There was no way that Pence didn't know. If Trump goes down, so does Pence. Hell, I'm wondering how far into the Republican side things go.

He was not undermining a current president when he made that statement.

If this is no big deal, was everyone in the administration lying about the contacts with the Russians?


Not only that, there is nothing illegal with talking with the russians. That was established a million times over.

The question is...was there collusion with the russians to undermine our US elections.

Mueller is too smart to base his entire case on Flynn's testimony alone. You can bet he has plenty more, and I would say that Flynn is merely the final nail.

I love to learn, but I can't give the ratings points to a drug addict. I can't be held responsible for any level of his success that may take him off the wagon.

Well, let's give the President the benefit of the doubt.

Perhaps he is just a horrible judge of the people he hires to surround him.

False equivalency. When Obama promised more flexibility, that was within the context of normal diplomatic negotiations. There was no quid pro quo. Obama had no personal stake in the outcome.

It is alleged Trump conspired with the Russians to hack computers, distribute stolen e-mails, disrupt an election. There may have been a conspiracy to lift the sanctions in exchange for cash or relieving Trump's debt to Russian oligarchs.

Obama was doing his job. Trump may be guilty of a crime.
