Since you asked.....


I. Lift Russian Sanctions

One of the first things Trump did when he was sworn in Office was try to lift the Russian Sanctions.
In fact the very day after being sworn into office! Russia had been wanting this more than anything.
(Thank God for Congressional intercessions)

II. Break up the NATO Alliance

Russia has long wanted to break up our NATO Alliance. Trump went on the offense against NATO...our friends through thick and thin.

III. Divide America and Spread Discord


One of the main objectives that the Russians were aiming for when they started waging their Cyber War on Social Media, was to bring about division in America, and sow discord and hatred. (One has to admit that they have certainly succeeded to some extent here.) Usually after an election, the American President newly elected will try to give speeches and do things that will bring the country back together again...Trump is doing his best to divide and destroy America as we know it.

Yes Putin has something on Trump. And Trump is a threat to America.
You have to be a card carrying member of the Cult to not see something here.

Face facts, Steele allowed his own "noble cause corruption" to ruin his reputation.
Bingo!

Just admit that bumbling Inspector Clouseau, aka Steele, got rickrolled by the Russians.

You keep using that word, and using it incorrectly.

Nope. It was collusion. Just ask Bruce Ohr, currently singing like a lark, and his GPS Fusion employee wife.

That involves clicking a link, it's a specific prank and does not apply the 20 times you posted it.

Only rubes fall for the right wing spin and refuse to read about the facts. The Hill: Uranium One deal led to some exports to Europe, memos show. It's an interesting read and might broaden your horizons if you're interested in coming out of your right wing bubble. But hey, old conspiracy theories are way more important then what's really going on in the here and now aren't they?

At first, yes. Now it's just generalized to a prank that makes someone think they're getting one thing but they get another. Steele is a stooge.

Steele's dossier was backed by senior intelligence officers and diplomats to Mscow such as Sir Richard Dearlove and Sir Andrew Wood, and it's based on intelligence supplied to him by trusted Russian sources he has built up over decades. So to call Steele a stooge is nonsense, and is dossier was from very reliable sources than Steele has trusted for decades.

"In May 2018, former career intelligence officer James Clapper stated that "more and more" of the dossier had been validated over time. Overall, while some allegations in the dossier have been incrementally corroborated, others remain unverified, but none have been disproven. Some may require access to classified information for verification. As late as September 2018, Trump continued to falsely assert that nothing in the dossier had been verified."

This is why Trump wants to deny security clearance to former top intelligence officers such as Brennan, Clapper, Hayden, Rice, Comey, McCabe etc, why he sacked Comey and why Trump and his administration continually try to discredit people including Mueller and even Steele.

As for Trump, it's not looking good with Cohen pleading guilty and Mannafort havng been found guilty on eight counts of fraud and thereby joining other former Trump Administration staff such as Flynn, Gates and Papadopoulos in either pleading or being found guilty. Although there are other cases in the pipeline and Stone believes he will be prosecuted, and I am sure there are others in the Trump Administration.

Whilst Mueller has secured numerous people who are close to Trump who can testify, key among them being David Pecker who nows all about Trump's business interest and has a safe full of material and Trump's lawyer Michael Cohen but there are numerous, and then you have the defamation lawsuits being brought by Summer Zervos and Stormy Daniels, and the recent allegations made by Omarosa.

Trump is even talking about his own impeachment and now suggesting that collusion is not illegal.
