    First, I think it's cute how the leftist MSM has to put a disclaimer when it has anything to do with potentially supporting POTUS Trump. Cowards. No disclaimer is made when any article is 'anti-Trump.'

    But let's get right to the hypocrisy of the left:

    https://campaignlegal.org/sites/default/files/10-25-17 CLC DNC Clinton (Filed).pdf

    The left is digging it's own grave. Not even California, New York, and all the illegal immigrants can save it.

    Hillary hired a law firm to do some research. They hired a company. That company hired another company with Russian sources.
    That’s not the same as the campaign getting info directly from a foreign govt. not even close.
    But keep pretending.

    B-b-but she didn't fail. Chalupa got Yanukovych black ledger, shared that with Vicky Nuland, and somewhere down the line Mueller got his hands on them. And no ... Trump jr. did not reach out to a foreign gov't, nor was he a contractor hired to solicit foreign dirt.

    Since they hired the same company that the Trump tower lawyer worked for, what's the problem?

    Also, who got info directly from a foreign government?

    So it’s OK to hire a driver for your get-away car when you rob a bank because you are paying him?

    You'd need to be a drooling fool to really believe that. I know you don't believe it but. you. just. can't. help. defending. your. fuhrer. from looking like the bumbling moron that he is.
    If trump wants to pay a company to do oppo research on the next deg candidate, he can legally do that. BUT, that's not what was asked in the ABC interview. And you freaking know it.

    Sure but everyone knows where the buck stops. Hillary Clinton obviously didn't care to know where the information came from. It's called plausible denial and as a lawyer Clinton knows the law pretty well.

    Plausible Deniability

    A condition in which a subject can safely and believeably deny knowledge of any particular truth that may exist because the subject is deliberately made unaware of said truth so as to benefit or shield the subject from any responsibility associated through the knowledge of such truth.

    "Election Commissioner: Clinton Can Get Info From Foreigners, But How Dare Trump Think About It"

    foreign government is the issue, not that they were Foreigners

    and republicans were the ones that initiated that report

    but regardless, she can't be impeached like Trump even if she had... because she is not President

    Robbing a bank is illegal. Sort of like hacking the dnc is.

    Yes and that also prevents the candidate from being in debt to foreign interests as she didn’t know about Steele and he didn’t know who his client was and his sources didn’t either

    The lawyer personally allowed to stay in the country by Lynch who worked for Fusion GPS?

    Why was Lynch letting a Putin connection stay in the country and why did Clinton hire a firm known to employ Putin assets?

    Actually Trump Jr. and the lawyer never spoke before the meeting, nor do we have any emails from any Russian. Everything was presented by Goldstone.

    So tell me why Trump Jr. shouldn't accept information of potential illegal actions by Clinton from Russia.

    Is that a crime?

    Also you can note that no actual information was received, so there was no next step in any direction.

    He shouldn’t put his father in debt to Putin. But not it’s not illegal to meet.
    And I have no idea what he got from the meeting, but Russia got a signal that the campaign was happy to get their help.

    So I fail to see the problem.

    Trump Jr. saying "sure, let's see the information" is not illegal.

    And since no information was presented, what he would do if information had been presented, is moot.
