    There is no such crime as collusion. How many times do you have to be told. The crime is criminal conspiracy, and Mueller's report state they found insufficient evidence. Didn't say they found no evidence.

    Those claims have absolutely not been proven false. What evidence has shown that to be fallacious? Also it was pointed out that he was a possible Russian asset. It was not stated that he was.

    Nobody was calling him a Russian spy. So that wasn't anyone's original statement.

    Why don't you fill in the appropriate word. Who would expose state secrets because they refuse to use a secured line to conduct their government business and instead use a consumer iPhone? Trump is exposing and feeding secrets to our adversaries by doing this. So he exposing them like a _________(pgabs, fill in the blank)

    A man running 3 companies and a campaign would NOT take just any meeting he is told to be in without knowing who it is with.

    The man is blatantly lying about that. Right? Time is money. Time is limited. Yes?

    The man is so entitled that he doesn't see the gravity of the accusation (the likely goal of a meeting with such an email subject line is worse than what Cohen is serving time for atm). And so, the question - "will you call FBI if you Russians offer to help your campaign?" is not even worth considering to him.

    Accepting help (whether financial or beneficial intelligence) from a foreign adversary by a domestic political campaign seems MUCH worse than paying hush money to Stormey Daniels. Any true American can see that. Yet they took this meeting.

    Why is this man still in the WH? Maybe I'm ignorant of some cultural quirk that lets this guy off the hook.

    Is it the presumption of innocence until proven guilty? Or is it because the guy is rich? Young? Arrogant? Acts trustworthy? Family? Neophytes are a-ok? Is it because ever since the "P*ssy grabbing" incident and the death of John McCain, accountability went completely out the window?

    Our political system is sh*t right now. No two way about it.

    So this was just you joking, and you absolutely did not believe the media and others were claiming Trump was a Kremlin spy?

    @FranchiseBlade

    A lot of posters said he is working for Putin. Now while they may not have been saying he is a spy, that is what a fictional or real spy does. Works in a government but secretly for another

    So while people may have not meant part of the sarcasm was to ask do you guys realize what you're saying

    The point people were making is that he was doing Putin's work, not that he is knowingly working for Putin. The person who brought up that idea was you. You wrote about the media being stupid for not recognizing that he wasn't a Russian spy.

    You are welcome to go back and read your posts.

    You claim that you never thought anyone was actually saying he was a spy. Then you post here right now about how people are more or less saying he's a spy.

    So you have a very nuanced position. You are making fun of the idea that anyone is accusing Trump of being a spy. Then you go on to post how people are basically saying he is doing the work of a Russian spy.

    I will admit I haven't reached that level of nuance yet.

    Its not nuanced.

    The accusation is that he knowingly let the Russian government help him win. Most posters here took it as a quid pro

    Most posters took as him unknowingly providing quid pro quo. Though his campaign did hand over information to them.

    No. The Trump campaign knowingly handed over information. Trump as President has unknowingly acted in Putin's interest.

    Actually from someone who has had everything in life handed to him from nutting out of a 400 million dollar penis to getting accepted into UPenn with daddy's endowments and legacy admissions, im not sure how we would learn that lesson? In fact I believe he believes he's entitled to everything on this planet from women to oil in Goering countries.
