Evidence that then-presidential candidate Donald Trump was pursuing a lucrative business deal with Russia and that his personal attorney, Michael Cohen, emailed Russian President Vladimir Putinās personal spokesman to intervene raises the stakes in Robert S. Mueller IIIās investigation substantially. The Post reports:
Cohenās email to [Dmitry] Peskov provides an example of a Trump business official directly seeking Kremlin assistance in advancing Trumpās business interests. ā¦ Cohen said he discussed the deal three times with Trump and that Trump signed a letter of intent with the company on Oct. 28, 2015. He said the Trump company began to solicit designs from architects and discuss financing.
Ethics expert Norman Eisen warns: āNow we have a second group of emails from those in Trumpās orbit suggesting high-level outreach to Russia in and around the election season. Like the now-famous email exchange with Don Jr. about Russiaās āsupport for Mr. Trump,ā these new documents promising that āPutinās teamā will ābuy inā on Trump raise the question of what the president knew of all this and when he knew it.ā He tells me, āThe emails add important additional evidence to the special counselās investigation, both as to possible collusion and as to obstruction of justice, inasmuch as they deepen the suspicion of a possible malign Trump motive for attempting to block the Russia investigation.”

Agree. Any trained performer will tell you that besides chancing, getting high on criminal activity, lying and stealing: “Trump shows more interest in performance art than duties”. He passes the time looking at Obama and others. Transparently so.

Orange ass is at it again. These do not age like fine wine….
Christie sat there and made excuses for Trump, calling him his friend throughout the interview. It was a bit sickening.
Now remember kids, sit next to the smart ones so you can copy from their papers.
Trudeau has offered to help. Is the great pretender going to refuse that?
