Man I'm in a good mood. Look at the benefit of the doubt I'm giving the Left.

Or are you going to defend Idiot Jr and say he didn't need to report this contact to the FBI, or he, a grown man, didn't know any better or find it odd that that Russians were willing to help his father get elected as POTUS?

Right after the phone prank, Adam Schiff ran out to leak the info but was hauled back by his own staff and told to back off it as it was only a joke.

I wish there would have been a reveal at the end, but I guess Schiff would have just scolded them and hung up.
I think they need to pick a less experienced target next time. Maybe a young reporter, they could take that much further.

Adam Schiff spoofed with Russian claim of nude Trump pic | Daily Mail Online

This just gets better and better
Let me get this straight.

Adam Schiff has been the principal accuser of Trump in the Russia Russia Russia matter, insisting that if anyone on Trump's staff had any contact with any Russian person, that was sufficient grounds to declare Probable Cause to investigate the top Guy (Donald Trump himself) for cooperation and even collusion with Russia over the U.S. election. And if he actually got campaign materials from Russian people, then his guilt extended to definitely helping Russia interfering with our election.

So now what do we get?

Adam Schiff gets a call from someone with a Russian accent, who identifies himself as being from Russia, with information from a Russian intelligence agency, and offering pictures of a naked Donald Trump in various compromising positions.

And what does Schiff do? He thanked the person, gets his contact info, and then promises to have someone on his staff meet the guy to pick up the "compromising material".

If Schiff had any doubts that the guy was really a Russian agent, he would have at least ignored the guy after that, and likely called the FBI or CIA to take it from there.

But Schiff never called any U.S. law enforcement agent. Instead, he had a member of his staff quietly call the guy the next day, and make arrangements to pick up the material!

As soon as the scheme was exposed a few days later as the prank it was (they guy wasn't really a Russian agent, and had no materials of any kind), Schiff and his people have been backpedaling like mad, saying "Oh, well, we knew all along it was a faked call, nothing to see here, move along."

Then why didn't you call the CIA or FBI, Adam? And if you knew it was faked, why did you quietly have your staff call the guy back the next day, and arrange to pick up the material he was offering? Without informing American law enforcement what you were doing?

Sorry, Adam. Your story doesn't wash. In fact, you had no problem dealing with a Russian agent yourself, and acquiring campaign materials from him for the purpose of attacking the U.S. President - the very actions that you yourself was proof of everything from collusion to outright treason, when you were trying to portray Trump as doing it?

There's a lot more evidence that Adam Schiff colluded with people he thought were Russians and accepted info to attack the President with, than there has ever been about Trump of his staff doing anything like that.

Adam, you are starting to smell far worse than you ever accused Trump of smelling.
