General Discussion

there hasn't been much said, about the HUMONGOUS amount of Russian Oligarch money, that was FILTERED right in front of everyone's eyes, thru the PHONY Russian branch of the NRA to the U.S. NRA, and then disturbed to Trump campaign funds and down ballot Republican races in the 2016 election........
The down ballot funds would certainly to a long way in explaining a lot to why the Republican Senators and House Members and Republican Governors have backed Trump, due to the fact that if anyone investigated, they all would be thrown out of office, along with Trump for knowingly accepting money from a foreign (enemy) government for their campaigns........
And why they are ALL in lock step with everything Trump's CABAL is doing.......All Trump/Putin would have to do is to say to them:
If you all take down Trump, YOU all are going down. As well as the mass of Kompromat Putin had on all of them, thanks in part to help from Jefferey Epstein and others.
Look no further than Lindsey Graham, who openly was bad mouthing Trump, even after the 2016 election, until Trump invited Graham up to his golf club and Graham rolled over on a dime and the next day was singing Trump praises non-stop. I can only imagine that Putin sent Trump an 8 x 10 Color Glossy of Graham doing something un-thinkable with a young male which Putin had provided.......Graham was suddenly appearing in Defense of Trump in the impeachment hearings.....
