whether you agree with their reasoning or not, that was 100% a perjury trap;

They knew he had lied about something, they knew he wouldn't be able to change his story, they interviewed him under an ostensibly informal visit and got him on the record and asked him a pointed question they knew he would lie about


I don't see it that way. FBI had good reason to interview Flynn about his conversation with the Russian ambassador, and it's bizarre to think they expected him to lie. Why couldn't he tell the FBI the truth? It wasn't even that big of a deal to say he discussed sanctions with the ambassador.

This is the story of the Russia investigation. Campaign/transition officials lying to cover up politically embarrassing contacts. It made everything worse, and gave the impression that all of them were covering up something bigger.

Everyone wanted a read through Crooked Hillary's emails once we knew she had lost them to hackers in a moment of historical incompetence.

What a complete nothingburger.


The head shed of a presidential campaign should not be putting feelers out in order to receive stolen material.

I feel like the basic norms of conduct have been turned upside down because cultists are desperate to minimize whatever the Trump people did. We all know you guys wouldn't minimize it if it was Obama or Hillary. I don't know how you reconcile the inconsistency in your head.

I had the right to end the whole Witch Hunt if I wanted. I could have fired everyone, including Mueller, if I wanted. I chose not to. I had the RIGHT to use Executive Privilege. I didn’t!


Lol


What an idiot. Although I suppose he could've tried to use executive privilege.. but that wouldn't make sense politically.

Not sure how you reconcile Mueller being an overly aggressive prosecutor and him not even issuing a subpoena to the president's son, who took the meeting with Russians in an attempt to receive dirt on Hillary.

If Hillary was elected, and Chelsea Clinton were in the same circumstances and not interviewed, Trump supporters would call this investigation entirely illegitimate and corrupt. Mueller was extremely cautious in the investigative steps he took... probably too cautious.

Trump exercised his constitutional powers, the FBI created a perjury trap for Flynn, and the media gullibly reported on fake news for more than two years.

I'm glad that we'll be investigating this thoroughly and jailing the perpetrators.

If those emails were Trump's emails and Hillary was trying to get them after them being offered to her, she would be hailed as a hero.

The part I don't understand is why trying to get incriminating emails that were already leaked, is a bad thing. It's almost like Trump was... looking out for the old USA.

Why would he change his story if he is under oath?

So you're saying that Trump hacked Hillary's emails? Dude she was doing illegal things, and someone noticed. You think someone should let the possible most powerful person in the world, get away with conspiring with Russia?
We already KNOW that Hillary was doing... something with Russia from the Uranium One deal. Something good for Russia and not good for the USA.

Then the world hears about the emails. If I was running for any office and I had a chance to get those emails... I would try my damnedest to get them. We really don't need the possible next president of the US conspiring with Russia.



What would normally be considered a heroic act, has been spun into sneaky backhanded BS, done by Trump. Hell, a bunch of 6 year olds wouldn't believe the crap the left is shoveling, if it was happening in a Saturday morning cartoon.




/e Hell, Underdog would be on Trump's side in this.

Side note, I would hate to do Mueller's job. So boring.
