This is truly mind-blowing.
Perhaps you’ve been wondering how establishment Republicans were so happy ignoring the looming treason scandal of their President. It very well could be because they, too, have something Russian to hide.
So it wasn’t Donald Trump alone who had ties to the Russians during the 2016 campaign. It turns out that the Republican National Committee used a firm with ties to Russian intelligence to dig up dirt on Hillary Clinton.
The RNC used former CIA officers’ firm the Hamilton Trading Group, which has “particular expertise” in Russia, to dig up dirt on Clinton according to a Politico report.
“RNC officials and the president and co-founder of Hamilton Trading Group, an ex-CIA officer named Ben Wickham, insisted the payments, which eventually totaled $41,500, had nothing to do with Russia,” Kenneth P. Vogel and Eli Stokols reported.
The RNC claimed the payments were for “security.”
“But RNC officials now acknowledge that most of the cash — $34,100 — went towards intelligence-style reports that sought to prove conflicts of interest between Democratic presidential […]
Russia is the Devil? This is the last gasp of the old Cold Warriors.
So it is treason for Trump associates to have normal-course-of-business relationships with Russia but not treason when Hillary shares state secrets with unauthorized persons over an insecure network?
“…but not treason when Hillary shares state secrets with unauthorized persons over an insecure network?”
That rightwing-rhetoric-fantasy did not happen as stated, so…no it is not treason if it never occurred. This has been fact-checked a number of times.
And if you are still deluding yourself that some–in fact MANY–Trump associates’ relationships with Russia is ‘normal’, let alone legal, then you have truly lost all objectivity.
How you seem to have concluded what you have posted from what I wrote is beyond me. Hillary Clinton was not sharing state secrets (you need to stop reading the Rightwing trash sites that feed these myths), and I don’t see anything normal about the Trump administration.
Both political parties belong in the scrap bin of history..corrupt, treasonous, tyrannical, useless.
The people should be able to vote, individually, on each issue which involves them, instead of the politicians voting any way they choose for their own benefit instead of the people’s benefit. I do not know exactly how this could be accomplished, but it would be far better than trusting politicians to vote on issues important to the citizens.
