    collusion was one part of the larger investigation into Russian interference. there is no particular reason why they shouldn't have looked into the possibility. and when the people they interviewed kept giving false statements, it arouses su ion and justifies a deeper look

    would have been a lot more quiet and less chaotic if people just told the truth all along and trump didnt go about firing the guy and then later stating he fired him over the investigation
    Right?

    Just tell the truth and let the investigation run it's course. How difficult is that?

    You really want to set a precedent for an elected official's resignation because of lying?

    Depends on the severity of the lie and the repercussions.

    There was plenty of dissenting posts from Republicans anyway but not many democrats which is a shame but even worse now is that djohn and RandomGuy have to deal with getting rightfully dunked on by the likes of Chris and hater.

    sad fate bros..sad fate. I'd probably rather be dead tbh
    Also:

    Said as much in the very beginning (mar 2018) that the more important things were the conflicts of interest and potential violations of the cons ution. Not nearly as sexy for the TSA/Chris crowd.

    The Russia thing was intensely pushed back on by the right wing media, because it was something they could win on, and ignored. So that was what got covered.

    Translation:

    "Depends on whether or not the politician has a "D" or an "R" behind their name."

    Don't piss on my shoes and tell me it's raining. The ONLY thing that matters to you is whether or not it was a Republican. If it was, then you are fine with any lie, any crime. I wouldn't put it past you to have defended Hastert at some point.

    What smoke justified the Russian collusion investigation?
    Trump’s campaign contacts plus his screwy comments to Russians and to Lester Holt in the wake of firing Comey.

    As unlikely as Trump being impeached before he wins or loses in 2020, but possible in principle. According to precedent, ex-officials can be impeached.

    With as many radical Dems in the race it’d be weird for Trump to run against HRC and Obama in 2020, but we’ve seen stranger things.

    and yes, schiff and lieu deserve a ton of egg on their faces, for making bold, conclusory statements along the way while the investigation was pending. i criticized all the stupid articles of impeachment stuff that we kept hearing about, including the one introduced by brad sherman, my own representative who i've voted for on multiple occasions

    that said, its not as though nunes et al have been vindicated, because they were crying foul play all along. there's no indication of that yet, and wont be until OIG releases its report on alleged fisa abuse. being cleared of criminal charges after a thorough investigation is very different than discrediting the investigation itself as a sham
    Proving a conspiracy to take down Trump will be as hard, maybe harder, than the recently defeated conspiracies.
