Rush confirmed another of my instincts:

Dems have been putting out reports that Dems will win in a landslide over Trump, which defies logic. That way, when they lose they can say, "See!! Trump colluded with ______(foreign government)______ to steal this election, too!"

Perfect set up for Trump to say, "To ensure the security of future elections, voter ID is now a Federal mandate. We don't want foreigners voting in our elections." When Dems object it will look like they want foreign voters.

She PAID because she didn't want the dirty deed traced back to her!

And, no, Trump would never PAY for information he could get for free. He is a well known cheapskate!

By "confirmed", do you mean "said, without a shred of evidence"? if he actually confirmed this, let's see the evidence.

No. It’s anything of a certain value. Information has value.

The Trumpers are not succeeding in trying to normalize what he plainly stated in that interview and it shows in th3 reaction it has gotten so far. It will be interesting to see how they try to deal with it next.

Fine then, let's have another investigation and see how that goes, or not. If he has broken laws, or has committed treason, the military or FBI , not sure who would walk him out in cuffs, should be barging into his office any second now , right ? Why is everyone on the left in a frenzy ? It is only a matter of time , right ?

(C) an expenditure, independent expenditure, or disbursement for an electioneering communication (within the meaning of section 30104(f)(3) of this title)


The amateur candidate, Donald Trump, during the primaries was informed of the above. Later, as the Republican candidate, he was specifically warned of how hostile governments would approach his campaign etc. ( This while attending an additional intelligence briefing, by the former chiefs.) We know he disregarded all of this and mocked them personally and undermined our/their institutions and their individual and combined expertise.

Then after 2 years of his administration's outright deception, obfuscation and continued sabotage of America's norms and shared truths, we obtain a very accurate accounting of what occurred per myriad sources and documents, indictments and under oath testimony. A credible report that he and his staunch and psychologically abused base refuses to read or believe. The Mueller Report.

Part one, of the Mueller Report: a hostile foreign government attacked our 2016 elections for the purpose of getting Donald Trump elected. Part two of the Mueller Report: then-candidate Donald Trump welcomed that help. And part three: when the federal government tried to investigate part one and part two, Donald Trump as president delayed, deflected, moved, fired, and did everything he could to obstruct justice.

Now Donald Trump states, I'd do it again. Here is a question/ poll that should be taken:

What does it mean to have our president say, " I think I'd take it".

1) You just can't fix stupid.
OR
2) He just said, "In your face America, I am above the law and I have no respect for the USA".

They will point out that it was the Democrats that hired foreign agents to make up lies on Trump in order to weaponize the FBI to spy on him. Then the FBI tried to insert Russian agents into the Trump campaign and every effort by the FBI and Russian to infiltrate the Trump campaign failed...however, the Democrats actively engaged foreign agents.
