Based on what I’ve read and seen I think he(GP)was a plant too. Although I’m not sure why GP lied to the FBI.
I don’t think he went off on his own to single out the Russians and emails. Someone was backing him - not the Trump Campaign - to go down the road he did.
Also, an angle I’ve not heard yet related to the uranium deal to why it was sold to the Russians. But did the Russians BRIBE someone to make the deal?
Donations totaling $145 million to the Clinton Foundation (slush fund) dont count as bribes. But they have the same effect. Same as a half million for one speech. It is sickening.
