Explain to me what's wrong with a President elect...

having communication with a Russian diplomat through a third party?
The President is an international delegate.
I hated when Hannity and the butt pirate Repubs in the tank with anything that fits with the Republican Party's ideologies criticized Obama for shaking someone's hand and claimed this meant Obama was a Muslim terrorist or rapist or whatever they claimed.
Why are communications with Russia justification for an FBI investigation? I'd hope the President elect is communicating with one of the three most powerful countries in the world during the lame duck period.
Russia is more in line with US ideology than China. WTF is the FBI even doing? Russia going to nuke us? A bunch of paranoia about Russia is retarded.
Why lie about communicating with Russia? I wouldn't have cared if Trump or Hillary campaigned in Moscow.

The problem with the communications is that they all denied having contacted them.
Beyond that: it's not normal for a head of state to have that sort of relationship with another government. And it sure as hell isn't normal to a head of state to have a relationship with an enemy.

Why question it? What does it even mean? So he communicated with Russia. Ok. He's the president elect. Since when is communicating with a delegate from a foreign country grounds for an FBI investigation?
It's propaganda to claim Russia is a major threat to our country's safety.

This way of thinking right here is why the human race is in serious jeopardy of going extinct. The time for having "enemies" has to come to an end if humans are going to survive another one hundred years. Same old thinking leads to the same old results and problems.

Why are they an "enemy"? Because they spy on us? So does Italy. So does Germany.
Because Crimea? That part of Ukraine wanted to be part of Russia. 6 people died in the invasion. More die in a weekend in Chicago because of gang violence.
Why wouldn't I want a President with a relationship to another foreign country? This is a selling point. I should want a team with no connection to one of the most powerful countries in the World?

i'm sure you are OK with the above, since we are just nonchalant about it all, right?

In of itself, it's not. So why is he saying he didn't?

The question is the legal justification for an FBI investigation into Trump's ties to Russia. The evidence presented is circumstantial associations with Russia. It largely does not center into the DNC email investigation.
Even if he's connected to Russia, I don't understand what it would mean.

Great question. I don't think he's the sharpest tool in the shed. I don't understand hiding it either. I'd straight out say I communicated with Russia.

I can't figure it out. Go ask the Clinton Foindation. ??

Agreed. Based on the justification they have for an FBI investigation into Russia, thousands of people should be under investigation.

Enemy is overstated but they do behave like an organized crime syndicate and are generally bad actors in the international arena to say nothing of suppressing disent and eliminating domestic enemies.

I agree but what the heck do I know

Sounds like Crooked and her cronies.

i don't like Hillary either but that's an outrageous comparison.

Putin doesn't do petrodollar. Our masters, who control both the democrats and republicans, don't think it's kosher.

I agree they're a repressive society. So are many Asian and South American countries.

How could his proxies do it during the transition?
