My point is that you are talking out of your hind end.

You have no idea what I, or anyone else, would say about the matter.

Poll is up to 143-32. "Team No" is still getting crushed.

Very refreshing to see how many people still love America.

But, you seem to excuse foreign interference in a US election. There is no excuse, for anyone, as the FEC Commissioner's letter states.

Do you see ANY reason that foreign interference is OK?

No, it's not OK for foreign countries to interfere....Did you care prior to hillary losing?



Now, answer my question, is it OK for someone to pay someone to get dirt from a foregin country or not?



It's a simple question that you seem to be avoiding, why?

I'm pretty sure everyone here would agree that if crime/unlawful action is committed, the person guilty should be charged, D or R.

The question here is that Trump just told out the world that it is okay!!

Stop deflecting and address the question.

Amazing you're so ignorant of Steele.

Use a dictionary and answer these questions:

Is Steele a foreigner?

Did Steele spy?

Did Steele pay Russians for information?

Did Steele receive Hillary money?

But that's ok, becaluse Hillary isntlTrump, right?
Again, so WHAT ?

If proved true, yes, of course she should be indicted.

Now, can you act as an adult and adress the question ? Because here, it's not a question of what if or what about, it happened, proved and true to the world to see.

How can it not bother you?

I guess it does in a way, otherwise you wouldn't act so childishly as to say "it's not me, it's her".

Grow up!

President Donald Trump may not alert the FBI if foreign governments offered damaging information against his 2020 rivals during the upcoming presidential race, he said, despite the deluge of investigations stemming from his campaign's interactions with Russians during the 2016 campaign.

Asked by ABC News Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos in the Oval Office on Wednesday whether his campaign would accept such information from foreigners -- such as China or Russia -- or hand it over the FBI, Trump said, "I think maybe you do both."

So if Trump is told by someone in Country A that Hillary was going to sell out the Presidency if she won, you think it's a good idea for him to keep quiet? lol Your TDS and the other bots are a complete joke.

I know what you are saying is correct, but that wasn't the point of my post.
No one needs to make Trump look treasonous... he already does a fine job of that himself.

I can't understand the plethora of Trumpeteers who excuse him, or try to deflect "but Hillary!". What ever happened to being a patriot?

The poll asks should it be reported. The obvious answer is yes.

The reality is would it be reported by either party or candidate?

My answer would be an absolute NO. At least not until they analyzed the information and then had a legal team decide what they could get away with.

Look how the DNC buried Bernie. No low bar.

Today's politics are as dirty as they have ever been. We had a sitting US Senator use the protection of the Senate floor to lie about a presidential candidate. We have campaigns leaking half truths and at times lies. We have CNN giving debate questions to a candidate before the debate.

You would either have to be naive or a complete moron to believe that candidates wouldn't use any dirt they could on a political rival.

I won't even get into what Obama and company allegedly did to spy on Trump.
