Donald Trump's Call for Russia to Hack the U.S. Might Be a Felony (Libs getting desperate alert)
Daily Beast ^ | July 27, 2016 | Nancy A. Youssef, Tim Mak and Shane Harris

Donald Trump says all kinds of crazy things on the campaign trail. But this one could open him up to prosecution—if the Department of Justice was really willing to go there.

Did Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump just call for a felony to be committed? On Wednesday, he urged a foreign government to hack an American citizen and release personal emails.

"Russia, if you're listening, I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing" from emails that Hillary Clinton turned over to the State Department, Trump said in a lengthy press conference in Doral, Fla. "I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press. Let's see if that happens. That will be next. Yes, sir."

Trump himself has had financial interests in Russia. He has also praised Russian President Vladimir Putin and has said that if Russia were to invade NATO members, the United States might not come to their defense.

Democrat and RINO politicians commit felonies everyday by allowing porous borders and illegal alien terrorists to overwhelm our nation.

Dems are hypocritical losers!

I’d say that he hasn’t broken any law since the Russians probably already have hacked into Hitlary’s server. All Trump wants if for them to publish them evidence if they have any.

the dummies are in fact Dumb asses

Trump suggested the Russians provide e mails hacked by parties unknown years ago. E mails provided to Russia by a third party can be released with no foul

““Trump himself has had financial interests in Russia.”

Hillary lost them, Trump is just trying to help her find them..

Yep just as simple as that. They claim Russia found the DNC emails and Trump thought maybe Russia could help with Hiliarys

Quote from article:
[”which started as an attempt by Trump to distance himself from the DNC hack.”]

Not sure why Trump would have to “distance himself”, since he’s not the one who hacked...

Eh, I think you are overly concerned here...

Hillary is desperate...The hacks occurred months ago because her illegal home server was not secure...someone now likely has all her emails...

Frankly, I don’t care if the Easter Bunny releases them....neither do most trump and Bernie supporters. I think the Hillary campaign is spitting in the wind...

Trump has stolen the news cycle from Bill Clinton which I think is brilliant :)

Kaine was very helpful on this topic. While trying to setup up an attack on the 2nd amendment, Kaine blurted that the First Amendment doesn't allow him to disclose classified information. He's about as discreet as Joe Biden. I'm sure Hillary appreciated the support.

The server is clearly no longer on line. But it may still be in the FBI Lab. Do these wonderful anti-Trump intellects think through what they write? Do they think the FBI would make what is left of the equipment available to any foreign Government?

Donald Trump really does have a great knack for demonstrating who is too stupid to justify being taken seriously.

Another great day for the chances of returning America to what once was accepted as her destiny! Trump really does get it.

But can Comey find the intent?

Comey is compromised by the Clinton Foundation. He couldn't find intent if it was tattooed on his chest.

The DNC emails were not hacked. The press keeps repeating this lie, among others. The emails were leaked. That means someone on the inside provided them to WikiLeaks.

Hillary should be demanding that the Russians hand them over too. I mean if she told the truth, it would clear her. If they are all yoga and Chelsea, think of the egg on the Republican’s faces.

Trump makes a sarcastic comment and the media and dems melt down.

Clintons are known traitors and NOTHING is done.

Nothing could more clearly show the media and liberal bias.

They actually are stupid and the only ones from the press who didn’t fall for it was CNBC - on another thread on FR. The stupidity was to make an issue re felony BS - where it was clearly a ploy to detract from the Democratic Convention. Now they are pumping hot air and shaking all over in fake consternation where they would normally be single mindedly pumping Clinton’s tires.
