I guess your version..might be true...or..it could be that after it became clear that Trump was going to be the candidate..and Cruz was not..that the point became moot..to those who initially started the dirt digging. They dropped it..and it looked like found money..to the Clinton camp.


Believe what you will..but the facts are out there--it just seems that they are irrelevant..to most of the fringe loonies.
Elections are like a civil war but it is American tradition that when one party loses it is tradition that they evaluate what when wrong, make changes and look to the next election. Not for the 2016 election, instead they freaked, and went on a witch hunt (how dare their choice be challenged).

We were told Hillary was sure to win, but you know very well that Hillary was a terrible candidate, so why so confident she'd win? The left used the IRS in the 2012 election and the race card to silence people. You put your fingers in your ears so instead we spoke with our vote. Of course if you refused to listen to opposition you wouldn't see a loss coming, did you expect people to comply like dictators do?

After what the DNC did to Bernie Sanders, and in previous year using the IRS and spying on American citizens, it makes me questions the confidence Democrats were about Hillary winning and why I don't think it's above Democrats use the FBI to go after a political opponent.

Are you so naive enough to believe it could never happen in the U.S.? Are you so naive that you trust powerful people?

You mean like Trump trying to take control of the FBI so he can block their investigation and make them investigate his political opponents?

I'm just guessing here...but I think..that the Democrat's confidence in winning was rooted in their total unwillingness to take Donald Trump seriously as a candidate. They were not alone...it was inconceivable to many..that we would elect such an apparent buffoon to lead us.


We were all wrong...and I don't blame the Russians for a minute. Trump's election was a perfect storm..the Republican party has already taken steps to ensure that it never happens again.


The Russians just want/wanted chaos--and they got it is spades.

But, but the New York Times & the Washington Post said the informant was put into the Trump campaign to help & protect him, lol, for reals Once the FBI/DOJ moved from denial to justification the game was/is over. For 18 months all we heard was that there was no surveillance on Trump to, well, yes there was, but it was to help him.

Exactly, and I've been saying that the Russians just wanted chaos all along. Of course Putin is paying attention and he has to be laughing his ass off at the way liberals and Democrats are acting.
