But you also have jumped to numerous conclusions. If the interim Trump administration officials are talking to Russsia and Ukraine, that is their job. Remember: smooth and peaceful transition of power.

Concerning the entire Trump witch hunt, take away the presumption of guilt, and there is nothing. Just a bunch of "IFs," process crimes, and old tax evasion. Look at the actions of Obama deep state officials and you will see endless crimes. Add to that the Mueller prosecutorial abuses of power.

ZNP, you of all others, should understand that Trump is despised just because he is not a part of the deep state swamp. Look at what he has had to endure by standing up against it! Are not you also one of those who believes Bush officials were part of 9/11? If the DS could pull that off, think of the power they wield behind the scenes.

Why would Trump instruct Cohen to lie to Congress about building hotels in Russia? There's no crime in negotiating with Russians. Didn't Obama scold Romney on national TV in 2012 for his out-of-date foreign policy thinking that Russia was a geo-political threat? Now, all of a sudden, Russia is our enemy again. Sounds to me like Russia is only "dangerous" when the deep state says they are.

What does it matter to you that Putin and his minions sought to destabilize the USA by interfering with our elections? They did much the same thing in the UK brexit referendum. Putin furthered the cause of Christian nationalism. You are understandibly grateful.
