    Not only was Trump not charged or indicted, but neither was ANY OTHER AMERICAN CITIZEN for conspiring with Russia to influence the 2016 election. Not a single person.

    But please continue with your thrilling fantasy that Putin controls Trump.


    GOOD DAY

    Trump said publicly that Trump would fire Comey no matter what Rosenstein recommended.

    A little bird told it’s not over. Something about an issue with improperly reporting income from foreign loans being forgiven. Stay tuned!

    Yet he only did AFTER Rosenstein recommended it no matter how much Comey deserved to be fired.

    This is the last of the Democrat left media's credibility swirling down the commode in particularly ignoble fashion.

    Perhaps. Or perhaps not. Perhaps they were referred to one of the states for prosecution. Again, the report may say. Or one of the states may indict after the report is made public.

    I explained to you what I was looking for, a straightfoward explanation of “how” the Russians interfered, I gave you every opportunity to respond. You did not respond. I read the wikipedia article cited by your fellow poster and it asserted the social media campaign (facebook Memes) and the release of the DNC emails were the main things. That’s why I addressed them.

    Obviously you shouldn’t have foreign government trying to influence elections but if that’s the main things they’ve done. Made facebook memes and released real emails. That’s pretty weak sauce. Those emails should have been released. Disgusting conduct by the DNC. The people should know that’s happening.

    Please be honest. I posted the actual reports... they provide the clear and unfiltered (media, left or right wing) of what Russia was caught doing. If you don't care to learn what Russia attempted to and succeeded in doing... don't complain that all you were presented was wikipedia articles. Of course, their actions benefit your preferred candidate. So of course you prefer to keep a blind eye. But the reports will still be out there.

    I really hope the report is made public without executive privilege being used to hide the juicy parts.

    I've heard the same thing about you...that you are tied to the Russian mob and you owe them lots of money. Lets face it, you're compromised. But being compromised isn't a crime for a citizen of the US. So why would there be an indictment? You don't have to break a law to betray your country for money.

    You know what else all our intelligence agencies agreed upon? WMD's in Iraq.

    trump tried the same argument... didn't work for him either...

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...e-house/?noredirect=on&utm_term=.8eefe78dbdae

    https://www.cnn.com/2017/01/04/opin...er-cia-fiasco-like-iraq-wmd-bergen/index.html

    http://nation.time.com/2012/09/06/iraq-how-the-cia-says-it-blew-it-on-saddams-wmd/

    In fact, the final CIA report concluded that there were no WMDs...
    http://www.nbcnews.com/id/7634313/n...-final-report-no-wmd-found-iraq/#.XJbxEJhKiUk

    Of course, there were different people involved in the U.S. intelligence committee's then and now. Different processes and procedures. And... both the House and Senate intelligence committees also agreed with the unanimous intelligence communities that Russia interefered.

    Again, that excuse didn't work for trump when he tried it... and still doesn't work now.

    Not only that, they leaked to NBC, that bastion of the right, that there are no sealed indictments, which is what an indictment against Trump would look like.

    The rules against indicting the president relate entirely to while he is president and the necessary responsibility for the function of the state, not a permanent immunity card.

    We'd also need to believe that if Mueller found he was a puppet of Russia, that somehow that would stay hidden, and if that was the case, Putin is the master of the USA, with or without Trump.

    After having his two year long conspiracy theory proven false, dobro comes back with more conspiracy theories.

    Except there is a truckload of evidence showing that Trump indeed is a pawn of the Russians.

    The report will not be made public, Trump is smart enough to hide what needs to be hidden, and you will rejoice like the robot you are.

    Or Mueller knew he would pardon them, and he can't pardon them on a state offense.

    You might want to have some patience before making any kind of declarative statements.
