Let the investigations run their course.

Then we'll know.
Obviously none of us are sure if he did. But he is sure trying hard to make sure that we continue to not be sure if he did.

Exactly, he keeps smiling and keeping all wondering. This is his need for attention. But maybe not a political problem but an economical one. He owes them up the yang yang, and did some dirty deals. I am not sure he took part in messing with the elections w Russia, but his hands are in the puddin

Why does he continue to throw monkey wrenches into the investigations, then?

He is obviously getting scared, since the investigators are calling for his financial records, now.

Mr. 'Nothing to Hide' has something to hide!

Trump is too stupid to be involved in collusion. It went on, if it did, without his personal knowledge. Trump is much more likely to get busted on illegal business dealings with Russia and conflict of interest than collusion on the election.

Perhaps Trump was just their useful idiot. Wouln't surprise me.

OTOH - there is nothing Trump wouldn't do to win. A little russian involvement wouldn't have bothered him one whit as long as it was helpful to his campaign.

He has no morals, scruples or principles.
I agree that this should be invested but Hillary and Podesta ties should be investigated too.

Oops: The New York Times Accidentally Exposed 'The Hillary Clinton-Russia Nexus'! | Stock News & Stock Market Analysis - IBD


The Clinton Foundation took money from Russian officials and oligarchs, including Victor Kekselberg, a Putin confidant. The Foundation also received millions of dollars from Uranium One, which was sold to the Russian government in 2010, giving Russia control of 20% of the uranium deposits in the U.S. — the sale required approval from Hillary Clinton's State Department.

What's more, at least some of these donations weren't disclosed. "Ian Telfer, the head of the Russian government's uranium company, Uranium One, made four foreign donations totaling $2.35 million to the Clinton Foundation. Those contributions were not publicly disclosed by the Clintons, despite an agreement Mrs. Clinton had struck with the Obama White House to publicly identify all such donors," the Times has reported.

I don't know if he did or not. He seems like a bit too much of a dimwit to do something that clever.

The both have a personal vendetta against Trump because of things he said about them during the campaign. Its hard to take them seriously at all.

The problem is people do take them serious . And some corners they are seen as the grown ups in the Republican Party. And they're rallying people around their cause. They're probably one of the biggest reasons why this issue is still on the front burner. Republicans either need to back these two guys or completely shut them down. It's time to decide where you guys are out on This issue.
