    I'm still waiting for our resident liberals to touch the fact that Hillary colluded with the Ukrainian government to gather dirt on Trump, and then used that information to force the resignation of Trump's campaign manager. If what Junior did was potentially illegal, then what Hillary did was definitely illegal.

      So is the hockey team. So what? Being technically connected, and actually having something to do with the government are different things entirely. Hell, you, Star, and Tassy know me online, and I work for the US Government, so that makes you all "connected" with the US Government. Welcome to the team boys!

      That was all that was necessary for your baseless assumption of "clarity".




      Because that's the facts as known. There is no evidentiary support for any connection between this deceptively purposed meeting and the release of emails from Wikileaks. The man who set it up was a liar, and the woman who met with them was a liar.
      I have opened an investigation into allegations that you as an official of the US Government have been colluding with agents from Australia and New Zealand to undermine the USA.

        Here's an interesting twist:

        So the same folks who tried to give dirt to the Trump campaign gave dirt to the Clinton campaign - but it wasn't the Trump campaign that fell for it hook, line, and sinker.

          So first they create the dirt, then report it to the Clintons.

                    So, the Democrats set-up a meeting between a Russian lawyer and the Trumps, so they could use it again them at... no point in the election? Good grief.

                    The Steele dossier does not mention the meeting at all, so the theory comes apart right there.

                      I think you're misreading the situation. Sparko is referring to the dossier, not the meeting. Of course the dossier wouldn't mention the meeting.

                          You know that Republicans opposed to Trump funded the dossier initially, right?

                          What's interesting is that this lawyer somehow was aware of the Russian governments campaign to help Trump, even if she was a fraud.

                                We still don't have any evidence the Russians wanted Trump to win. That's nothing but unfounded speculation, no matter how much a conspiracy nut like you wishes it was true. And, no, an email from a woman that even you admit was a fraud is not evidence, or at least it's not credible evidence. But if it that does count as credible evidence in your ignorant little world...

                                I'm curious, given your general credulity and gullibility, what do you make of the fact that what she reported were illegal financial ties between Russia and Hillary's campaign? That's the one part of this story you won't touch with a ten-foot pole, and we know why.
