump Jr. met at Trump Tower. She is sitting directly behind Obama's ambassador to Russia, McFaul, in a hearing with the Foreign Affairs Committee. She is also sitting next to Emin the Russian singer that was mentioned in Trump Jr.'s emails.

This picture was taken just 8 days after her meeting with Trump Jr..

Usually those who sit directly behind someone in a hearing are either close staff members, family members, personal attorneys etc. So why is she sitting behind Ambassador McFaul?

No, there is no daily new evidence. There is daily new unverifiable narratives that fall apart before the end of the day, but no evidence. But let's test your theory... give me seven pieces of actual evidence to come up in the last week.

I don't guess you have read my posts on here over the years then because I am one of the few people on here that calls out my side as well. I vote Republican, particularly in state and local elections, fairly often.

Hell I Mueller had been this gracious with employment in the past, maybe we wouldn't be in as much a state as we are now.

Mueller was not Director during Trump's campaign. He would have gone to Congress and told the leaders, "Trump is doing X and Y and Z" and "I am going to tell the world."

Because Russians tend to sit with other Russians?

Making legal deals with Russia is one thing which is something the Obama administration did. Going through Russian sources to "get dirt" on the most corrupt person in politics is either laughably stupid or illegal. See the difference yet?

And the fact that she works for the Russian Government:

But lawyers and others in Moscow’s legal community called her a trusted insider, one who could be counted on to argue and win important high-profile court cases that matter to the government and to one senior, well-connected official in particular.

But of course this is from anon sources in the New York Times, I don't expect Trumpsters to read it or even understand it.

It's not illegal.
Campaign finance law cannot override the 1st amendment, now if he had planned to commit an actual theft of her (Hillary) information.
That's different but with the given information available, no crime was committed.

Fair point. I'm not sure if a crime has occurred, but experts are looking into it.

But just to be clear, are you saying that this bit of information doesn't bother you in the least? We've literally had Donald Trump and associates for the last year crying fake news for daring to report that Russia supported him or that they had undisclosed meetings. They flat out denied any meetings with any Russians whatsoever for months. Then a meeting is discovered (yet again) and they lie to say that it was about Russian adoptions, then we get the emails saying blatantly "The russian government is supporting your father and they want to meet to give you dirt on Clinton to help you out". They literally lied for months about not having any meetings and then they lied about the purpose of the meeting then and only when the NYT was going to release some emails did they come clean and act like it's no big deal. Why did they lie? And does anyone really believe the Paul Manafort, Jared Kushner and Don Jr. went to a meeting with a Russian lawyer because they were promised dirt on Clinton and no one told Trump? I'm sure we'll fend out that it's yet another lie.

I'm not saying that this is all illegal, but at the same time can you not admit that this is at the very least troubling for the country to have leaders like this?

It was clear that they were seeking this information out. And it's even more clear when he set up the meeting.

Email: I have some dirt on Clinton

Jr Trump: OK when do you want to set it up.

Email: Let's meet here.

That's intention. He may not have known she didn't have anything and that he was just getting trolled but the fact that he took the meeting proves intent to seek out that information.

No one called for prosecution via CFL then.
