I agree that objectivity does tend to get lost in this story on both sides. On the other hand. How long did Trump hold up his birther claims even after it was objectively proven to be baloney? How long did Republicans hold up the Benghazi story? 7 separate congressional investigations all coming up empty if I'm not mistaking. Did the Hilary e-mail screaming stop after Comey finished his investigation? Objectively speaking none of these stories hold the same seriousness as this one, yet it dragged for years and is still dragging for most Republicans.Russian agent?Since there is no law against "collusion", with a little digging the Rats have decided to give"conspiracy to collude" a go. Again, they can't snare the President so his son will have to do. The gist of this nothing-burger is that because Junior "thought" he might get some dirt on the Clintons from a Russian, (any Russian will do), that's a conspiracy.
Jeffrey Jacobovitz, a white collar lawyer who represented officials in the Clinton White House and now is with Arnall Golden Gregory LLP. And it could mean Trump Jr. crossed the legal line on collusion with Russia.
But you can go to jail for conspiring with a foreign adversary to influence or undermine an election, and Jacobovitz thinks what the New York Times reported Trump Jr. did could rise to that level.
“You may have crossed the line on conspiracy to commit election fraud or conspiracy to obtain information from a foreign adversary,” he said. “You cannot benefit from a foreign adversary in this kind of scenario.”
Who would know better how to "benefit from a foreign adversary" better than a Clintonite?
Analysis | Donald Trump Jr. may have just crossed the legal line on collusion
the terms conspiracy and collusion are being used interchangeably, dum dum.
conspiracy does not require the completion of the criminal act, only the taking of a step or "overt act" in furtherance of the conspiracy.
now, dum dum.... what do you think meeting with a soviet agent is?
this is why no one should pretend to "debate" you freaks
This really is the problem that I have with the coverage and constant focus on the Trump-Russia connection. Anyone who is Russian is suddenly a Russian agent colluding even if those meetings (as in the case with sessions) are part of their job. A very serious matter has devolved into pathetic whining.
