The Mueller Report thread

On 60 Minutes this past February Andrew McCabe stated that while he was director of the FBI there were concerns that Trump “had been working on behalf of Russia against American interests" which cause “the highest levels of American law enforcement [to try] to figure out what to do with the president"-  including invoking the 25 amendment.

I don't agree with much of Trump's conduct and didn't vote for him. I cheered for him over Hilary and pretty much guarantee I'm cheering for him over any of the Democrats who have declared already, but that because there's only 2 choices to go with. I wouldn't vote based on a false dichotomy though.


I also don't agree with the Dems using the investigation to get Trump any way they can just to improve their own election chances. It was an investigation into criminal conduct came back with no charges against Trump or his family. It found no collusion with Russia by any American. The people who got charged got hit for lying during the investigation or hit with crimes that had nothing to do with the election what so ever. That's a win for Trump.


EDIT: Serious question - how come the font gets so screwed up when I copy and paste from Word and why does it just get screwed up worse trying to fix it using the board's formatting options?

That's fair enough, thanks for the response.

Regarding your edit, seems like some strange fonts get taken over with copy paste. The way to fix it would be using the source code and getting rid of the respective entries manually.

- You don't happen to remember which candidate said "Russian agent"? I want to put that person on my no no-list... and as for McCabe. I generally don't like the american way of holding one's nose into every camera for a while to promote a book very much, and I found some things he said a bit questionable too. But regarding the concerns, I kind of get it. Russia got involved with the clear aim to help him win the election. While that doesn't necessarily imply anything nefarious against Trump - they might have chosen him nonetheless - his behaviour towards Putin and Russia seems highly suspicious. Trump believed Putin over his own intelligence agencies, downplayed or straight dismissed their meddling attempts, seemed very reluctant to imply sanctions, met with Kislyak and Lawrow quite secretively, lied about his Russian business interests, took in people like Manafort with a clear, yet shady connection to Russia, took in others who met with suspicious Russians frequently (this Trump tower meeeting just being one example of many), has this odd relationship to the Russian money laundering station Deutsche Bank, his son and Roger Stone held contact to Wikileaks, one of his advisors and one of his business associates openly bragged about Russian aid for Trump... and then some. I'd say that's sufficient reason to be quite concerned.
