I prefer a POTUS that doesn't constantly direct his subordinates to commit crimes on his behalf.

That entire redacted portion on Volume II/Part II/Section J/Number 3 is 100% Roger Stone, right?

Muller be saying Mr Kilimnik is a GRU officer and agrees with the FBI's conclusion on this.

Campaign manager giving polling data to a GRU officer with targeted data and specific states to target.

I mean I'm no Lawbros but surly this **** should be a chargeable offence.

It's as if people that are too lazy to inform themselves by reading source material rather than listen to a headline summary by the AG also get a vote and opinion in our society...

LOL at saying this non-ironically in 2019. Like you're out here dunking on us after this report was released, and even the heavily redacted part makes your guy and your team look awful. Take a few days and read the first 15 pages or so, and then come back and tell us about how awesome POTUS and THE BEST PEOPLE are.

Success is not an element to the charge of obstruction. I forget the specific wording but basically trying is enough. Of course not really expecting CP to understand that.

To me one of the most interesting takes is Trump’s biggest fears had to do with his campaign basically implying as much as there were many misdeeds covered up there. Trump was terrified the FBI would thoroughly investigate his campaign shenanigans.

If a movie came out five years ago with this scenario playing out, it would be panned by everyone for being so ridiculous.

I realize this is Chiefsplanet and stupid people post there and idk why you and Trolly do in light of that fact BUT if the dullard who wrote that is right (he isn't), he's basically admitting that Trump did obstruct justice when he fired Comey.

This dovetails nicely with Trump’s written answers.

I'm still not very clear how this conspiracy didn't happen. The Trump side was willing, the Russians presumably were willing but somehow it didn't happen?

Equally confusing that the pee tape is both real and not real

It DID happen

Trumps got the emailz

Russians got easing of sanctions.
(Or not even signing them into law)

Months ago. We all knew this was the trade off

It was treason then. It’s treason now

Seems like the best guess is that it did happen, but we only have info on the part in the conspiracy that was run by complete ****ing morons, and what the Russians involved did and said isn't known.
