I'm not an attorney and it's not for me to determine or say. Those who are tasked with the responsibility and legal knowledge are writing memos and legal briefs to address those issues and what is or is not a crime.

The Derangement & Double Standards has to be seen to be believed.

The willful ignorance has to be seen to be believed.

Let's replace Trump's entry on your list with the most cut & dry issue: Trump has secret interactions with Kremlin operatives to arrange the exchange of compromising material on the opposition candidate. Then creates an official cover story that's proven to be a lie.

Yeah... That sounds like a meeting that was done in an official capacity.

Actually, this involves private citizens at least when it directly mentions the campaign. Most of those accusations are from the campaign and still involve private citizens like some of his children who have no official roles in the government.

Now, as for the government officials, if you know of any laws they broke interacting with Russian officials, that's fine, but in reality this thread is mostly just xenophobic nonsense.

Apparently, these warnings were ignored.

Or else they were already aware and fine with it.
No they weren't. They were setting them up.

Ding ding ding. The very SECOND your campaign team is contacted by Russians, you IMMEDIATELY should call the FBI.

Why didn't any of Trump's people do that? Trump supporters, any comment on that?

I would expect that any campaign should contact the FBI when a foreign adversary offers them assistance to win an election. We heard from just around every member of the Trump campaign that they had absolutely no contact with the Russians and now we know differently. Flynn should be able to offer some more insight today but Trump supporters will dismiss it.

Some offered to help his campaign and his real estate business. Some offered dirt on his Democratic opponent. Repeatedly, Russian nationals suggested Trump should hold a peacemaking sit-down with Vladimir Putin — and offered to broker such a summit.

I think the TRAITOROUS/FASCIST Trump and all in his circle..... should have their citizenship revoked and all be DEPORTED TO Russia!
If the Russians "interacted" with just one more trump associate, would that have reached the threshold for impeachment?


Did we hear trump send a message to putin saying he'd have more flexibility after the election????


How many Russians interacted with or were contacted by Hillary and Obama ??????


I guess the Russians figured since they entered into a partnership with Obama, they would be welcome during the trump admin.

If the FBI said they knew Russians had infiltrated or were trying to infiltrate the Trump campaign, why keep it a secret?

Why did Loretta Lynch give the female Russian lawyer, who was connected to Fusion GPS, a special visa to have a meeting with Don Jr to talk about adoption? Why did the lawyer meet with Fusion GPS before and after that meeting? Oh wait, they are the ones who set up the scam along with the DNC. Never mind.

Now why don't the FBI or Mueller care about Hillary and the DNC actually courting Russians and foreign agents, paying a lot of money for the fake Russian dossier used to smear Trump and defraud the FISA court?

You uneducated leftists need to read The Russia Hoax by Gregg Garrett or if all the facts and footnotes are too taxing, read SpyGate by Dan Bongino. It's supposed to be easier to understand as it's written like a police report. Then buy a copy for Christmas for your favorite fake news talking head since they evidently know less than you.


Meanwhile Thursday is the big day for the whistle blower and Judge Huber to testify about the Clinton Foundation and Uranium One. You won't hear a peep on Fake News so maybe watch Fox News and be informed.

I seem to remember that they were warned. I also remember Trump was trying to get rid of sanctions. Then Congress forced a bill through which Trump had to sign because they were veto proof. It added sanctions.


Trump is dirty. If he had any brains he would be looking to make a deal which had a get out of jail card.

As i recall Trump was in the process of trying to build a hotel in Russia so, it stands to reason he would be talking with a LOT of Russian officials in order to get permission to do so.


How many Russian's, and WHO WERE they, did hillay have contact with to get the uranium deal?


The clinton's have had MORE contact with Russian's then Trump EVER DID over the years.
