    No, you made the claim that the Russians broke the law but Trump worked with them and didn't.

    Yeah go ponder that for a minute. You'll get it.

    Your point would have been bettered if all this Trump officials, and Trump himself, had not been talking WITH the Russians KGB officials.

    As well as Trump officials like Papadopoulos had not bragged about getting dirt and secrets from the Russian KGB to pass on to the President's children, who are USA senior officials who had been breaking dozens of policies and laws in the act of their dirty deals.

    Not only is your post pure propaganda ( by failing to discuss the criminal conduct of convicted George Papadopoulos) you and Trumpenstein mindlessly label any legitimate investigation as anti Trumoper. But the Putin/Trump regime is purely anti-American. I've never seen such contempt for the Constitution and the American People from any other administration.

    Listed below 10,000 lies that Trump told to U.S. citizens. The Putin/ Trump regime feeds propaganda to U.S. citizens treating them as if they were part of an Enemy nation. Now here's the part where you say that this is all 'Fake News' which is the mindless mantra that Trump and his supporters use reflexively when legitimate news sources tell the truth about Trump.

    “I withdrew from that horrible deal where they paid $150 billion to Iran.”
    Repeated 35 times


    The Truth:
    Topic: Foreign policy

    Source: Campaign rally
    Full story

    Trump often makes it sound like the United States cut a check to Iran. He also always uses too high an estimate, $150 billion, for the assets involved. But this was always Iran’s money. Iran had billions of dollars that were frozen in foreign banks around the globe because of international sanctions over its nuclear program.The Treasury Department estimated that once Iran fulfilled other obligations, it would have about $55 billion left. The Central Bank of Iran said the number was actually $32 billion.

    “We're getting ripped off on military, NATO. I'm all for NATO. But you know, we're paying for almost 100 percent of defending Europe.”

    Repeated 102 times

    The Truth:

    Topic: Foreign policy

    Source: Campaign rally

    During the presidential election, Trump consistently inflated the U.S. contribution to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. Once he became president, his inaccuracy has persisted, but with a twist. He often claims that “billions and billions” of dollars have come into NATO because of his complaints. All that is happening is that members have increased defense spending as a share of their economies — a process that was started before Trump even announced his candidacy. In terms of direct funding of NATO, the United States pays the largest share — about 22 percent. Germany is second, with about 15 percent.

    The Truth:

    We have cut 30,000 pages of job killing regulations from the Federal Register. That's an all-time record. It's never happened before.”

    Repeated 2 times

    Apr 27, 2019Mar 2


    Topic: Economy

    Source: Campaign rally

    This is a nonsense statistic, as counting pages tells you next to nothing about the impact of a regulation. In fact, removing a regulation requires pages in the federal register. Trump has certainly slowed the growth of regulations but his claims of doing more than any other president cannot be verified. There is no reliable metric on which to judge his claim — or to compare him to previous presidents.

    More than spying on the campaign, the FBI or like agencies were deliberately trying to set people up, like Papadopoulos.

    I'm not sure why this surprises you. The counterintelligence investigation of the Trump campaign stated in July of 2016.

    You know what is even MORE "Surprising"?

    The post that you responded to is Over 4 Months Old.

    This thread hadn't had a post for OVER 4 MONTHS, and then was NECROed by a member who then *deleted* the post?

    Post #183

    http://politicalforum.com/index.php...mp-aide-in-2016.555172/page-8#post-1070965770

    What is up with that?:bored:

    Anyway, if anyone wanted to discuss NEW developments, why wouldn't they just start a FRESH Thread?

    I understand that Necroing these sort of threads is a preferred "troll tactic" for some people.

    BUT, the thing that is really ridiculous about NECROing threads this OLD is THIS:

    If you have your "notifications" enabled, you get these messages that someone "quoted' your post--And, THEN, you find out that somebody quoted something that you posted 4 MONTHS AGO.

    This repeated Necroing of threads has grown so annoying.

    Hopefully, PF Members who actually respect the Rules and the look of the Forum Index will Cease and Desist this behavior.

    As far as the actual OP Topic?

    This Subject was Hammered to Death 4 MONTHS AGO.

    And, at this point, I don't think that the 2016 Convo in London even matters.:salute:

    The FBI did not 'spy', which is a dirty falsehood.

    It had every right to surveil.

    Obviously.

    "Spy" is just one of those Ludicrous "Buzzwords" used by the RW Fever Swamp to rile up the Trumpies.

    ^Everybody KNOWS That. :salute:

    In light of Information that a Foreign Power (aka Russia) may be interfering in said "political campaign", the answer would be a resounding YES. :flagus:

    Either way, this dark episode in American history highlights why we must keep leftist regimes out of power...they will abuse it, weaponize the Govt against their political rivals.

    If this happened I commend the FBI for protecting our country from our enemies. The FBI should check things like this out no matter which party may be involved.

    Good work FBI keep it up.

    What is scary is that Trump supporters are ok with Trump trashing our intelligence agencies and lavashing praise on the Russian Putin an enemy of our country.

    This is a true story. What happened in the 2016 is nothing short of treason by the Obama Administration.

    The 'dark episode' is the pro-Trump defense of Russian meddling in American elections. That is why we have limited rightist regimes in our government, and why the Trump mistake will be eliminated in next year's elections. Then Real America is going to chase down the traitors in the Trump group.

    Russian meddling took place under Obama's watch...ironically after he promised to be "more flexible" with them if they went easy on him during the 2012 election.

    Trump's increased sanctions, bombed their allies, and armed the Ukraine
