no, the theory is that russia, in one of many attempts to influence the outcome of the election and thinking the trump campaign more willing to be pro-russian, met with trump, tried to find out if they could get him to agree with dismantling russian sanctions, then laundered millions of dollars into the NRA as a way to donate uncapped and untraced into the campaign.


You would have to be pretty dim to buy into this theory. How much did the NRA give the Trump campaign? Less than 10 million? Less than half of one year of Trumps tax bill. This is what he sold out to Russia for? Common sense has gone out the window. Putin appreciates y'all giving him his goals as stated by our own IC, though.

Interesting. Are we going to ask to never take her to trial as well?



We all know the answer to that...

The timing of all these Russian spies released to the public at this time stinks to high heaven. The deep state is still alive and well.

the other indictments say that russian military cyberoperations known as the GRU hacked the DNC to provide fodder for the GOP campaign and trump's election


This might hold water EXCEPT they were also trying to infiltrate GOP/RNC.

Well that could be good, bad, or ugly. The ugly would be whoever she was fricking in the developmental stages of her work. If she gave up a little shot to DJT for instance it could be interesting...lol! But likely hookups with pols. The bad could be for the government and or the SC since her lawyer is gonna file all sorts of discovery. The good might be the SC produces some and or now they have a real live Russian to parade around. Now watch Putin pick up a couple of our pro's and German, French gals too. They need to pack quickly and leave Moscow. If we haven't already reeled 'em in.

No. I have no recollection of every conversing with you. You don't appear to make much of an impression. Perhaps you could get a little smarter and I can commit some of your theories to memory.

Link to that argument. Not that I doubt your memory, but I'd like to be precise on what we were discussing.

Which indictment has been issued linking trump to Russia? Just name one of them. Tia.

i'm not saying that the theory is true. the poster asked what the theory was. i explained it to him.

or met with trump through a third party, like say his son, paul manafort, and jared kushner.

except that if you hacked both parties, you could see which one would play ball.
you could say, hey, play ball with us. we'll take down your opponent AND keep your secrets safe.

bribery is made more possible with blackmail. that's just common sense.

that's not conjecture. that's normal logic. and i only offered it according it to the logic offered by the original poster.

it's positive and negative incentivization.

Was she arrested for not registering as a foreign agent or for something else?

A lot of orgs and lobbyists in DC fail to register as foreign agents. Aren’t people allowed to retroactively file FARA docs?

Do you believe more indictments are coming now? I sure as hell do. I wouldn't be surprised to get a few more in the next couple of weeks.

I’ve always wondered if this question was planted.

I have no idea. I'm not surprised by your hopes/expectations. What I am confident about is that trump will not be found guilty of any crime and he will be president for 6 more years. I am also confident that if there was a crime committed of the nature being alleged...it is far more likely the democrats are the guilty party.
