By your timeline where does DNC/Clinton fit in? I remember the allegations that 4Chan user made up the silly accusations and passed them to Wilson. If that is the case where does Steele and Fusion GPS come in? Or are there two different theories and timelines?
Damn that McCain! Tomorrow will be the 50th anniversary of his being shot down in his A-4 Skyhawk. I get mixed emotions when I think of it...then and now.
Scumbag McCain bump for later.....
McCain will be found to be one of the funders of the Dossier. He is hell bent on hurting Trump.
We can expect Trump to be true to his word... gee look at all that news breaking about Russia and uranium and money and Hillary...
Oh, BTW, can you say "ISIS", "Hamas", or "Muslim Brotherhood"?
Nicely said!
God works in mysterious ways...
Funny how no Bush money is tied to this
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Itc was reported way back that the original seed money that resulted in the trump dossier was planted by yeb bush connections.
And I think this is why a lot of people voted for Trump, both republican and democrat. He was already wealthy, so hopefully less susceptible to financial corruption. He was not a politician, and therefore less likely to already have a lot of dirt or any thoughts of future political aspirations which could be used to constrain or control him.
The bottom line is that The Swamp is so incredibly corrupt, so filled with people of low integrity, decency, and sense of honor or duty (to anyone but themselves), that only a complete outsider like Trump, and a very focused, driven and powerful person like Trump, could even begin to make a difference. The beauty of Trump is how he baits these people, and gets them to expose themselves for the despicable, self-serving, corrupt vermin that they are.
As someone else posted on another thread recently, you could draw 535 citizen's names at random, and have a much more honest, decent, trustworthy, intelligent, and respectable Congress than we have had in decades. It will be interesting to see where we are as a country in 20 years, what sort of politicians we have, etc. I wonder how much of a difference Trump can make. In just a couple of years as a candidate and President, Trump has already achieved an incredible amount in exposing the corruption of The Swamp - not that we didn't already know or suspect much of it, though I think a lot of people are shocked at just how bad it really is. He has also helped to draw out and expose the corrupt media (again, many of us knew how biased and deceptive the media was, but I think a lot more people have become aware of it now as well).
I can't help but wonder if the country just saved itself by electing Trump (much as it saved itself by electing Reagan after Carter). It is hard to imagine how much further down the drain a President Hillary would have taken us. Are we out of the woods? Hardly. But at least I have a bit more hope that things might change for the better. If nothing else, seeing vermin like McCain, Corker, and Flake exposed for what they really are, has been a pleasure.
Ditto.
Excellent description of McCain, post 25.
He was a rotten little kid, spoiled brat, who never grew up.
The reason he even got shot down and became a POW, is because he disobeyed orders and flew too low.
Excellent description of McCain, post 37 (not 25... got my numbers mixed up)
This started as a GOPe money project to keep Trump from getting the GOP nomination
The DNC wanted Trump to get the nomination
Thought he was the least threat to Hillary
Now they are saying Manafort worked for Podesta
Plausible but if so Manafort sure came across as a sincere Trump supporter
Manafort may have actually been a Trump mole in the Podesta camp. We'll have to see.
Pictured: Manafort, Stone, and Atwater.
Google them, if you don't know who they are. Let's just say all RNC and the pic is ~ 45 years old.
FReegards!
The Podestas had a big multi year contract with the Russians way predating Trumps political career - to lobby against sanctions imposed after Crimea - its plausible Manafort would have had the contacts and expertise to be involved
All of this was on the up-and- up except possibly the Podestas did not register as foreign lobbyists ...
Keep in mind the Congress and FBI and Deep State ( which is invested in backing the corrupt Ukraine government as a proxy vs Russia) all went after General Lynch for doing similar legal consulting work to lobby for favorable US policy toward foreign interests - including for Turkey
All legal but required disclosure
“Rino stooge John McCain
No communist collaborator John McCain.”
....and ISIS collaborator.
Did McLame turn the dossier over to anyone else? To Donald Trump?
So John went from Republican Senator to Democrap delivery Boy!
Counting down to that moment McStain goes room temperature.
