    Show me ONE instance of the Clinton campaign seeking a in-kind donation from a foreign national - just one because it 'happens all the time' right?

    It has always been illegal when a FOREIGNER is involved, you want the specific law?

    According to Tribe, Trump Jr. was “part of a criminal conspiracy” to violate a federal criminal law banning foreign aid to any U.S. campaign. As we reported earlier this week, the law on point here is contained in 11 CFR 110.20. Section (b) reads:

    Contributions and donations by foreign nationals in connection with elections. A foreign national shall not, directly or indirectly, make a contribution or a donation of money or other thing of value, or expressly or impliedly promise to make a contribution or a donation, in connection with any Federal, State, or local election.,,,

    (g) Solicitation, acceptance, or receipt of contributions and donations from foreign nationals. No person shall knowingly solicit, accept, or receive from a foreign national any contribution or donation prohibited by paragraphs (b) through (d) of this section.

    (h) Providing substantial assistance.

    (1) No person shall knowingly provide substantial assistance in the solicitation, making, acceptance, or receipt of a contribution or donation prohibited by paragraphs (b) through (d), and (g) of this section.

    • Talking Points for the Cult

    • Russia wasn't involved in the election at all, they're just a boogeyman!
    • Okay maybe Trump & his sons and his campaign managers and future cabinet members met with Russians a few times, but so what?

    • Alright it was more than a few times, and they failed to disclose a lot of those times, but who says these meetings had anything to do with collusion?

    • Sure, maybe the Russians were offering to help with the campaign a bit, but it's not like anyone in Trump's camp took a meeting knowing this! They were ambushed!

    • Fine, maybe they knew the Russians were offering damaging info on the opposition, but come on, you would jump at the chance in their position!

    • And besides, Trump knew nothing about what goes on in his own campaign! He was a totally isolated figurehead!

    • And even if he wasn't, who cares? MAGA!

    Your typical demoncrat is someone who thinks that when their party contracted with a firm called Fusion GPS who hired a British spy to get dirt on trump from Russian sources, who the FBI then used as a 'roadmap' for investigation, is all acceptable behaviour and 'collusion' with foreigners does not apply.
    But that some lawyer meeting with trump jr is a federal crime and prison time is called for.

    What accounts for the near schizophrenic behavior of these people?

  8. They intend to win AT ALL COSTS! No atrocity is beyond them. Just like George Soros... just like radical muslims.

    They don't consider what's "right", or "fair", or even "civil".

    First, the person who compiled the dossier was NOT working for any foreign government at the time.

    Second, DNC didn't use that dossier during the campaign.

    Third, Fusion GPS is an American company who can legally hire ANYONE to provide research to them, it's only illegal for CAMPAIGNS to hire or take anything of value from foreign nationals.

    Fourth, yes Trump Jr committed a crime and must see prison for it, if he didn't want to follow campaign laws then he shouldn't have been part of a campaign.

    We noticed, but the Dunning–Kruger effect is always in play
