McCarthyism revisited
They keep turning over logs and finding snakes. You may remember that Trump's inaugural committee raised twice as much as any in memory, then didn't spend it. People have been asking for a long time where the money went. Now we find that Russians made straw purchases of inaugural tickets through American straw purchasers. Where did the money go? Into Trump's pocket. Tens of millions of dollars, into Trump's pocket.

When a US president takes payoff money from the Russians, what would you call it?

Do people just read the title and make judgments, or do they actually read the article?

From the article referenced in the OP...

Russian intelligence believed it had Donald Trump “over a barrel” during the 2016 presidential campaign.

That’s what lawmakers were told this week by a senior Justice Department lawyer during a private interview.

The official, Bruce Ohr, says he learned that information during a July 2016 breakfast with former British spy Christopher Steele.


So the source that is responsible for Trump being over a barrel, is alreasy a questionable source just based on what we know already. Then it says this...

Steele was attributing the information to a former senior Russian intelligence official. It’s unclear if the official spoke directly to Steele.


Is this really the hard evidence to make the claim Trump was over a barrel? There is no direct evidence here. Steele maybe heard gossip second hand. He may have made it up altogether.

It's laughable that this is even a real news article.

It's gossip.

what about th helsinki "fiasco"????? that doesn't erase the fact that Trump has been tougher on Russia than Obama by far with sanctions and arming Ukraine....telling NATO countries to raise their defense spending up to 4% of their GDP .....telling Germany to get out of the oil deal with Russia and sign with the U.S.




Sanctions imposed over Russia’s invasion of Crimea in 2014 have not been lifted, Trump approved the sale of lethal weapons to Ukraine — something Barack Obama did not do — and he has ordered missiles fired at Syrian military sites, openly targeting strategic operations and allies of Russia.




I would say that's a lot more than what Obama did but keep watching CNN and MSNBC for your news.
