    Lol at right wingers.... they have to pivot to merely arguing that Obama and Clinton are like Trump after bashing them for years....

    Sad!

    Classic clutchfans liberal pile-on technique: When you run out of logic, try insults and hope you get some of your fellow band of back-slapping liberals to pile-on in a vain attempt to establish credibility.

    Better approach - try fact, logic and reason.

    So boring. It's a sign of a lack of maturity and emotional growth that you've been rolling out the same tired routine for fifteen years. Grow up already.

    So you dispute Chuck Schumer's comments? Can you argue substance or are you all about the insults?

    There's an 80 page thread on collusion in which you refuse to argue substance because you're a troll.

    *snore*

    But no evidence of collusion in that thread. When Chuck Schumer admits that Russia isn't to blame, it's thread-worthy.

    Ahhh comrade bigtexxx attempts the Russian/Trump approach of conflation. Schumer was discussing why he thought Clinton lost... but comrade bigtexxx conflates the "why lost" with collusion. Schumer doesn't suggest that there wasn't collusion between Trump and the Russians.

    http://www.latimes.com/politics/la-...mer-democrats-not-blame-russia-htmlstory.html

    https://www.realclearpolitics.com/v...vidence_of_intent_to_collude_with_russia.html

    So... does this suggest bigtexxx also agrees with Schumer that there is clear evidence that Trump, Kushner, and Trump Junior all colluded with the Russians?

    There's all kinds of circumstantial evidence. 80 pages worth actually that you've responded to with insults and nonsense. The collusion investigation doesn't focus on whether the collusion had an effect on the winner ultimately but rather whether the Trump campaign colluded with Russians and whether Trump obstructed justice. Schumer's opinion on whether any of that ultimately changed the winner of election is irrelevant and likely unknowable. That you would focus on Schumer's opinion which is immaterial to the investigation further underscores that you, like many of your fellow Republicans, have sold out America.
    It's okay for the President to have colluded with a foreign power to undermine a political rival because x,y, and z. Just embarrassing and pathetic,

    "Circumstantial"

    or in other words - speculation, logic leaps, and lack of hard facts.

    thank you.

    We will never know the impact the Russians had on the election. Why continue to debate this? What we do know is that they meddled in our election, something that the administration is still not willing to admit.

    BiggTexx will you at least admit that the bipartisan legislation to increase sanctions on Russia should be signed by Trump?

    Answering this question will really determine whether this clown is a troll or not.

    Boring. Circumstantial evidence is a logical inference of hard facts. People are convicted of crimes solely on circumstantial evidence every day. You might want to get a refund on that Rice education.

    At what point do you grow up dude? Any year now.

    Educate yourself. Read the book "Thinking: Fast and Slow" by Daniel Kahneman. Circumstantial evidence is shaky and typically non-conclusive. It's lazy thinking.

    It's conclusive enough to put people on death row. Clown show.

    I have to agree. The goal posts are being moved quite a bit. And I understand that there are educated people on here, but statements like: "No one cares if Russia's interference with our elections caused the Dems to lose or not" are just not a reflection of what is actually happening on the left.

    Bingo

    Lots of goalpost moving from the left.
