If the Chinese stole the trump campaign emails, and RNC emails, and Joe Biden's campaign members worked with Chinese operatives to get those emails, and used those stolen emails of Trump''s campaign in his rallies over two hundred times to damage Trump's run and campaign, would you be saying that Biden colluded with the Chinese to beat Trump?Your dissembling is of no consequence. The simple distinction drawn between DNS traffic and "other data" is noted by Durham and that ain't there for nothing . . . The "clearification" you need, will happen at trial.
I didn't say there wasn't any "Russian interference". I said the accusations against Trump and "Russian collusion" were a hoax and Crowdstrike's story that the DNC email leak was the result of a Russian hack, was a hoax.
I remember many accusations that Obama "choked" when Russian interference in the 2016 election became evident. There was no real "counter intelligence effort", Obama told Russia to stop, HRC was given a defensive briefing, Trump was not.
The Obama/HRC TDS drove whatever response there was . . . Instead of stopping the Russian interference, it was decided that using the Russian interference to nurture accusations against Trump was much more useful to the Democrat's situation.
The Hillary email "matter" (not investigation, remember?) was completed and closed by early July of '16, just as the Trump focused McCabe, Comey, Priestap, Strzok, Page, Baker "Crossfire Hurricane" was ramping up. Then the trove of emails on Abedin's laptop surfaced and tens of thousands of emails were deemed, within a day or two, to be personal or copies already examined and that went away . . . The Trump investigation stayed active and expanded well into Trump's Presidency, while less and less evidence showed Trump / Russia connections / collusion.
