Collusion is likely illegal if it is done to conduct activities which violate the law...what are you asking?

He never colluded in the first place. Even if he did, someone had to do the job. Hillary would have meant WIII.

He did an interview for the New York Times. In the article I read he said Alan Dershewitz said if there was collusion it probably was not illegal. I thought collusion was illegal. Are there times when collusion is not illegal?

so...went to see what was on the Hill that you're 'referring' to, Spey....found this. I didn't listen to the interview, but it reads like a conversation with a seven year old who got caught nervously walking away from the broken vase, but still thinks that you may not be able to prove he did it yet....."besides...I saw the cat....and even if....but...."

Now, I don't...and never did believe there was any 'there' there. I highly doubt there was illegal cooperation between the Trump campaign and Russia anything....but, jeez...just stfu about it, Mr.President....



“I watched Alan Dershowitz the other day, he said, No. 1, there is no collusion, No. 2, collusion is not a crime, but even if it was a crime, there was no collusion,” Trump told The Times. “And he said that very strongly. He said there was no collusion. And he has studied this thing very closely. I’ve seen him a number of times.”

“There is no collusion, and even if there was, it’s not a crime,” he continued. “But there’s no collusion.”

In fairness, it is NOT collusion to talk with your employer.

So, as far as the Russians go, Trump was just talking to the boss.....

I think the word "collusion" was a convenient term used to describe a wordy phrase that is illegal behavior: conspiracy with a foreign national to interfere in an election...52 U.S.C. 30121, 36 U.S.C. 510...


There may not be proof of a there there as to the President, but there is some evidence that members of his campaign team may have conspired with foreign nationals to interfere with an election. Flynn, Manafort, Papadopoulos and Gates have already been charged in the investigation so far...there are inculpatory emails by Jr and Jared...and that's just stuff that has been made public...


Trump has been reacting as a person who is cognizant of wrong-doing...early on, around June, he inquired about his powers of the pardon regarding friends, family and himself...

Butt, Trump...




Obama was authorized to speak on behalf of the US, and did not conspire with the Russians to affect an election...

Hey I know we're all entrenched on our personal political islands but we're still all Amercans, right??
We're talking RUSSIANS here!! Not big fans of democracies, ya know? These are the folks who brought you Stalin. And Russia, the country where 9 political leaders mysteriously died in the last 9 months, orders to murder reporters are common and opposition leader Navalny was just given a 20-day prison sentence for not shutting up.
Fake news is a high crime to the Kremlin. Reporters die. Guys like ex chess champ Kasparov has to leave Russia to escape persecution for his high crime of "free speech". Even he is amazed that they haven't killed him yet.
Ask Ukrainians about Russia. Ask the German people how the Russian army treated them after the war.
In an interview Trump defended Putin 'You think our country's so innocent?' Stupefying.
We're not innocent but ....Siberia? Mass graves?
Under no circumstances is it okay that they worked with Trump to get him elected.
And if he corroborated , LOCK HIM UP!,

If you were seriously looking towards a candidate that would avoid WW3 then how could you help elect a guy like Trump anyway? Donald actually enjoys taunting, insulting and egging on Kim Jong-un who we all know is hell bent on war.

Anyway, seems"collusion" is NOT a legal term except in the case of antitrust.

Yes this is Correct. I'm personally more concerned with the amount of
" internal damage " to our own country under her and in general anyone supporting the Democratic playbook mindset today after Barry Soetoro' reign. Russia is @ best a secondary concern AFTER the health of our own country. Perhaps " fake news " and the ensuing damage it INTENTIONALLY creates should be considered illegal and become a legal offense.
