It's wrong to seek foreign help for a campaign. If you think it was wrong when Clinton did it, it's wrong for Trump to do it. It dorsn't matter if the dirt is real or fake.

So.... it's A-OK for a candidate to pay a foreign national for information from Putin-connected Russians.... no problem with that.
But, asking a foreign government to look into corruption is impeachable.

The insanity of the left.

It's wrong to hire an investigator to do opposition research in a foreign country. But it's A-OK to blackmail a foreign country into manufacturing dirt on your opponent.

The insanity of the right.

Some of them can, some of them can't. But either way, they'd prefer to troll than to admit it.

Ok, so if the Clinton campaign's "opposition research" via the foreign sourced dossier is not a big deal, then why the investigation into the Trump campaign's so called "collusion"?

Difference between illegally asking a foreign country for help and a company legally paying another company for services.

What foreign country did the Trump campaign ask for help?

Russia, if you are listening, and poof, within hours, a hack was made.

But since you asked, he also had help from Israel, Saudi Arabia and UAE.

So if the Trump campaign illegally asked all four of these countries for help, why did the 2 year long Mueller investigation not come to that conclusion?

These most recent allegations are just that, RECENT. we no longer need to guess how emboldened the president became after he managed to barely scoot past Mueller. And don’t forget that the report DIDN’T exonerate him. It just left it up to Congress. So.... we know how that went.

From the Muller report: “investigation did not identify evidence that any U.S. persons knowingly and intentionally coordinated with the IRA’s interference operations”

You selectively copied that and you left off the second part of the statement.



Here's something in full
“[I]f we had confidence after a thorough investigation of the facts that the President clearly did not commit obstruction of justice, we would so state. Based on the facts and the applicable legal standards, however, we are unable to reach that judgment. The evidence we obtained about the President’s actions and intent presents difficult issues that prevent us from conclusively determining that no criminal conduct occurred. Accordingly, while this report does not conclude that the President committed a crime, it also does not exonerate him.”

They illegally withheld congressionally appropriated funds until they received their thing of value. It is self evident and inarguable. Even Tucker Carlson said so.

More importantly, they extorted Ukraine into withdrawing from Dombass, ceding this important area to Putin.

How does that support American and its allies policy there?

Also asked Ukraine to manufacture dirt


[7/25/19, 8:36:45 AM] Kurt Volker: Good lunch - thanks. Heard from White House—assuming President Z convinces trump he will investigate / “get to the bottom of what happened” in 2016, we will nail down date for visit to Washington. Good luck! See you tomorrow- kurt

"get to the bottom of what happened" = "make something up for us"

that combined with
I think potus really wants the deliverable.


They wanted fake dirt.

You invented the bolded to suit your version.

No. He had "get to the bottom of what happened" with his own little double quotes.

What does it mean when we put double quotes around something in the middle of a statement? Let's try it.

You are saying that when he said "get to the bottom of what happened" that what he really meant was make something up. That's pure speculation.

FACT CHECK: Ambassador Volker told us yesterday that Taylor’s knowledge here was from an August 28 Politico article. Not because Taylor had any independent information.

It’s deceitful for Democrats to release these cherry-picked texts without full context of Volker’s testimony. https://twitter.com/ryanstruyk/status/1180132053049860100 …

So Volker testified that Taylor didn't know that Ukraine was being screwed over until the article came out. Did Volker by chance testify about the texts he sent in July?

wow, just read volker's statement.

He is claiming that he didn't know, and Guiliani and Trump and Sondland played him and screwed him over, and screwed over Taylor, and of course Ukraine, the US and pretty much everyone except Russia.

Trump probably also said "Washington" "investigate" "White House" "President". None of those words were in quotes in the text. Why is that?

Such a great question. Why is the GOP keeping the FEC from functioning?

WHY???

Because it serves their own nefarious interests of course.
