You do know that we only know a fraction of what went on with Russian interference.

What we aren't privy to yet is a huge iceberg under the water. As Malcolm Nance said this morning on AM Joy with Joy Reid in reference to Russian interference in this election: "What did Trump know and when did he know it?"

Like Howard Baker's famous question during the Watergate hearings: "What did the President know, and when did he know it?"

And here we are again, only now the Traitor Trump was colluding with the Russian government.

but i think not only have they supported him, but that they chose him long ago as a patsy.
paul manafort was probably sent to blow up his skirt, and get him on the bus in the first place.

There'd be no upside to keeping him in the loop, and plenty of potential downside since he doesn't really have a restraining bolt and might have spilled the beans. He liked Putin plenty just because he thought Putin had said nice things about him.

His advisers had plenty of ties to Russia without needing to involve Trump.

Honestly I don't think they did it to get Trump in... I think they would have done this no matter who was running against Hillary... I think this may Be more about getting even with the clintons than anything Trump.... hey if Cruz was running or Captain Kangaroo I think this still would have happened.... the clintons have pissed off a lot of people around the world... I'm just looking at it from a different angle......
