    They don't care. As I said in the other thread, they'd rather be right and have Trump associates or Trump in jail than be wrong and Trump be innocent of crimes.

    The entire outlook in life of Trump trolls is whatever helps them create "liberal tears". I could show up at their house with a check for 1000 bucks but if it's what "liberals" wanted to happen they'd shut the door in your face and then act like the victim.

    When your hero President is a professional internet troll who listens to Alex Jones.... I guess this is what you get.

    LOL, you can't even get your metaphors right, much less make any sort of argument against. Burying your head in the sand would be the opposite of dizzying heights, for those playing along at home...but then logic isn't generally the strong suit of most of those trying to 'connect the dots'.

    It is far better to have one's head buried in the sand than in the place too many others have theirs embedded, fwiw...but it is a completely inappropriate allusion. The last thing anyone with any integrity or objectivity could accuse me of...but it is highly indicative of the typical tactic of the left, exemplified a couple times just on this page: Don't bother arguing, or bring evidence. Simply make snarky comments, LOL's, etc. The tactic of those without the brainpower to do elsewise--much less even get their snarky comments right. Then to try to pull that off implying that it is I, not you, who seem to be operating with their head buried...that is rich! rich indeed!

    The 'evidence' presented doesn't come vaguely close to connecting the dots. Most of it is barely even a dot itself. Even pundits on the left have described it as a big nothing burger. The communication with Putin ordering the interference is very interesting and alarming, but it does NOTHING to imply that Trump colluded with him in any way on that. Russia's involvement in the election IS worth investigating, and DOES have actual evidence behind it. Trump colluding with them on it? Pretty much nothing, so far. Just a big drum the left wants to keep banging.

    As for total media blackout...that's what the media has forced anyone trying to actually get information to do. It's all Russia, all the time...and by design. We have CNN sources telling us this very thing...have you not been paying attention to that?

    As for every media outlet worth its salt...which outlets might those be, hmmm? Because, if YOU have been paying any actual attention at all, there really aren't any. Very few are actually news outlets anymore, and I'd be willing to bet that none of the one's on your list qualify. The stories coming out around CNN manipulating and directing its coverage of events and very indicative, and quite telling. If you've bought into it...congratulations! You are one of the sheep!

    If it is nothing that will come out, let's see where the investigation leads....nothing to fear if no illegality was done.

    That's fair, although I do think there needs to be a reasonable amount of time at which point the investigation ends. If they are still looking a couple years from now, but still haven't found anything meaningful, that's too long.

    The problem isn't what they find, the problem is the lengths to which you will ignore and deem irrelevant what is found. You've already displayed in your recent posts, despite the reams of verifiable connections and lies, that you don't have the faintest interest in the evidence. You and your ilk give more credence to compiracies from wingnut websites, trolls, kooks, and provocateurs than evidence generated by the FBI. It's a sad commentary on what has become of Americans.

    Sorry DD but you're wrong, it won't stop until Trump trips or quits. The losing side refuses to accept defeat and will find a way to usurp our democratic process making it look like they are heroes who saved the country from an evil person when the truth is they are true evil in disguise. Enemies of America who've convinced themselves because of their egos that they are saviors.

    Trump Jr. meeting with a Russian in the hopes of getting dirt on Hillary to sway the election is pretty big evidence. The evidence has all been all addressed on here before. Ignore it if you'd like, it doesn't really matter.

    Robert Mueller = Enemy of America/Ursurper of the American Democratic Process

    Russia = Friend of America/Savior of the American Democratic Process

    What? We know from the emails and what Trump Jr. himself has said after lying about it several times that it happened. They haven't brought charges against anyone as of yet. Making a case has nothing to do with what evidence we know exists.

    Russia is no friend but no one expects that. They do what they do just like we do what we do. But from inside your own country?!? And I'm blaming sides because Republican warlords tried to do the same to Obama's rightful victory but failed. Neither party can accept defeat at the hands of the American People. Shame on all of them and all of you who support their silent coup attempts and their attempts to destroy the voting power of Americans.

    Are you equivicating the massive amounts of circumstantial evidence to Trump and Russia to Obama and his ridiculous Kenyian Muslim claims?

    Notice how the special prosecuter and the investigation is occurring with a GOP majority in the House, Senate and Supreme Court along with a GOP administration. How do the Dems have any power to continue the investigation? This investigation is occurring over it's OWN MERITS.

    Well how long was Benghazi? Or Watergate?

    And yes, Trump Jr.'s meeting was illegal - and it will be part of the process.

    Yet the IC led by Mueller is was greenlit and is allowed to continue under a GOP House and Senate.

    How are Dems pushing this?
