but the real problem is in the fact that donald j. jr and the campaign directly and repeatedly lied about meeting with russians when asked.

........and Daddy had to write him a note to explain it! No, really he did!

Yeah, over a year and nothing to show for it.
Hmm. Kind of like the Benghazi investigation. Except nope, that's FIVE years, hours and hours of investigation and millions of dollars. And yet the GOP wants to keep going. Vs. a few months of time for investigations that are actively in process with many witnesses that haven't even been interviewed yet.

But sure, go ahead and put some arbitrary time standard where all investigations have to be concluded. Of course the GOP won't know what to do if they can't keep trying to make Hillary a bogeyman.

It is troubling enough that Trump was involved in putting this misleading statement out. His lawyer then lied in numerous appearances that Trump had nothing to do with it. When the truth eventually starts to be revealed by others, the WH admits that trump "weighed in" on it. It follows a very disturbing pattern where Trump and his allies first mislead and lie, the truth is later reported by the press, and Trump/allies later grudgingly admit in oblique terms the accuracy of the media while spinning whatever the topic is to be rather inconsequential.

I had no meetings with Russia as a campaign representative - Trump Jr (March 2017)

It was a short meeting but we only talked about adoption - Trump Jr (8 July)

I was promised dirt on Clinton but her statements were vague - Trump Jr (9 July)

It was standard opposition research - Trump Jr (10 July)

The president was "not involved in the drafting" of the statement - President Trump's lawyer (16 July)

The president "weighed in" on the statement - White House spokeswoman (1 August)

Hillary ran guns to one side and Americans were killed. She lied and made the bigoted statement that crazy muslims saw a video and rioted. Then she lied during the Congressional hearings when asked about gun running, "I don't know about that, I'll have to get back to you".
How do you like that bogeyman?

and yet it appears you have not a single bit of evidence that Hillary had anything to do with Benghazi!

years and tens of millions of dollars and you have nothing but unsupported accusations. seems to me Hillary is not only innocent but the victim here. An honest upstanding leader attacked by lying betas that fear powerful woman.

Benghazi is a made up r-wing issue in no way relevant to the 20 lies a day told by Trump and this WH. Disgusting, corrupt poor excuse for a human. He has ZERO moral compass. ZERO.

Excellent timeline of lies. The truth was told ONLY after being revealed by the press.
