I know there are a lot of people who will make a show of believing him when he says it was about nothing, but I don't believe there are any smart people left who would take anything a Trump said at face value.
If the meeting really was about nothing, then Putin set Trump up just to see how dumb he was. I think it's more sad than funny how colossally stupid and inept he is.

Anyone else feel like if Hillary won right now Republicans would be trying to impeach her over something and she would be blaming fake news much like Trump but in her own way. 57 would be doing all the denying and defending instead of all the Russiar threads.
Also, remember that time China tried to influence our elections in favor of the Clintons?

It’s over."

Do the people on the left actually care that the Russians tried to "interfere?"
Haven't they done it every election?
Doesn't the US to it as well?
doesn't other countries?
Isn't this just a big which hunt?
even if the answer is yes to all of the above something new and different did happen this past election that should be of concern to all of us and needs to be thoroughly inestigated...im not going to explain what it is to you because it is in plain sight and it take a willful act of blindness not to see it

"I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."
"I am your retribution."
From a legal perspective the Trump Jr. email likely wouldn't even be admissible in court (the probable reason behind why it was leaked). It doesn't demonstrate clear intent, and it's further clouded by the fact that the Russian overture was incorrectly characterized as a sharing of information about illegal activity at the state level. Now, it's very possible that this was just a cover to get in the door with Trump before revealing that the actual dirt was stolen emails ... but that's a presumption. You need more. And more can't be the Flynn angle, or the Sessions angle, or the piss play at the Ritz angle.
There is an argument for treason.

You could say conspiring to commit election fraud with a foreign agent constitutes "adheres to their enemies, giving aid and comfort".
Considering that foreign agent has in the past vowed to bury us
Thpough not a lawyer , I could see where treason would be in play

oh really ?
it is common knowledge we have sustained a cyber attack by a foreign entity (Russia) if that isn't war, I don't know what is
what does "die-hard lib" have to do with what words mean.

conspiracy to commit election fraud
and obstruction of justice
are very much in play
Collusion by itself is not a crime.
Just a word that encapsulates this escapade

who is we ?
'we" had that opportunity in November to elect some one with a record of taking hard stances against the Russians and many choose a serial sex predator / suspected Russian agent / failed casino owner, because you know, there might be an appearance of possible wrongdoing ...
Crocodile tears my friend, crocodile tears
"we" as in Ben Sasse or Donald Trump or Jeff Sessions .... Paul Ryan --- John McCain lil Marco -- Rand Paul -- Justin Amash
