Should a presidential candidate notify the FBI when her (oops, their) campaign hires a foreign operative and pays said foreign agent for "dirt" on an opponent?
It's clear you are all confused.
Steele is a foreign citizen but not a foreign operative.
He was originally hired I think by the Republicans right....they passed and they he approached the Dems.
Is it though? I would hope that paying a foreign operative to influence a presidential election was-but I'm honestly not sure. Lets face it, we interfere with foreign elections all the time.
I'm not sure its illegal either but I know giving an opinion on it in a hypothetical situation isn't a crime.
Wasn't the subject a foreign influence in our elections ? You seem to be adding the opposite element to the subject.
That's fine thought !!!
I don't see any reason to tie our hands behind our back when we can't stop other nations from trying to influencing our elections !!! I personally wouldn't do it. As a rule if its discovered the resentment isn't worth the effort and could lead to other unwanted conflict.
So you're saying you don't care that Hillary did what Trump has said he'd consider doing? Got it. Not a surprise.
I've said time and time again that if anyone does anything criminal and it can be proven, they need to go to jail. Anyone. What most of the right wingers are saying is "But, Hillary..." That's your go to line on anything and everything and,, frankly, it's a bit tired for a defense of your boy Trump. I learned as a kid that even if cousin Billy has done something wrong, that it did not mean I would be able to do it too. Even if Clinton did it, it does not give Trump free reign. That's what you folks either can't grasp or don't care to think about. Your boy admitted he'd so something illegal. Deal with it
Don’t know -Hillary got a 150 million dollar donation from Russia for Clinton foundation -do you think they might have given her some help in her campaign?

Why do you end your statement with a question mark? ... because you want to plant a baseless thought you can not support in the public mind.
What you mean to say is: The Clinton Foundation, a charity, received a donation (how much? ... show us a link). Neither Hillary Clinton nor her campaign received any such money. Any donations went to the hungry and the sick around the world. Here is a link to the Clinton Foundation, still going strong, not shut down for improprieties like some other big name but phony baloney charity.
Neither did she receive unsolicited 'dirt' on her opponents, nor social media propaganda, nor email hacking of her opponents by them (all of which would have been campaign finance violations).
What year was this donation, in who's name? Tell us. I call BS on your unjustified suggestion.
Your post fails, because it is based upon BS and innuendo.

How do you KNOW the person giving the "operational research" material IS a a FOREIGN OPERATIVE?
