Does your educated opinion include the fact he has donated a million + to struggling communities, schools and organization to help improve the lives of the indigent? How about all the hours of his time he has donated as well? If it does include those, then I question the education of the person coming to that conclusion. If it does not, then it obviously is a very biased opinion.
No one has argued on if sanctions were imposed. We all have seen the news. The issue is what those sanction can ultimately accomplish and if they were just political fodder to give the administration a few talking points while never actually sanctioning Russia via things that will actually have an impact? What impacts are they likely to have on Russia, and is it enough to counter their impact on our elections and prevent future attack, which by all account are still occurring? Also, your own articles insinuate he did so reluctantly after congress passed them almost unanimously. It also mentions may same argument that they aren't exactly damaging or impactful sanctions. He's also trying to get them back into the G7 and more global influence and power, but hey, don't let those facts get in your way.
Where did you clearly write the US paid for Kim's accommodations? Because technically that would be illegal, as it is against US International policy and international law. We couldn't legally pay for anything or be tied to any direct payments or funding because we have current economic sanctions placed against them. Nor would NK have allowed that embarrassment to happen publicly.
What do you think we offered NK in exchange for them to denuke? You realize it included an economic relief and aid package, which is a fancy term for money. How is that not paying them to denuke? I would think with your educated opinions you could have figured that one out.
Holy ****, you are one gullible dude if you believe that. Some charges were a few years older, but several occurred during the campaign years. Most of these guys are going away for a long *** time regardless and could have easily been pardoned by the president, who even suggested he may or avoided the topic multiple times. The same president who seems to enjoy pardoning people.
You mean the meeting where the young lady was approved to enter the country by Obama admin, then went directly to meet with Fusion afterwards, that meeting? She had been coming to the US for several years to defend a Russian client who was being sued by the US. Why wouldn't she have been approved to enter? She first entered the US under President Bush. Also, Fusion GPS did work revolving around campaigning to influence and overturn the Magnitsky Act, which she was allegedly tied to and the initial excuse they gave for the meeting.
Steele was initially hired by Republicans in the primary to have something to attack Trump with. Much of it was corroborated. There are some questionable things like the hookers peeing on Trump at a Russian hotel. But, after Stormy, Karen McDougal and his history with women, particularly the NDA's and paying them off. Do you honestly think there isn't a decent likelihood it's true. I mean, that would be a reasonable educated opinion, no?
The heavily redacted documents released comprise an application to, and subsequent renewals by, judges on the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court allowing the FBI to investigate Page, a foreign policy aide to the Trump campaign. But it's already been established by the House Intelligence Committee that the Russia investigation began after the FBI learned that another campaign aide, George Papadopoulos, had been approached by a Russian agent. The agent told Papadopoulos the Russians had incriminating information about Hillary Clinton, including emails, according to court documents. Papadopoulos then mentioned to an Australian diplomat that the Russians had "dirt" on Clinton, the Australians contacted the U.S. government, and the FBI began to take a look. The so-called dossier formed only a small part of the evidence used to meet the legal burden of establishing "probable cause" that Page was an agent of Russia.
The released documents contain dozens of pages that are entirely blacked out. People who have read them, including Rep. Adam Schiff, the ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, say they contain secret evidence establishing ties between Page and Russians. Evidence that goes beyond what was included in the dossier compiled by Christopher Steele. Frank Figliuzzi, the former FBI counterintelligence chief who is now an NBC News contributor, says that likely includes reporting from human sources and intercepted communications. Page, it should be said, denies that he was an agent of Russia and has not been charged with a crime. National security experts who have reviewed the document say that even the parts that aren't blacked out contain more than enough information to provide a judge reason to rule that the FBI had probable cause to believe that Page was an agent of Russia. Probable cause is much lower than the reasonable doubt the standard required to convict someone of a crime. Page had already appeared on the FBI's radar as a target of Russian intelligence recruitment in a separate spy case. He has acknowledged that he traveled to Moscow and met with Russian officials during the 2016 campaign. It would have been malpractice for the FBI, confronted with allegations that Page was helping the Russians, not to investigate.
Four different judges, all appointed by Republican presidents, signed off on electronic surveillance of Carter Page. And that's the end of a long process that involves multiple layers of review within the FBI and the Justice Department, current and former officials say. Anyone trying to put one over on the FISA court would be risking his or her career. It was not improper and perfectly normal for the FBI to disclose information from the Steele dossier as part of the warrant application.
Okay, now you're just getting into the deep state conspiracy ****, which while entertaining, has no real evidence to support. Let me guess, it was Hilary, in the billiard room, with the dossier. The only person trying to undermine Trump is his own team evidently. They evidently agree he's nuts and hide **** from him to keep him from damaging national security. And then right Op-eds admitting to it.
Um, no. Robert Mueller's investigation started May 17, 2017. You must be referring to one of the other countless investigations pertaining to this administration. There is plenty of reason if he is truly innocent. Why even practice or have a mock interview if you aren't considering doing it. And please spare me the bs of them denying it now. This admin has denied everything, only to have it comes out as truth later. Including but not limited to the multiple affairs and payments, the meeting in trump tower, Comey's firing, his inauguration size for gods-sake and about 3000 other things.
If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear. According to Trump, it's like super duper evident he didn't collude, he is so awesome he would never need to. He is better and more honest than Lincoln. So what should he have to fear?
Ps, it's not perjury just because someone contradicts your claim. Especially not if you're the one being truthful. However, being truthful is the problem, isn't it?
Right, like the payments and affairs, the meeting in trump tower, firings, the inauguration size, etc. etc. etc. If you still trust this administration after all the proven lies, and smoke and mirrors, you will believe almost anything.
