Even if there were links between President Donald Trump’s campaign and the Russian government, it isn’t illegal

It is political

That’s not a crime in and of itself

They want to make Americans think it is.

That’s all that matters.

Everyone here knows there is nothing that a Romanian or a Russian or any other kind of hacker could do to actually affect the election because the voting machines are not connected to the internet. The only hacking was to the DNC itself. All we really know is that there was hacking of Democrat materials especially their emails.

We have to ask ourselves, “Why?” What would any hacker hope to get?

Everyone was expecting Hillary to win this thing right up to the very end. It was a big surprise that even Trump was ultimately and actually preferred over Hillary by the American people. So, because they expected Hillary to win, they wanted to have information they could use to manipulate her in office. This would be a classic Russian move.

Sidebar: There is no way the Russians would prefer having Trump as president over Hillary. Whatever Trump represented or behaved or however out of the norm his politics were, no one ever doubted that he was going to be building up the military. And the Russians had no intention of losing another arms race. There is no way the Russians would help Trump win. On the other hand there is every reason to think they wanted Hillary to win because she presented a very anti-American opportunity for them in the continuation of Obama’s policies. As everyone knows, Putin is trying to rebuild his empire and hopes to get more uranium and plutonium with Clinton in his pocket.

At this point, all the Democrats can do is undermine Trump, hoping to impeach him and accuse him of dealing with the Russians. Sour grapes, sour grapes. Yet, Pence could possibly be a bigger threat to the Russians AND the Democrats than Trump, since he is an actual Conservative. The Democrats are in a real quandary.

Their only hope, a really dim one now, is to overturn the election. That failing, to tie him up the way they did Reagan in the later years; to weaken the conservatives politically in order to take back the house and the senate in 2018 and then the presidency in 2020, so that they can continue their program of globalism and destruction of the American way of life. The Democrats, however, are delusional if they expect that to happen precisely BECAUSE of the tactics they are using. Americans are getting tired of these games.

Indeed but they don’t even have the evidence to show the Russians DID in fact leak the emails - just an opinion that they did.

That’s what I keep wondering. Obama was fine talking to our enemy Iran and giving them money. And he was fine telling Russia that he would be more flexible AFTER the election.

If Trump spoke with UK’s prime minister would anyone care? No because it’s not illegal. And we aren’t at war with Russia so it’s not illegal to talk to them either.
