Seems to me if there was Russian involvement, and that is a big if! It would have been to the benefit of Hillary Clinton and mostly likely during the primaries not the general election.
One does not need to be a rocket scientist to see if the Russians desired more uranium, then Hillary would have been who the Russians were pulling for.
I also find it curious that the Russians were offering dirt on Hillary to Trump JR. That seemed like a total setup. Trump Jr. was apparently smart enough to pass. So the rats sent in Manafort and Page. One must keep in mind that the GOPe wanted no part of Trump being President either. They are just as corrupt as the rats.
I have found it absurd to say the very least that the Rats have turned on their formerly communist pals.
This is my take and given that I am just an average American from fly over country, I could be totally wrong. But it's my take so far.
You may remember how in 2010 Democrat Hank Johnson was worried about the island of Guam capsizing by putting 8,000 marines on the island.
Well the very same Hank Johnson questioned Diamond and Silk at their congressional hearing a few minutes ago and got way than he bargained for from the two social media stars. You might say he just got capsized!
Watch the feisty exchange below:
Absolutely Trump Jr was Set up, the Russian Lawyer, Natalia Veselnitskaya had previously worked with Fusion GPS on the Prevezon Holdings case. And of course Fusion GPS was the source of the phony pee pee dossier.

In 2013, the US Department of Justice, represented by the US Attorney for the Southern District of New York, Preet Bharara, sued Prevezon Holding, a Republic of Cyprus corporation registered in New York State as a foreign business corporation, under the Magnitsky Act for money-laundering. The lawsuit sought forfeiture of various assets and real estate holdings in the US.
The sole shareholder of Prevezon was Russian citizen Denis Katsyv, whose father is Petr Katsyv, vice president of Russia’s state-run rail monopoly and “reportedly a business associate of Vladimir Yakunin, a confidant of Vladimir Putin”. Katsyv’s Russian lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya was not licensed to practice in the US, and Katsyv hired the law firm of BakerHostetler to represent Prevezon; BakerHostetler hired Fusion GPS in early 2014 to provide research help for the litigation.
Of course CNN tried to spin in last year.

Was the Russian lawyer who met with Donald Trump Jr., Jared Kushner and Paul Manafort in June of last year the first evidence of possible Trump campaign collusion with Russia — or was she part of a sinister Democratic plot to entrap the Trump campaign?
Over the past three days, members of the pro-Trump media have settled on their answer, characterizing the lawyer, Natalia Veselnitskaya, as a leftist with ties to the Obama administration. The idea quickly drifted upward to some of the most influential figures in right-wing media, and then ultimately to President Trump himself, who referenced some of its underpinnings during a Thursday press conference in France as he attempted to explain away his son’s meeting with the Russian lawyer.
The theory is based on bits of fact that have been taken out of context or spun in misleading ways to paint a picture that the President and his supporters prefer to the one currently dominating much of the media.
The narrative appears to be untrue, but in some ways that’s beside the point.
