Cdub100 3,851 Posted July 12, 2017 Section B: Contributions and donations by foreign nationals in connection with elections. A foreign national shall not, directly or indirectly, make a contribution or a donation of money or other thing of value, or expressly or impliedly promise to make a contribution or a donation, in connection with any Federal, State, or local election. Hmm. "Other thing of value". Well, there goes your monetary argument. The meeting was about adoption. https://mobile.twitter.com/DonaldJTrumpJr/status/884789839522140166 Oops. There goes that one too. Ice up son Other things that actually have value, like gold, silver, stocks, bonds etc... Information about a criminal activity does not hold value. But you know what? Lets play your fantasy game. Lets say the documents hold value. In order to hold value they would HAVE to be TRUE. Do you have any idea what that means? That means the Democratic nominee for president conducted illegal activities with the Russian government. That Hillary Clinton is a criminal and should be investigated and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. In order to hold value those documents would have to prove she, while acting as secretary of state betrayed the american people for her own gain. That is what it means in your fantasy world to hold value. As I said everyone already knows she's crooked. If you truly believe those supposed documents hold value (which they don't) than you believe HRC is an enemy of the state. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wiffleball 4,788 Posted July 12, 2017 Other things that actually have value, like gold, silver, stocks, bonds etc... Information about a criminal activity does not hold value. Again, not really sure why you make pronouncements like you know WTF you're talking about. This has already been addressed - on both fronts: 1) Campaigns routinely hire outside firms to do Op Research. Those firms are paid tens and hundreds of thousands of dollars for exactly the kind of information that was being teased. - Bam- value. End of story on that. 2) No, the information doesn't have to be 'true', merely plausible. (See: Trump piss memos) 3) But, in THIS case? The mere fact (and Junior has already admitted it) that Trump Sr. Advisors met in the QUEST for negative information - is more than enough. Your simple-minded defense (wherever you got it) is equivalent to - "Well, I went to get a blowjob from a hooker - but she only gave me a handy!" Doesn't matter. - But hey, keep talking about of your ass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

naomi 356 Posted July 12, 2017 I've thought that if there was Russian interest and engagement in getting the Donald elected, it would be for the purpose of destabilization. It would for it to be a scandal. It wouldn't be for alliance sake. Russia would not be embarrassed; Putin would just be getting ready to move the next chess piece. So if this lady was working on behalf of Russian government players, offering no dirt ultimately, but ensnaring people close to the candidate for a slow game payout...nice work? Can't help but look at Russia with Yuri Bezmenov's perspective. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sho Nuff 720 Posted July 12, 2017 This is my first post in this 19 page thread. What have we discovered thus far? There are multiple Trump officials that met with Russian officials and did not disclose the meetings and then also lied about the meetings every chance they got. Including meetings to discuss sanctions (Flynn) and now Information on Hillary. The bar has moved from there was no contact...to the contact isn't collusion...to "is collusion even illegal". Comey fired, Yates fired...Trumps own Deputy AG appointing special counsel (because his AG needed to recuse himself). Special counsel has put together an all star team of investigators and litigators. But it's all nothing. Had half of this happened with hillary or Obama the usual idiots would be crying bloody murder. Now...it just doesn't matter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

titans&bucs&bearsohmy! 2,745 Posted July 12, 2017 The guy in charge is getting investigated, pretty thorough. This is more of a philosophical question. Why has Obama and Hillary escaped scrutiny on this matter? Beats me. Trump rarely confides in me on such matters. If I had to guess, I would say someone smart told him that the optics would be horrible and look like political retribution. But again, don't know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

12th Man 884 Posted July 12, 2017 Trump jr being set up. It's quite clear. Three red flags: 1. Veselnitskaya wasn't even supposed to be in US during time of meeting. How was it that she was granted access to stay longer by Obama? 2. She has strong ties to planned parenthood. Who else has strong ties to planned parenthood? Hint: she's a nasty woman. 3. Why was Veselnitskaya in congressional hearing meetings with Obama's ambassador to Russia? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
