SaintsInDome2006 420 Posted October 27, 2017 Wow, way to ignore my questions. I mean, you didn't even address my question about the Democrats, and only tangentially answered my questions about Hitlery. As far as the Republican goes, AFAIK he only had them doing research. I haven't heard that he is connected to the Dossier. Link? I didn't mean to ignore your questions, I will take another look. No the GOP candidate would not have been connected to the dossier. But I take it that the outcome of the work don for the GOP means that Fusion could do good, appropriate, needed work when called upon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IMMensaMind 462 Posted October 27, 2017 Ok aside from various details there.... you're saying the GOP and the DNC are in this together then? No, not really; the assertion is too broad - but I can't explain what I really mean unless I give you some detail. There are members of both parties who are not privy, and not involved. They're the idealists. Some - dependent upon what characteristics they display once elected - are drafted into this effort. I'm saying that leadership in both parties is complicit, and other high-ranking members, and I'm also saying that the real discreants - those who have engaged in something illegal - appear to be nearly exclusively Democrat this time around. I think this globalist ideology is collectivist at its core, and as such finds much more commonality in the Left than it does the Right. This infiltration into both parties explains why the DEMs have moved harshly left - the battle between Progressives and Blue Dogs is over, in favor of Progressives - and why, simultaneously, the GOP has also moved left - having waged their own battle (TEA Party v moderates) as a consequence of people who campaign conservative but are actually even more liberal than moderates continue to fool voters. People like John McCain and Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan. These are Bob Dole tax and spend moderates, and they shunt real conservativism - fiscal mainly - at every turn. This is a globalist/control thing. The existence of the US represents - as it often has, historically - the single largest force in opposition to tyranny. Co-opting it has long been an agenda of America haters. Of collectivists (communists, socialists, fascists, etc). There is nothing more tyrannical than globalism: it is literally 'one-world government'. No refuge. No 'shining beacon on the hill' for 'tired and hungry masses'. I believe Trump's rise to the Presidency took place for one major reason: millions of people who believe something similar to what I believe have reacted to this encroaching threat to our sovereignty; to our freedoms. It's clear that this agenda is increasing in its brazenness and pace. 'Drain the Swamp' is the sloganed representation of the belief of opposition to this threat. People like me believe that our Government is being corrupted to tighten the net of control over our population; to grant access to our way of life by forces interested in overturning it, and that means the need to create chaos and unrest as a way to increase Government power. There are many facets to this effort, including continuing the decades long effort to condition Americans to believe that removing guns from private hands is in our best interest; to believe that it is immoral to in any way restrict the nature of people emigrating to America; to think that 'the rich' don't pay enough while the poor are victims. Creating special interest victims groups has been part of that effort to divide and conquer (all to increase the breadth of power of Government), and thus the ability of these 'Establishment' people to actually call all the shots, and render voting more of a symbolic exercise of freedom than an actual mechanism to ensure it. Naturally, collectivists will oppose what I'm saying; they're invested in this idyllic notion of Utopia. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Strike 5,265 Posted October 27, 2017 I didn't mean to ignore your questions, I will take another look. No the GOP candidate would not have been connected to the dossier. But I take it that the outcome of the work don for the GOP means that Fusion could do good, appropriate, needed work when called upon. I don't know what the point of this comment is. No one is saying Fusion GPS can't do good work or even that it's a problem that Hitlery/Dems hired them. I think I made that clear in my first post to you. However, when they use the Dossier to roast Trump without acknowledging that they funded it that's a problem. Why won't you acknowledge that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SaintsInDome2006 420 Posted October 27, 2017 I just want to be sure I answer your questions. Simple. No one is blaming a candidate for trying to dig up dirt on their opponent. But apparently the GOP person quit after Trump won the nomination. That makes sense. But then Hitlery and the Dems continued funding the research. So be it. Same argument. Can't complain about that. But then they had this report made and it somehow ended up being used by the government to help justify their investigation of Trump. The Dems and Hitlery touted it as being some smoking gun WITHOUT revealing that they had financed it. That's where the problem lies. Don't you think the Dems and Hitlery were obligated to acknowledge their role in the creation of the report? ... Well it's been known since May that the Hillary campaign took over the project from the GOP candidate. Now we know Elias actually commissioned it. As I alluded to in my prior answer I think yes it's possible the Hillary campaign is being cute in their response in that they don't consider Elias part of "the campaign." Now Hitlery even says she didn't know she helped finance it. Do you actually believe that? I also think I answered that one. - It's possible, but not likely. Otoh I think that Hillary as former SOS probably had general awareness of Trump's past Russian contacts stretching over 30 years, and for that matter I'm guessing the GOP candidate who initiated the project did as well. It seems to me to be a natural part of why the project was started in the first place. But should Hillary herself be required to acknowledge if she knew of it and personally ordered it? No, I don't think so. First of all it doesn't matter in that the dossier is not proof of anything. Secondly Mueller is investigating this thing down to the bolts so I think he will nail down every detail of how the dossier came to be commissioned. However again, the dossier itself is proof of nothing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SaintsInDome2006 420 Posted October 27, 2017 NM. In September 2015, as the Republican primary campaign was heating up, he was hired to compile an opposition-research dossier on Donald Trump. Who wrote the check? Simpson, always secretive, won’t reveal his client’s identity. However, according to a friend who had spoken with Simpson at the time, the funding came from a “Never Trump” Republican and not directly from the campaign war chests of any of Trump’s primary opponents. ...So he found Democratic donors whose checks would keep his oppo research going strong. - April, 2017. - That would be Marc Elias.

Filthy Fernadez 2,696 Posted October 27, 2017 The Republican who hired GPS was trying to get valid dirt on Trump.

Sitting next to Podesta during the interview: his attorney Marc Elias, who worked for the law firm that hired Fusion GPS to continue research on Trump on behalf of the Clinton campaign and DNC, multiple sources said.

wiffleball 4,788 Posted October 27, 2017 First: As regards the thread title - Trump is CURRENTLY ACTIVELY helping the Russians by refusing to enact the Congressionally approved sanctions against Russia. It's not theoretical - it's happening RIGHT NOW. There's no debate. The DNC "Whataboutism" is exactly that - But doesn't change the facts at hand right now. ________________________- Remember that meeting with the Russians and TrumpCo that "never happened"? - Until it was proven that it DID happen. THEN it was just DonJr and one other person?- Until it was prove?n there were a bunch of TrumpCo's TOP campaign staffers there? But But, it was just 'puffery' - they ended up talking about 'meaningless' Russian Adoption law?"- Until it was proven that no, no they didn't. They talked about some pretty 'meaningful' stuff. - - INCLUDING asking for HRC emails. And information to skew the election for Trump. - But but, there was no Collusion to skew the election. Except there indeed was. But But - These were just INDIVIDUALS - NOT Connected to Putin. OH SNAP! Breaking news tonight: Turns out, the Russian Lawyer Chick was in repeated lengthy pre-briefing meetings with Putin's own hand-picked Prosecutor. AND - WAIT FOR IT! - Despite the fact that Congress has passed significant restrictions upon Russia for meddling - Trump is currently refusing to enact those sanctions.- Which is exactly what Russia was trying to get in exchange for dirty on HRC.- But but there was no "tit for tat"! - Until there obviously was as Trump steadfastly refuses to enact legally imposed sanctions. SOooo.... If Don Jr repeats under oath the false crap that he's stated on camera to Fox to Congress Under Oath? MAJOR Perjury immediately without any further investigation needed.
