This is a disgrace!#DrainTheSwamp pic.twitter.com/UfbKEECm2V — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 11, 2017 Remember what O' once said while he was President?

It's funny how Trump talked so much about rigging election and asked Russians to hack DNC/Clinton. Both came to fruition coincidentally when no one ever suspected of such things to happen. 

Remember, dems asked James Comey head for mishandling the investigation like anyone would. However, Barack Obama didn't think it was wise because there was still an ongoing investigation and such act would seem like an obstruction of justice. Especially, after Comey asked for more resources to investigate the Russian collusion.

Well yeah, people don't really care about voting. Hillary got around 28.5%. Both are hardly impressive, but when turnout is barely 50%, thats what you get.

This only happened in your head, no Russians hacked any election in the USA. Obama promised that while he was President.

Also funny, Colbert's audience cheers Comey's firing, so he had to speedily correct their opinions

(No wonder they needed new instruction, who can remember if we are at war with Eastasia at this time?)

Can you prove it didn't happen? It's still under investigation and Trump has a history with Russian mob and oligarchs.

‘Well, we don’t rely on American banks. We have all the funding we need out of Russia.’ I said: ‘Really?’ And he said: ‘Oh, yeah. We’ve got some guys that really, really love golf, and they’re really invested in our programs. We just go there all the time.’- Eric Trump

Taking down a president is a tricky situation.  For one they cannot go directly at him until they have enough proof.  What they can do is first go after his people and if they have enough proof they commited a crime see if they can get them to role over on him.  Just because there is no proof whether Trump himself was working with the Russians does not mean there isn't movement on the people under him.  The fact that Comey was seeking more resources to go deeper and also has a grand jury sending out subpeonas means they are activly going after Flynn.  If you believe if Flynn has something on Trump he will not role if faced with a lot of prison time you are kidding yourself.  His lawyer is already asking for immunity which is probably standard protocal but things get very difficult if the Justice department get any leverage.  One thing is clear about the justice department is that they are not fast but they can be very through and once they are on your butt they will continue until made to stop.   The first salvo Trump did was to fire Comey to make them stop and thus look even more gulity of something.  It might have nothing to do with Russia but it definitely has something to do with him not wanting this investigation to go further and reveal some real dirt he is hidding.

That is an incredibule naive view.  Misinformation or even just taking small bits of infomation out of context is a powerful tool to control the media and people thinking.  To believe that the targeted leaks from Wiki-Leaks on the DNC and Hillary but nothing on Trump and the RNC isn't information warfare is to totally ignore history.  Also this isn't the media painting Trump working with Russia, its Trump own people who were in contact with Russia operatives during the election that is being investigated.  Do not forget it's Turmp who had to fire 2 people in his group that were actively speaking about stuff they should not and that is Manafort and Flynn.  Very high up people in his own org who probably not speaking to Russian Operatives just out of their own self interest.

The quote is made up by a third person based "on recollection", it is fake news to ascribe it to Don Jr. Here is what he really said:

“It’s a recollection from some guy three years ago through a third person,” Eric Trump said, adding it’s “categorically untrue.” “We own our courses free and clear. We have zero ties to Russian investors,” he insisted.

A new government has the right to reassign positions. And regarding Russia, why shouldn't the two countries come along better in the future. It would be a win-win situation not only for both coutries but also for the rest of the world. If talking to Russia is against the law, that law needs to be changed.

‘Well, we don’t rely on American banks. We have all the funding we need out of Russia.’ That hypothetical Eric Trump statement is not farfetched.

US banks do not loan money to Trump. He goes to Deutsche Bank, which was fined $630 million for Russian money laundering in New York, Moscow and London branches. They were also demanded by Feds, $14 billion for their toxic mortgage that contributed to economic slump in 2007. He feels right at home.

Also:

There, indeed, was an FBI wiretap involving Russians at Trump Tower.

But it was not placed at the behest of Barack Obama, and the target was not the Trump campaign of 2016. For two years ending in 2013, the FBI had a court-approved warrant to eavesdrop on a sophisticated Russian organized crime money-laundering network that operated out of unit 63A in Trump Tower in New York.

The FBI investigation led to a federal grand jury indictment of more than 30 people, including one of the world’s most notorious Russian mafia bosses, Alimzhan Tokhtakhounov. Known as the “Little Taiwanese,” he was the only target to slip away, and he remains a fugitive from American justice.

Seven months after the April 2013 indictment and after Interpol issued a red notice for Tokhtakhounov, he appeared near Donald Trump in the VIP section of the Miss Universe pageant in Moscow. Trump had sold the Russian rights for Miss Universe to a billionaire Russian shopping mall developer.

Its only a win win if both come together as equals.  If one has leverage over the other then the one with the leverage gets what they want while the other gets a boot on the back of their neck.  What you are not getting is that if Trump actually has to pay a debt to Russia for helping him get into office and stay there then he becomes their patsy.  If he is obligated by finacial ties to Russia then he is in their back pockets.  

The key you are missing is not talking to Russia but talking to Russia operatives before you become president.  Talking to them about sanctions that leave billion dollar deals on the table that help you finanically.  These things are illegal because they suggest you are making back room deals that help you but not the American public.  It means that you have finanical ties outside of your job as president or any top level government position that can influence your decisions on anything dealing with Rusian interest.  This is why those rules are in place.
