Geez, you really are going to have to layoff of all this hysterics that is constantly being drummed up by the DNC losers, and that fake liberal media. Trump is clean. Live with it. 1 Quote

Indeed, as there are a lot more Canadian government ministers and lobbyists talking to American politicians and corporations to try and influence U.S policies. Been doing it for a long time. Russia is a large country with a military and economic impact on allies that is far greater than Canada's. Talking to Russians is better than fighting Russians on the battlefield. Quote Economics trumps Virtue.

Omni Posted June 10, 2017 Report Posted June 10, 2017 Lets ger Trump under oath and in front of congress and see what he has to say. I assume he understands the concept, but I'm not so sure since he has demonstrated himself to be quite a liar. Quote
Hal 9000 Posted June 10, 2017 Report Posted June 10, 2017 It's a sad state of affairs when instead of seeing a possible crime and having an investigation, the government has an investigation with the hope that a crime gets committed in the process.

Yes, he said that, however - and I'll slow it down a bit for you, the threat of tapes makes Comey more honest in his testimony - just in case.

Not one of the people on his team was a US government official. Not one was a diplomat of any sort. Not one was or had ever been attached to the State Department. You could make the case that Sessions as a senator could have a reason to talk to the Russians, but that's it. Why was his son in law talking to them? According to Trump the family has no business with the Russians.

That's political sleeze at it's worst. This might surprise you but generally things do get investigated before charges are laid - unless they catch you red-handed. Here's something else you seem to have forgotten, though it was in the news a while back. It is against the law for a non-government official to negotiate with a foreign power. For example, if anyone on the Trump team, including Trump, told the Russians not to worry about that estate seized by the government for espionage, that they'd get it back when Trump got elected, that would be a federal crime.
