    It doesn't get dirtier and more criminal than these guys. What a disgusting example.

    Not surprised and won’t matter. 42% of the country will support him. There could be a video of him gagging on Putin’s crotch and he would have 40% support.

    He is getting to the point where he can do anything he wants. He has control of all levels of government. The electoral college and senate rules make it such that having the most nationl support or even total support means little... when two senators from Montana are worth the same as two in a huge populated state like California.

    People can b**** or show up and vote.

    You can see the long game of using the liberal slant of Times editorials to attack the overall accuracy of their reporting (which is totally different). So here we have some more reporting, and all of Two Scoops Nation is already trained to never read anything from the Times, even though they have some of the best gum shoes in the business and always have.

    It's like, "whatever you do, don't trust the failing (sic) Tims and the Bezos-directly WaPo," or, er... any major newspaper that still spends a lot of money on fact-finding and primary reporting. LOL.

    I'm not saying they never make mistakes. But I'm saying if we quit listening to papers with actual reporters (not just talking heads and web-surfers), we're not going to inject much truth and fact into our political conversations. That type of future greatly interests some people more than others, and I'd call anti-truth people scary in general. That's my bias, I guess.

    There’s virtually nothing the Isrealis could provide that manipulates voters more than Fox so-called News.

    Which is why it’s odd they would just brazenly think they could get away with this.

    Trump voters don't care - they are perfectly fine with Putin's assistance if it helps them keep Dems out of power

    George Nader, a convicted pedophile, was told by the Secret Service that he could not meet the president. His business partner, Elliott Broidy, helped him secure this photo with the president.

    Nader had ties to the Trump campaign; Mueller is specifically interested in an alleged $2 million payment that the founder (of Psy Group) reportedly received shortly after the 2016 election from the convicted pedophile. campaign violation, no???

    Seriously, where are all the usual defenders?

    Awaiting the talking points or just hoping nobody notices this particular sign of anti-American, anti-sovereignty crookedness?

    Come on really? Isn't it all political candidates that try and use foreign government assistance to defraud the American people? Isn't that what this county is really about? When will people stop trying to make excuses for Hillary losing.

    Get over it people! Hillary lost! That means it's okay that one side asked a foreign govt. agency to help them defraud American citizens.
