The problem here is the 'wayback' machine does not fit today's narrative:
https://www.politico.com/story/2017/01/ukraine-sabotage-trump-backfire-233446 "Ukrainian government officials tried to help Hillary Clinton and undermine Trump by publicly questioning his fitness for office. They also disseminated documents implicating a top Trump aide in corruption and suggested they were investigating the matter, only to back away after the election. And they helped Clinton’s allies research damaging information on Trump and his advisers, a Politico investigation found." Headline: Ukrainian efforts to sabotage Trump backfire Kiev officials are scrambling to make amends with the president-elect after quietly working to boost Clinton. So it seems to me the RIGHT thing to do is find out WHY and HOW Ukraine helped boost Clinton. Now why oh why would Dems not want that to come out? |
Just stop it with the hearsay nonsense already. You people clearly don’t understand what this is, nor are you familiar with the exceptions to the rule against hearsay. If you aren’t a lawyer, just shut up. If you are a lawyer, you obviously weren’t paying attention in Evidence or just went to a truly crappy law school and should demand your money back. |
The "top Trump aide" that was implicated in corruption was Manafort. And methinks you do not understand today's narrative. At all. |
You missed a line: and suggested they were investigating the matter, only to back away after the election. And this one: And they helped Clinton’s allies research damaging information on Trump and his advisers, a Politico investigation found Who are they? Manafort again? |
Yes, Manafort and Gates. The guys who have been involved in corruption in Ukraine for literally decades. Those guys. Trump's campaign manager and deputy. |
So what you are saying to me is that you feel that Ukraine was actually helping the Trump campaign. OK |
You sound like you are totally lost, unable to understand the basics of what happened in 2016 or what is happening now. How old are you? Were you born yesterday? Are you 1 day old? |
It's actually a simple question. Did Ukraine help the Clinton campaign or not? |
"In the email, which was sent in early May to then-DNC communications director Luis Miranda, Chalupa noted that she had extended an invitation to the Library of Congress forum to veteran Washington investigative reporter Michael Isikoff. Two days before the event, he had published a story for Yahoo News revealing the unraveling of a $26 million deal between Manafort and a Russian oligarch related to a telecommunications venture in Ukraine. And Chalupa wrote in the email she’d been “working with for the past few weeks” with Isikoff “and connected him to the Ukrainians” at the event. Isikoff, who accompanied Chalupa to a reception at the Ukrainian Embassy immediately after the Library of Congress event, declined to comment. Chalupa further indicated in her hacked May email to the DNC that she had additional sensitive information about Manafort that she intended to share “offline” with Miranda and DNC research director Lauren Dillon, including “a big Trump component you and Lauren need to be aware of that will hit in next few weeks and something I’m working on you should be aware of.” Explaining that she didn’t feel comfortable sharing the intel over email, Chalupa attached a screenshot of a warning from Yahoo administrators about “state-sponsored” hacking on her account, explaining, “Since I started digging into Manafort these messages have been a daily occurrence on my yahoo account despite changing my password often.” Dillon and Miranda declined to comment." |
| To the gossip and hearsay crowd: you do know Trump admitted this, right? His defense is that he did it and it's ok. Try to keep up with your guy's spin. |
Chalupa tried to get Manafort fired and indirectly succeeded. Poroshenko didn't help the Clinton campaign but was unable, after the election, to butter up Trump, although he tried. And now we have Zelenskyy, who you seem totally uninterested in. Gee, I wonder why that could be. |
The article sub-headline specifically states that Ukraine worked to help the Clinton campaign. That's a lie? |
