With the midterms closing in on us and Putler/Russia currently being viewed in an unfavorable light we need to
tie them to _rump's & GQP's coattails. We need to look into & find every bit of dirt which shows Putler has way
to much influence on reQublicOns. To include but not limited to......
1) Russian oligarch's money flowing into R's campaign funds, even if they have dual citizenship, plus the money
that went through the NRA, who got it.
2) Keep handy all video clips & written evidence of R's praising or siding with Putler/Russia, plus all of RW media
who was doing the same.
3) Dig deeper into the 8 R senators who spent July 4th (of all days) enjoying dinner with Putler, can we get the
DOJ to do this?
4) Find the translators who were at the closed door meetings who's notes were flushed. Interview them on 60
minutes while hiding their identities find out what Putler was asking the idiot to do for him. Would probably
need someone to sign off on this for national security reasons. We want IQ4.5's misdeeds to see the light of day.
5) Find legislation that was Putler/Russian friendly and passed by Rs when they controlled both Houses (2016-2018)
Plus any executive orders that did the same.
6) Had something to put here and forgot after I typed the 6, getting old & forgetful, anybody have a guess?
on edit, just remembered....
7) Get The Lincoln Project/Midas Touch to do a video of donnie's face lighting up every time he was around Putler,
and the disgusting looks he gave other world leaders and end it with one of F**ker Carlson's "I'm just asking a question."

might be a real game changer leading to a Big Blue Wave. Real Democracy hinges on the midterms.

(17,178 posts)It appears little donnie knew even before he got elected (or should I say stole?) to the White House in 2016
that Putler wanted Ukraine. How did he know 6 years before it happened, been laundering money donnie?
President Trump may have been involved with a change to the Republican Party campaign platform in 2015 that
watered down support for U.S. assistance to Ukraine, according to new information from someone who was involved.
Diana Denman, a Republican delegate who supported arming U.S. allies in Ukraine, has told people that Trump aide
J.D. Gordon said at the Republican Convention in 2016 that Trump directed him to support weakening that position
in the official platform.
Denman is scheduled to meet this week with the House and Senate Intelligence committees to discuss what she saw,
said two sources familiar with the briefings.
Investigators in Congress and elsewhere want to ask the San Antonio-area woman about how her proposal supporting
Ukraine changed in the course of last year's convention.

(30,613 posts)Trump picks as campaign manager, the same guy (Manafort) who installed a Putin puppet in Ukraine.
Trump changes the GOP party platform to eliminate support for Ukraine.
Trump spends four years trying to destroy NATO.
Trump withholds aid to Ukraine as part of a whacko blackmail scheme, ostensibly to get them to fake an investigation of his rival's son.
Ukraine is the thread that finally ties it all together.

KS Toronado
(17,178 posts)but they did do some changes that was favorable to Russia, maybe on account of donnie's insistence.
Plus we all know he held up aid to Ukraine until they'd give him made up dirt on Biden, but FQX
probably spun that to their audience in such a way to make it Liberal fake news.

(1,772 posts)and implementing good, solid policy. Focusing on the former ass will convince no one but those who are already solidly Democratic voters. Independents are the focus group, and beating this dead horse will most certainly turn a lot of them off because they don't give a shit about that or him. They care about conditions, their way of life, and their ability to afford said life.
We have good policy, and we need to work toward implementing it and producing measurable results.
KS Toronado
(17,178 posts)And I question if any Independents want to vote for the party Putler is attempting to control.
