It sure looks like there was collusion between the Trump operation and Russia

[adrina]

Gotcha.. I was right on target then..

You're getting the hang of it.

 

[Wats_butthole]

Yeah I meant BB, which is what I thought you were referring too..I guess I shouldn't assume you dont have him on ignore..

EDIT: Of course, you could probably still apply my analogy to your RWCJ posts.. I didn't trademark it or anything so feel free to take it. its my gift.

Iggy is your friend when it comes to rabid repuglicans dipshit like him.

Papadopolous took a plea deal and rolled on his bosses.

I hadn't realized until I read an analysis in the Washington Post this morning how absolutely critical Papadopolous' guilty plea was. It proved via court testimony that a crime was in fact committed, and as such makes it political suicide for Trumpt to fire special prosecutor Mueller now.

The other big "tell" is that Mueller is prosecuting criminal charges of concealment of foreign contacts and money. This is normally a civil infraction, there are only four cases in history of the criminal sanctions being persued. For Mueller to be pursuing criminal charges against Manafort indicates to me that he has some absolutely rock solid evidence against the guy.

Legal scholars in non-Breitbart publications say Manafort is looking at serious prison time if convicted, and that his only way out is to squeal on someone higher up the food chain and beg for mercy from the court.

It's not looking good for Donald J. Trump today.

Where's the contradiction?

Dems stand up to Putin and hate his guts; ergo, they don't want him running our country.

I love how (D)'s are all bent when suddenly, after fucking Putin over repeatedly, he backs the other side, like it's some kind of travesty and violation of our national sanctity and sovereignty!!!

 

[Carnal_Flower]

Not exactly.

We have a Guilty Plea already. Which means: the assertions in the Papadapouous charges are now established FACT. Not bullshit, sorry.

Its all bullshit till it goes to court

That's assuming that Trump is at the top of the chain of command on any of this, and I'm pretty sure Trump is just a means to an end for the people doing the actual dirt. Trump is an idiot, and easily fooled. I don't think Trump is the target of this probe.

Certainly the Papadopolous plea deal is the most serious development in the Trump/Russia investigation so far. But it is the ONLY admission of criminal activity so far, and the ONLY criminal activity admitted is making false statements to the FBI. It remains to be seen if those false statements were made to knowingly conceal a second crime. And even if that is the case, it might only mean more trouble for Papadopolous. Again, crimes are committed by individuals, and past Washington scandals are littered with the corpses of underlings attempting to "serve" or curry favor with their superiors "unbeknownst" to them.

Having said all that, if there is one President other than Richard Nixon arrogant and dumb enough to implicate himself as a criminal conspirator, it would be Donald Trump.

More to come. Maybe.

I am leaning in the same direction.

that said the best thing it I have 100% confidence that Mueller is going to get to the truth of the matter and indict those that should have to stand before a judge and jury and answer.

Seeing Trump sworn in under penalty of perjury to offer testimony would be a most welcome event.

 

[zipman]

OMG, the Grassley video on him dodging questions is the most cowardly thing I've ever seen.

Bwahahaha.

 

[Libsam]

Yes, we definitely need to explore the Trump/Russian collusion to find out who is behind all these fake news false flags.

[Libsam]

Yet here we are again, with the armchair politicians and diplomats that are so sure of what they think they know that we get to have another nothingburger scandal dredged up into the public discourse.

 

[adrina]

Yup. Sure thing. How many times was Benghazi investigated? At this point the republicans have zero credibility when it comes to their "investigations". They use the government to perform witch hunts to hurt their political enemies.

Period.

 

[OldJourno]

I recently read the Russians spent a whopping $100,000 on social media advertising prior to the election.
That's a daunting figure.
Unless you remember Hillary spent $30 million in one month on social media advertising.

 

[adrina]

B-b-b-but Clinton!

 

[about_average]

In June 2016, Donald Trump Jr., Jared Kushner, and Paul Manafort met with a Russian operative who promised them dirt on Clinton.

A key point in this was that going in to the meeting they thought it was with a Russian government operative, not just a "Russian operative".

"Russian operative" makes it appear less than it was.

 

[GiaCat]

Russia proved Hillary is a crook. They did us a great service exposing her. She did things others go to jail for.

Obviously Russian propaganda works and Clinton propaganda doesn't. It's not fair.

 

[adrina]

Yes because Russia has our best interests at heart.

Idiot.

 

[Wats_butthole]

They proved it? Really? Then it should be easy to lock her up, republicans are holding all the cards yet they are doing nothing? Why do you think that is? Could you be a brainwashed dumbass who believes trumps tweets?

*shakes magic 8 ball*

"All signs point to yes"

That's because Gups are all Russian dupes, of course. There's a reason they're in RED states.

Russia has had decades of practice on its own people.

And more came. Sessions admitted he lied under oath during his confirmation.
Of course, he's claiming he just "forgot" that he shot down the idea of Trump meeting with Putin, which Papadopolous proposed after meeting with someone tied to the Russian government.

I mean, who would remember he was in a meeting where it's suggested a nominee meet with Putin? Easy thing to forget.
