Russian hacking into the DNC servers wasn't a crime, news to me.

even if they found collusion it would only lead to the Trump campaign, not Trump himself, they would fall on the sword, nobody's getting Trump, just call him Mr. President and move on.

Seriously, if your argument is that because there is no specific crime against colluding with a foreign government to influence our election that its A-OK, you are missing all the crimes committed in order to cover up that information.

Failure to declare income in kind for assistance from Russia in your campaign could be another one.

Oh, and all the overseas murders that Russia did to cover up things too. Dunno if there is any specific laws about that since they occur ed in other countries.

Seriously though....your argument is now "Yeah Russia colluded to influence our election, but thats just fine" is a bit perturbing.
Guess we might have to look at HRC's campaign financing as well.

"There was no contact!"

...

"Okay, there was contact, but there was no collusion!"

...

"Okay, there was collusion, but it's not a crime!"


I'm starting to wonder where this train of logic goes next.

Nice try. As for "they would have found it already", as an ex cop, you should realize, more than anyone, that investigations take time and what you have today may totally change tomorrow, with new information. This has all just begun, so it is too soon for any of us to predict either way what will happen.

But if Trump is already lining up private legal help, he is sweating bullets. If he were innocent, he would have nothing to fear. This one is going to end very strangely, with more twists and turns than an episode of The Apprentice.

Anyone that has any sense at all retains a lawyer for any kind of legal proceeding. You can bet your arse that the Dumplings have lawyered up as well.

Ken Starr ran a four year long investigation into Bill Clinton and found evidence of a blow job. The Russian collusion investigation is hardly a hunt so far, much less a witch hunt.

Not to mention that many times witch hunts turn up actual witches
