    The facts are constantly made up. This story a case in point.

    They knew that a few days after the attack.

    Not as great as the Russian dossier bought and paid for by the DNC.

    Hmm.

    No response.

    I want to continue this discussion but can't do so without knowing what your understanding of those terms is.

    Even though a number of things from the dossier have been verified?

    A GOP competitor initially financed it, you know, so why do you make the claim that the DNC is the only group behind it, and why do you make the assumption that it must be magically untrue because of who you claim paid for it?

    The Holt interview is where Trump said that the FBI was in turmoil under Comey. Right from his large oral cavity. Are you insinuating that your president just made it up? By the way, he is NOT my president! Why would you assume this?

    Yes. Don't you believe Trump's reasons for firing Comey? Why do you believe what Trump says, but are surprised that I believe what Trump says?

    So Trump said this in the interview? Surely you can't be serious! I think you need to watch the interview again!

    Trump is a liar. He lies about everything. I don't believe anything he says about Comey and the FBI, because the FBI may investigate
    Trump's activities in Russia and he wants to denigrate the FBI up front. You mean that he didn't fire Comey because of the Russian investigation? He lied? You can twist and turn but Trump felt threatened.
    Now that we know that Trump was negotiating for a Trump tower in Moscow, maybe those negotiations bearing any fruit depended on the lifting of the sanctions, yes? Collusion? Nah.

    You can't even point to the part of that interview where Trump said that he fired Comey because of the Russia investigation?

    If Trump specifically said, "I fired Comey because of the Russian investigation" then yes, I guess I HAVE been living under a rock.

    They ARE a foreign adversary, and that's why the collusion which occurred wasn't with any government representatives. Do you believe that Hillary colluded? I note that you have made ZERO attempt to deny that she colluded! Don't you want to at least try?

    Nothing in the dossier that wasn't already public information when the dossier was written by Steele has ever been verified. And exactly ZERO of the collusion allegations have been corroborated. And you are still passing around the lie that the GOP had something to do with the dossier. The Free Beacon hired Fusion GPS but ended it in April 2016. Christopher Steele was approached by Fusion GPS to fabricate nonsense about Trump in June 2016 with backing from Hillary Clinton and the DNC. The GOP and no conservative group ever had anything to do with the dossier. They were long out of the picture before that conspiracy was hatched.

    Once again, facts matter here. Left wing psychosis does not.

    Good grief. Your entire argument boiled down simply: Collusion is "questionable...you never accused Trump of personally colluding with the Russians....Russia meddling in our election is still being investigated.....etc. etc etc. We all must trust your anti-Trump rhetoric, however, as being "fact". LOLOLOLOLOL.

    Look, man,you are no Republican. Far from it. Any Republican would understand that given the choice between Trump and Hillary Clinton this isn't even close. Now buzz off and try to convince others of your garbage. We aren't buying.

    If that's true, then "Republican" means anti-American

    You want me to remember the part of the interview? You're joking, right
    Trump has offered a variety of reasons for firing the FBI director, which he did by letter on May 9, 2017. Two days after dismissing the embattled law enforcement officer, Trump told NBC’s Lester Holt that the FBI’s Russia investigation was on his mind during the firing.

    “And, in fact, when I decided to just do it, I said to myself, I said: ‘You know, this Russia thing with Trump and Russia is a made up story.

    "No, it is not like Whitewater. That went on four times longer than the Russia investigation has so far. Whitewater indicted less than half as many people than the Russia investigation already has. Where Whitewater was plagued by leaks and Ken Starr's own cult of personality, the Russia investigation has been tight, swift and professional. Russia attacked us. Numerous Russian government agents have been named and indicted. All in under two years, that is impressive work.

    Why does Trump continue to ignore that Russia attacked us and the investigation has named them and produced the evidence? Why does Trump continue to pretend this is solely about himself? It never was that you know.

    No one knows what Mueller's team have learned about Trump so far. He's run too tight a ship for leaks to get out. It is possible that Mueller will say that Trump didn't do anything to be prosecuted for. Whatever Trump did do or failed to do, it will be presented based upon evidence, as it has already been for all the people charged or convicted.

    That's the great thing about a professional like Mueller, he will follow the evidence and the law and report factually, not politically."

    What do I think? I think that all of it is accurate. Again, what about this post do you think is "fake". The length of time?

    Who cares what "we" are buying, and I am not selling. My anti-Trump "rhetoric" is my opinion. And you laugh a lot, yes? Are you a comedian? Look dood, you are no Republican. You are part of the Party of Trump and they ain't Republicans.

    Name one thing of any substance that has been verified.

    That's just more of the BS you've been fed. Don't be so gullible. The entirety of the Russian Dossier was researched and written AFTER the DNC hired the law firm who hired Steele.
