I thought the ongoing charge has been colluding with the Russians to illegally influence the election. How does meeting to obtain negative information about your political opponent from any and all sources (done in all elections!) constitute collusion to steal an election?

Didn’t multiple wealthy democrat supporters offer money to find ‘dirt’ on Trump?

Yup.

Still no smoking gun here. Zero, zip, zilch nada evidence the Russians had anything damaging to communicate on Hillary Clinton.

Opposition research is normal in a campaign. The fake news is blowing it way out of proportion.

yep, and if it comes out the Russians did have dirt on Ugly, all it proves to me is that she could be blackmailed later on had she ever won potus.

Also, Clinton trying to get oppo research on Trump from a former MI-6 agent is not "British meddling" in the election, but Trump trying to get oppo research from a Russian lawyer IS "Russian meddling?"
