“Wow. Now I’m watching Hannity and he is spreading it too. Just stop talking about it.”

Just like GW never addressed all the slime that was thrown against him?

Did it ever dawn on some people the whole thing may have been instigated to get the left all hyperventilated over it only to have the real meat and potatoes come out while the discussion was hot? What media source would run with any story about collusion that was instigated by the right?

Get the meme of the story going and then body slam it.

...”This whole thing looks like a Podesta operation. They were trying to set Jr up and he fell for it. And who had lots of connections with the Russians? Podesta.”...

I find myself wondering whether anyone else is beginning to feel as I am that this obsession to get Trump is about far more than these made up situations with Russia which are insane. People with even limited logic can see that these journalists are not about journalism. So, what is so bad in the lives of the left and their cohorts that they must destroy a duly elected President and the American system to cover it up? Why are they so afraid of this President who is independent of their “play for pay” system which keeps everyone quiet about what they are up to? When you think about what that might be, very scary images come to mind about their dreams of what tyranny might buy for them and how they almost had it wrapped before Trump decided to throw his hat into the ring. I do not know how this story will end, but I do believe that this nation is onto the anarchists among us and I believe that Western Civilizations understand much of what is going on here. They like Trump. They see him as a fresh and strong leader of America and they know how much they depend on her for their own security. Her enemies are desperate and deranged. “Trump derangement,” should be recognized as a real mental illness based on narcissism and the passion to enslave others.

Either that, or it's proof that there was collusion, between the Russians and the Democrats.

That's assuming this isn't more BS from anonymous sources.

LOL! I guess it was OK for Obama and the FBI to do nothing with the info they had (of course we have been informed that Obama “had words” with Putin...) but they want to make it like it was Trump Jr.’s job to do something...

Am I to understand the Russian Collusion was more powerful than 97% Clinton-Press-DNC Collusion and the CPDNC collusion efforts were in plain sight and this puny RC was clandestine?

I see. Yawn and stretch.

Let it go, NYT no one cares. Hillary lost even with her billion in spending and her billions in free propaganda via the press.

Trump is President. Hillary is a loser, lazy, pathetic leader wanna be whose greed consumes her every waking moment. The worst of American politics in an ill-fitting over priced pantsuit.

President Roosevelt was insistent on colluding with murderous Stalin fight Hitler. Or, to help one hog fight another hog.

I still cannot grasp the outrageous enormity assigned to the Russians by the MSM that the Russians are such polished experts on American politics that they can place “their guy” into the highest office in the land by just a twitch of their little finger, negating the decades of effort and the billions spent by Hillary trying to achieve that office.

The real outrageous enormity is the treason being committed by the MSM daily. Their stance is to rule or ruin.

Don Jr seems like a bright guy. Here’s the part about this I don’t get. There are a busload of AMERICANS that could of given him very - verifiable - damaging info on Hillary. Hell an hour on FR would of been a good place to start. Instead he has to play games with a Russian lawyer of questionable pedigree. Foolish at best.

The Russian lawyer is on NBC now flapping her gums and contradicting Don Jr. This is an obvious FSB op to undermine Trump. Putin still think the kenyan is the WH and he can jack him around. He’s in for a big, big surprise.

No, you’re wrong. They’ve been fully identified as three people. Three! And they’re people. What more do you need?

I have said this before: There is a bigger picture here and Trump sees it, while the DemoRATS and the media don’t.

Law is held in check by the Constitution. And the Constitution is, in turn, derived from the Natural Law of God. That’s the highest law there is.

Trump wants an alliance with Russia as a means to an end, which is protecting Christian civilization,of which the United States is part. Now, it’s pretty clear that, whatever statutes say, the highest duty of a president is to protect the nation. Even if a law is technically broken, no president is in the wrong if an act was necessary to preserve the nation. But a president who “follows the rules,” at the expense of the nation has committed a serious crime. So, it’s pretty clear that Trump has done nothing wrong - regardless of how this plays out.

But this goes even above and beyond Trump’s inherent constitutional duty. Trump is literally doing God’s work by bringing together the world’s most powerful Christian powers. Let no man interfere!

Sounds like a setup by the person who sent Donald Jr. the first email
