    I'd like to know what a Trump/Russia collusion would look like. What does it even mean?

    Did Trump hack Podesta's emails?

    What's your conspiracy theory?

    Well the key phrase is conspiracy theory. Right now that is all that has been presented.

    Good thread. I am wondering how Russia persuaded 62 million people in 95% of the voting counties to vote for Trump to give him the electoral college but not the popular vote. That is some next level chess master shyt right there.

    I can accept Russia is capable of trying anything. What I don't understand is how Trump could've helped Russia.

    The only measure of collusion that I think could be uncovered, is if Trump, or some campaign member made an effort to coerce, or entice the Russians into releasing Clintons deleted emails. Though if Clinton maintains those were not related to states business, purely personal in nature, simply inquiring as to their existence seems short of the threshold. Clinton by proxy, compensated Russian operatives to surveil Trump, et al, while in Moscow. Comey is fully aware, and has the evidence (dossier) ... so apparently Comey has set the threshold extremely high for collusion.

    How would Trump know Russia has her emails? That's never been leaked by any intelligence agency.

    I am starting to think that the democrats are crafting this collusion theory in some vain attempt to keep the conversation away from the active collusion between the Clinton camp, the DNC, and the White house. Somehow they believe their preemptive strike will keep those facts out of the public domain. Unfortunately, there's this awesome thing called 4chan..... Ask why liberals are so quick to get passed Seth Rich and his murder?

    Well, there are so many examples of collusion. Donald Trump managed to dismantle the eastern European missile defense to help his Russian friends. Donald Trump made fun of Mitt Romney for saying Russia was an existential enemy of the United States, sending a signal to his Russian allies. Donald Trump had that hot mike exchange with the Russian president saying that he would be much more flexible dealing with the Russians after the election. Donald Trump was involved in that underhanded transfer, the so-called Uranium One deal, to help all his Russian buddies.

    Huh? What? Oh, sorry, I may have been mistaken here...

    Since everyone knew Hillary was a double dealing Democrat crook long before her emails proved it, it's likely that Hillary lost because Putin deleted campaign visits to rural PA, OH, MI and WI from Hillary's calendar.

    Seems there are "persons of interest" regarding this issue to the FBI in the White House.

    Kushner?

    Trump himself??

    Putin: Is in best interest of mother Russia to dump party responsible for mocking the idea that we are a threat, the bone headed reset button, the elimination of missile defence in enemy countries, and really great uranium contracts. Let us instead back the party of Reagan.

    Best case scenario: U.S. will build military and we will get that really difficult world war we've been hoping for. Soooo.. Win - win right my comrades?

    This is like the time that the collective blamed "the vast right wing conspiracy" for making Bill Clinton constantly cheat on his wife.

    Seth Rich is smoke without a fire, just like this Democrat witch hunt. Think: if they killed him while actively on his way to give info to Wikileaks, why not make it look like a robbery? Why not take the laptop which very likely has the incriminating evidence on it?

    The DEMS are pushing the Russia narrative as a political stunt, they view it as their answer to Emailgate. It's the same political strategy.

    It would look like the Russians instructing Wikileaks to release Podesta's emails at the same time as Trump's "grab their *****" recording came out, in an attempt to change the conversation. For example....

    My thought is that some Russian came to Trump and told him that they could help him solve all of Americas problems. And Trump took that deal.
    All he had to do was leave Russia alone. Hence all the positive views Trump has toward Russia.

    The thing i think people are missing, is Trump and the definition of words he uses.
    "Isn't saying someone cant do their job because of their race, racist?"
    Trump: No

    "Grabbing a women by per private parts sexual assualt?"
    Trump: NO

    "Bill O'Reilly getting fired and paying millions for sexual harassment?"
    Trump: He did nothing wrong.

    "Colluding with Russia during election?"
    Trump: No collusuion.

    What we need to know is, what is Trumps definition of collusion?

    He's a fan of the internet and Twitter. Only 300 million in the US knew this. Even people in trailer parks. If they had them, good chance Russia did. :grin:

    Assange did the ultimate ***** grabbing, and the left is utterly and completely unhinged over it. Wikileaks got the last laugh, Assange luffs the Skankipotimus as much as I do. :roflol:

    A theory is not needed. Intelligence has data. It will all come out in time and this will all be cleared up. Some may go to prison. Be patient.

    Is it like the time they claimed to have data on those WMD's in Iraq?

    Because they surely screwed that one up sky high. I will be patient but also say this fear mongering that I am seeing is BS until they actually start releasing meaningful data on the matter.

    Even then, it shouldn't be trusted at face value coming from the CIA. Because honestly they are loyal to themselves first and the people of the United states 2nd.

    It's all about money.
    Trump, Flynn, Manafort, Page, Stone, Kushner,...
    Have or want juicy loans, or real estate "gifts" from Russian oligarchs controlled by Putin. The deal is - cooperate and loans could be forgiven, more loans advanced, or even cushier real estate deals made. The cooperation involves pressing Putin's agenda - as Trump did with Brexit, plugging for LePen, denigrating Merkel, easing sanctions, basically weaken the EU, NATO, and spread the myth that Russia is not a threat.
    It is only reasonable to assume that the RNC was hacked, also, but that info was not leaked - don't cooperate with the Russians, and it would be.

    True.

    Which is exactly why the American public needs to see the entirety of Trump's tax returns.
