Yeah, the tariffs are absolutely idiotic.

And it's not just academic theory. Has anyone tried to buy any lumber lately? Terrible.

While I agree in general, it is kind of funny that the Dems are finally concerned with people becoming 'dependent on welfare', as stated in their little meme here.

"Michael Cohen, President Donald Trump's former personal attorney, claims that then-candidate Trump knew in advance about the June 2016 meeting in Trump Tower in which Russians were expected to offer his campaign dirt on Hillary Clinton, sources with knowledge tell CNN. Cohen is willing to make that assertion to special counsel Robert Mueller, the sources said."

All that is a big whuptedo but it has already been determined that the meeting turned out to be with a Russian lawyer who was interested in how the foreign adoptions laws worked in the United States. It seems as though she has a personal interest in the system. So even if Trump knew about the meeting so what?

Yeah, I think we already knew/heard that someone, Kushner or Donald Jr or Eric, heard that a Russian source "may have" dirt on Clinton, so they went to meet with the source, but then it turned into nothing.

The bigger question is, if someone says "I have dirt on your political opponent, come meet with me and I'll tell you (and presumably want something in return)," is that breaking a law?

The media's main job, it seems, is to dig up dirt on (Republican) political candidates. Are they all guilty of treason?

Yep. My take is there is nothing illegal in having engagements with sources that offer information on a campaign opponent. What is bothersome to me is how quickly this kind of information about negative connotations on Trump finds it’s way to the media that was in the hands of the Special prosecutor or DOJ.

Conversely the Congressional oversight Committee can’t get documents from these same people without most of it being redacted beyond recognition when they finally get it. This tells me that the Justice Department top officials are also involved in manupliting and controlling the information that reaches the media.

Early on I think Brennan and Clapper were leaking the information through people who would unmask the information. They had the security clearances to access the information and were the vechicle for delivery until a Special Proscutor was in place to keep everything sequestered. It will take a while but I believe eventually it will all be sorted out and the success will be dependent on whether the Oversight committee can prevail against the GOP detractors.

:lol

This guy has NO PROBLEM with foreign countries offering information to politicians on political opponents.

It is more bothersome that the fucking media finds out about it.

Are you fucking kidding me, COMRADE?

It bothers me when the information is leaked from the Justice Department because it reeks of corruption at the highest levels of our Justice system to manipulate the outcomes of investigations. Save your Comrade for your Socialistic buddies.

When you find someone of a foreign country that offered information let me know. The information was adoption laws.

Funny how bipo is thinking that he’s so morally and ethically superior to LT here, yet just a couple days ago he openly admitted to being perfectly fine with some illegal shit as long as it hurt Trump.

Does anybody take this useless hypocrite seriously about anything?

Hillary Clinton pays British MI-6 agent to dig up dirt on Trump, and a dossier used against Trump is actually produced --> Just fine.

Donald Trump meets with a Russian businessperson who called him offering information, nothing comes of it --> TREASON!!!!!

Listen, everyone knows there are parts of the Steele dossier that are correct. The Russians hated Clinton and wanted Trump to win. The Russians hacked the DNC email servers.

But until I see where Trump conspired with them to steal the emails or otherwise break laws, I don't see a smoking gun. I see Russia meddling and Trump accepting information. I also see Clinton accepting information from foreign sources.

So.... you know.... everybody here is a fucking dirtbag. Got it.

Also, it's not exactly groundbreaking that Hillary Clinton was a fucking scumbag. I didn't need the Russians hacking into her emails to tell me not to vote for her, and neither did most other Americans; so until there is some more definitive proof, I am not convinced that Russian meddling actually cost her the election. It's entirely speculative, but newsflash, most people already hated her.

But most Americans that voted did want her to win.

That's why she got like 2 million more votes than Trump.

But ya know, sparsely populated swaths of land count more than people.

And yet they want to leave America and form their own country. All because they lost one election.
