What about intent ?

It doesnt matter at all to you?

The purpose (why he went to meet with russians) was to get dirt, so he could use it, and effect the election.

That is collusion.

 

He himself has admitted to it, in a tweet. He knowingly went to get dirt, from the russians on Hilary.

So what is it when the media gets dirt on people and publishes it? How about if  a candidate sought to get dirt on Hillary from another American? Dirt is dirt, it doesnt matter where it comes from as long as it can be proven true or false.  The intent was to damage Hillary and help Trump, if Hillary has nothing to hide as she says than no dirt can be unearthed and we have no story.

Theres a differnce between a american journalist, that through legal means discovers something they thinks the public needs to know.

And a Russian agent, maybe looking to trade favors, by handing over damageing information, in order to win a election, for a person they approve off to be set in place of power.

 

Outside's sources arnt supposed to determine/effect american elections, and your not supposed to meet with them to do so.

Trump Jr admits to doing so.

He showed up at a meeting, to get intel, hopeing that it would help them win a election.
