Ask about Russia but don’t ask who sold a large portion of our country’s uranium to them for contributions to her “charitable” foundation.
When there was total certainty that Herself would win (an all but foregone conclusion right up to about ten PM on the night of the election), there was no NEED to investigate “Russian connections”. In fact, it may be rather less than useful to make much of ANYTHING out of these “Russian connections”, which in fact, were much more in evidence with the Democrats than with the Trump campaign.
So the Democrats are left standing there with long faces, forcing them to immediately go into CYA mode, and try to MANUFACTURE a possible connection between the Trump World and the Russians. Which led to the “unmasking” of General Flynn because he was in phone conversations with the Russian Ambassador. Which could only be done by tapping into incoming calls to the Trump Tower.
It ain’t paranoia if they really are out to get you.
