An overseas enemy struck at the core of the republic—and it succeeded. Trump and his minions helped and encouraged this attack by engaging in secret contacts with Moscow and publicly insisting no such assault was happening. This is far bigger than a bribe, a break-in, or a blow job. And, worse, the United States remains vulnerable to such a strike.
Yet the full impact of this scandal does not resonate in the daily coverage and discourse. In many ways, the media presents the Russia scandal mostly as a political threat to Trump, not as a serious threat to the nation. And many Americans, thanks to Trump and his allies, view it as a charade. All this shows how easy it is for disinformation and demagoguery to distort reality. That is a tragedy for the United States. For Trump—and Putin—that is victory.

Bill Clinton took massive contributions from China and no one said a word. What is this idiot talking about?
LOL
EXACTLY. There are people out there who actually believe this crap. To them it is like a cult where they hear their talking points, and then they repeat them thinking they are smart. Actually I have been around a group fo them up in Boston who were telling each other how smart they are, and yet they were just plain nuts.
Yep those Facebook Ad’s really switched my vote LOL.
The left are just plain nuts .

Haha..I bet I got you beat by a few candles!
You got that right. Just visit DUmmies.

It seems to me that the previous criminal enterprise was fully aware of what was happening, to the point of assigning spies to infiltrate the republican presidential candidate’s campaign, but they were so certain that the fix was in, there was no reason to do anything about it?
The REAL question is how much did the Russians pay, and to whom, in the Obama/Clinton criminal enterprise? We know they got 20% of America’s uranium reserves. How much was paid and to whom?

I know...I was going to vote for Bernie, and then Hillary...But the Ruskies brainwashed me into voting for Trump...It ain’t right...
Isn’t the idea of spycraft to “get the goods” on a candidate and then BLACKMAIL them once they are in power?
The FBI has reported that Hillaries emails were hacked by up to 6 entities but not yet been made public.
So it would be to Russia’s interest to get Hillary elected, not to mention she’d slap the regs on oil production so they’d make millions more if she had of one.
Also, how the heck did the Russians know Trump had a chance? Do they have their own polling firms in the US? Because if they thought Trump had a chance, they are practically the ONLY ones...
Cornholio, grabber of women, weighs in...
