The Russia collusion story is there to cover for the democrats. It was they who the Russians wanted to win. They wanted to avoid Trump! This story was made up after Trump won - so that when Russia and elections came up (as they knew would come up) there would be an explanation that did not finger the Dems.

The Podesta email leaks were from a DNC insider, not the Russians or Macedonians (this is why DNC won’t let anyone examine their computers).

After Trump’s “unexpected” win, Comey was their ace in the hole saving grace they thought. He would be able to pin the election cheating (that was sure to eventually come out) on Trump. Until he was outsmarted by Trump - likely most of available incriminating evidence against the Comey cabal (and exculpatory evidence for Trump) was secured when he fired Comey while Comey was away from D.C. and his office was raided.

So their first plan was to steal the election with voter fraud and any help they could get from the CIA, NSA, FBI, and State department spying on the Trump campaign.

The revised plan was to cover it all up and use Comey to frame Trump for a non-existent scheme that purportedly helped him win the election using Russian help - thereby neutering Trump and his ability to find them out. They got greedy here - they thought “what the heck...lets get Trump impeached too” - groupthink, hubris, myopia, whatever you want to call liberal ignorance allowed them to think it possible. But Comey got gone.

Their re-revised plan was to use Mueller et al to take up Comey’s tasks. Seems like the endless investigating and resisting is wearing on the public and the tide turns against Mueller et al. So they drop the Russian thing (they don’t want their own misdeeds to come to light so this works well) and switch to some kind of obstruction or investigating Trump’s kids... or _anything_ to keep Trump from uncovering the their crimes.

As it is now, no less than three separate investigations have begun in Congress over the last administration. I know Congressional investigations don’t themselves do much... but they do indicate an increasing appetite to go after the previous thugs...and likely mean future special counsels are being thought of - and the guilty ones don’t want that!

Impeachment is a political thing and politically, they’re not getting Trump. Special elections show that. So now the most recent re-re-revision is to drop any attack on Trump and instead focus on the survival of the special counsel because only that special counsel stands between Comey, Brennan, Lynch, Clinton, Yates and convictions and maybe jail.

I can’t wait for the next chapter.

MAGA

" ...foregone conclusion that Hillary was going to win"

The dimocrats were starting to talk up Russian interference before the election. I think they looked at it as a backup plan, if Hillary lost, they could blame the bad guys and maybe get the election thrown out, so made no effort to stop them.

Also, it would give them some talking points when someone mentioned their own cheating, illegal votes, etc.

Not a very good plan or a perfect theory, but we are talking about zero here.

Are these the same guys who proclaimed this kenyan half wit would be "The Smartest Guy Ever to Be President"?

Mueller is just as corrupt and 28 CFR 45,2 requires he disqualify himself.

You mean a flaw over and above the other two?

That he is not truly an American? (NO NBC here)
That he is a faux black man?

As DJT digs deeper, he will certainly add others to that growing list of flaws.

Yes, the LORD’s prints are found on this election process. HE heard our cries for help and those who prayed that he do so knew immediately this somewhat flawed mortal was chosen by HIM. Faith blossoms stronger faith.

Obama used the “Russian Hacking” as an excuse to spy on the opposition party during an election... plain and simple.

I love it!!! The Democrats just keep committing political suicide!!! Poor fools, just don’t get it, and neither does their lock-step moron media goons & gals!!!

Prediction: Loretta Lynch, Obama, Clinton, Sanders, Holder, Waters, Franken, the whole bunch of America traitors are being lined up to get their just due. I hope long prison turns for all them, including Bill Clinton.

IMHO...Bill Clinton was bad....but Obama was ten times worse...across the board!!! How any sane human being, Democrat or otherwise, can want this human vermin, butt wipe to campaign for them is behind objective reasoning....but Dems...be my guest!!!

What really gets me is that the so called main stream media refuses to talk about the content of the emails that the Russians supposedly hacked. The contents of Podesta’s emails and the collusion of the major networks with the hillary campaign was/is a bombshell that is never discussed.

Thanks, I do too.

Told DollyCali when she first used it that it was one being stolen for my own :-) So much is being said without words.

“It was inadequate. I think they could have done a better job informing the American people of the extent of the attack,” said Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.)

And Obama didn't even tell you or the rest of the members of Congress...Do you know why you faker??? Because there wasn't any attack...Not a scintilla of evidence...

For sure 0bama has done more for the Republicans than anyone since Ronald Regan. Just think if 0bama had been even a mediocre president many Democrat congress people would still be in office. 0bama was given 8 years to run the nation and that he did, right into the ground. The great experiment in an attempt to assuage the past racial issues was a colossal failure and thus the Democrats have to pay the price. With all of the media and government agencies helping the Democrats just could not cover up the failures of electing a inept president

Actually I remain unimpressed that Russia ever hacked.

Phishing for boobs who respond and willingly give up access is not “hacking”.

I really have not heard evidence of hacking. There is no evidence of who, what, where, when, how or why this deed is defined as Russia and no one else, no other country, just the political line “Russia did it” and “Hacking”.

The hell you say! Prove it to me. Since when do the rubes require no evidence whatsoever, expected to be told of a verdict with NO TRIAL.

Ridiculous.

I remain confused about emails.

The scandal was about the Podesta email catastrophe, inside the Clinton campaign, due to the boob who responded to an ordinary phishing attempt, cheerfully answering the attempt by opening the door to the safe.

The DNC email scandal is all about a verdict being handed out to the public, but with no evidence being delivered.

Was it Russia? Are they the only country in the whole wide world interested in US election outcomes? Not Merry Merkel?
Oh, no, of course not Merry Merkel. She is a friend to the nefarious globalists, to Hillary’s election and also to all those trying to convince the world that it was Russia’s fault.

Where IS the evidence??? I know, we rubes can not see it or hear of it because it would endanger national security, right?

We are getting a work over. Lawlessness is running amok, but we are hearing about phantoms in the internet with virtually no evidence to back any of it up, except for taking the word of some Deep State enemy passing a rumor off as fact.

BTW, in my comment, I was meaning no exasperation toward you personally, I hope you realize.
