I think the collusion goes much deeper. Those GOP senators were in Russia to make a deal for all we know. What they discussed is as much a secret as what Trump promised Putin. I predict we will see more and deeper conspiracy.
The GOP cannot afford to lose power in November and we can expect an all out assault on our country with the help of the GOP and its billionaires. Even Russia changing votes is not beyond the GOP. Look at the writing on the wall because Putin owns the GOP too. The brutal truth is that Ryan and Mc Connell are just as deeply involved and supportive as Trump. They are doing it secretly.
I tend to believe that matters are much worse than we expect. So GOTV is now so crucial.

I wouldn't doubt it, maybe that is why they are all silent.
They need to be hauled in they are conspirators working with the Russian government. They got to be.

(9,670 posts)But what real expectations should we have that the results will be different than in 2016? Our intelligence agencies have indicated that Russian cyberattacks have not been curbed in the least. What I dread is a veritable Blue Wave that is negated by a Red Gauntlet. Are we over-confident that sheer numbers are sufficient to win?
I think we are. I think we're screwed if we expect a different result under the same conditions.

(733 posts)Trump;s poll numbers are not going up and the investigation is heating up. He has to end the investigation now; it will only get worse for him. Putin mentioned the Magnitsky Act, a sign that the sanctions will be raised. That's all that Putin needs to restart his deal with Chevron to tap into Russian oil reserves. Russia's economy is in bad shape now.
