President Donald Trump may not alert the FBI if foreign governments offered damaging information against his 2020 rivals during the upcoming presidential race, he said, despite the deluge of investigations stemming from his campaign's interactions with Russians during the 2016 campaign.
Asked by ABC News Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos in the Oval Office on Wednesday whether his campaign would accept such information from foreigners -- such as China or Russia -- or hand it over the FBI, Trump said, "I think maybe you do both."

I don’t believe in a million years any of the dims would not listen to dirt on him if offered. No matter who offers it. When they don’t have any they are quick to make it up.
Who knows with all the dims dabble in he might be told things they are up to that could jeopardize the security of our country, our people, things he needs to be aware of. They have shown they are not above that.
Every morning is like Christmas morning.
Trump is in a situation where one would say the msm is “gonna BASH him if he does and BASH him if he doesn’t”
on EVERYTHING.
So might as well have fun :)
Hillary paid money for it. Why would anyone not listen?
Yeah, OK, but would he hire a company to hire a former British spy to write a phony dossier based on non-existent Russian contacts claiming ridiculous smears against his opponent and turn that over to the FBI?
That’s what I wanna know!
You mean like Hillary did except she paid off the foreign informant with money laundered through her lawyer (kind of like what they accused Trump of doing with his Stormy Daniels payment)
If anyone is claiming that, they are obviously lying.
It would knock all the mediot heads off if Trump told them he was considering paying a private investigative firm to contract with foreign intelligence agents to dig up dirt on his democrat opponents. Since the Steele dossier is exactly that, and Mueller didnt think it was worth investigating, it must be okay.

I suspect Stephanopoulos is less concerned with possible information coming to Trump from China or Russia than he is with potential information that the Italian, Australian and/or U.K. governments could easily give him.
In fact, Adam Schiff-for-brains, thought he was talking ot Russians who were telling him they had nude pictures of Trump, etc. Shifty was almost orgasmic at the possibility. Turns out he was being pranked.
It's the same with taking bribes - DC has a ‘legal’ way to do it.
Of course he’d take the intel. In fact, I believe he would be obligated to do so. If there was valid negative intel on a Presidential candidate it would need to be investigated, evaluated, and possibly made public *prior* to that person being elected. It would be stupid beyond belief to entrust the highest office in the land to someone susceptible to foreign influence.
I know. Every day there’s something new to like. I didn’t even see this one coming.
Troll farm
The only difference, Trump admits it.
*clutches pearls *
He also said he would listen to what they had to say then decide if it merited notifying the FBI or other agencies. That’s a perfectly logical decision and one I highly doubt ANY world leader would not do it the same way. Besides...people screen who even gets to talk to the President. It’s not like anyone can pick up the phone and gossip!
Trolling, Trolling, Trolling!
