This really is the Roy Cohn playbook - accuse the other side of that which you are guilty of.
They will never believe it.

Consider your source.

The details in the indictment show that the Russian campaign was far more sophisticated and serious than previously known, Watts said. The ways in which the Russians concealed their identities and made their operation look "authentically American" in order to trick Americans into helping them provided evidence of a sophisticated operation with ties to Russian intelligence, he added.

"For all of those who have been asking 'where is the evidence of a crime?'— this is it. This is the criminal conspiracy," said Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.), the senior Democrat on the House Oversight Committee.

"This is what President Trump and his allies have repeatedly called a 'hoax' and 'fake news.' This is what they tried to cover up," Cummings said. "This is what we might never have known if President Trump had been successful in shutting down this investigation."

What liberals want Trump to say is that Russians stole the election from Hillary and gave it to Trump. That's not happening g
I don't recall anything like this with Russian agents posing as Americans on line, nor do I remember them hacking the DNC or RNC committees.


We will never know if they tilted the election enough to make a difference but it would be nice to hear some honesty from a president who claimed this didn't happen.

It's called "collusion". Google it.

Collusion is not a crime. Google it.

What the left wants eveyone to believe though isnthat Russia stole the election from Hillary and gave it to Trump.
The only people pushing that claim are morons trying to project it onto the left.

What should have tiilted the election was Hillary's billion dollar campaign, having the media, Hollywood, and Obama administration on her side



When you expect the election to be given to you on a silver platter it's easy to see why you would cry that it has been stolen from you

"The indictment itself is full of fluff and clearly presents itself as political posturing. The Mueller investigation had to find something, anything; and what they came up with reflects how little substance exists. This is one of those examples where it pays to read the actual indictment; and contrast the facts laid out against the method of salesmanship and parseltongue. It is not a difficult read – even Boris and Natasha could do it.

Example: “unwitting Trump campaign official” is really – A single New York volunteer campaign worker agreed to give some signs to a pro-Trump rally."
We now know that the Russians, Hillary and he FBI all were engaged in illegal activities during the election. The only party that wasn't involved in illegal acts was Trump.

But, hey, if you have proof please contact the FBI. This is illegal and possibly treasonous.
They said a Russian group held a pro-Trump rally in NYC and an anti-Trump rally in NYC on the same day. Sounds like plenty of people heard what they wanted to hear.

It is interesting to see how people use terms like "joke" and "funnier" to attempt to down play suspicion.

Is this in some sort of manual?

Perhaps I need to search for it in another language.
