collusion was the colloquial term. the rosenstein memo naming mueller special counsel said he was looking for links and/or coordination between the russian government and individuals associated with the trump campaign. actual criminal charges would have been "conspiracy to.."

I would say that a campaign manager giving data to a known intelligence asset qualifies. But then, I actually read the report.

Didn't appear to be much beyond that, but that in and of itself should be enough, IMO, to reach the conclusion that "yes, collusion happened"

The Office did not identify evidence of a connection between Manafort's sharing polling data and Russia's interference in the election ... [and] the investigation did not establish that Manafort otherwise coordinated with the Russian government on its election-interference efforts.

When are you going to give up the Trump/Russia collusion conspiracy theory, djohn?

aw. you want to keep deflecting. I get it. Maybe for an encore you will tell me how a few hundred votes in a special election in Kenucky is somehow a meaningful trend.

Tell me, did Mueller indicate that he thought he got all the evidence he could about this? Or did he note some limitations on what he could get?

You left those qualifiers out, because you want to lie through cherry-picking.

A statement that the investigation did not establish particular facts does not mean there was no evidence of those facts.

...
Further, the Office learned that some of the individuals we interviewed or whose conduct we investigated — including some associated with the Trump Campaign — deleted relevant communications or communicated during the relevant period using applications that feature encryption or that do not provide for long-term retention of data or communications records. In such cases, the Office was not able to corroborate witness statements through comparison to contemporaneous communications or fully question witnesses about statements that appeared inconsistent with other known facts.

Accordingly, while this report embodies factual and legal determinations that the Office believes to be accurate and complete to the greatest extent possible, given these identified gaps, the Office cannot rule out the possibility that the unavailable information would shed additional light on (or cast in a new light) the events described in the report.

Why have Trash and his mafiya, for 3 years, been lying, "forgetting", hiding, obstructing their connections to Russians from any and all investigations?

Why did Trash hire some many people with deep histories with Russia?


Will Trump Be Meeting With His Counterpart — Or His Handler?

A plausible theory of mind-boggling collusion.

[cherry picks some more]

Cherry picking, suppressing evidence, or the fallacy of incomplete evidence is the act of pointing to individual cases or data that seem to confirm a particular position while ignoring a significant portion of related cases or data that may contradict that position. It is a kind of fallacy of selective attention, the most common example of which is the confirmation bias.[1][2] Cherry picking may be committed intentionally or unintentionally. This fallacy is a major problem in public debate

HOW IRAN BECAME A NEW EPICENTER OF THE CORONAVIRUS OUTBREAK

Harirchi dismissed as hype an Iranian lawmaker’s claim that

fifty people had already died from covid-19.

“I will resign if the numbers are even half or a quarter of this,”

Iran opposed quarantines,

he said, because they belonged to an era before the First World War—

“to the plague, cholera, stuff like that.”

The next day, Harirchi confirmed in a video—from quarantine—that he had contracted coronavirus.

Trump hadn't slept for at least 'a day and a half' before his coronavirus press conference

Mulvaney while speaking at Friday's Conservative Political Action Conference declared that

the president basically "never sleeps,"

having apparently barely done so before addressing the nation about the coronavirus crisis earlier this week.

Although Mulvaney chalked up Trump's wacky sleep schedule to

his desire to get the most out of his time in office,

This is not true. CDC developed test and open sourced it. A number of other countries developed tests. They all have accuracy problems. CDC first batch shipped was bad because of a bad batch of chemicals, that's what caused the delay.

Go point by point and list all of the significant portions of related data that contradicts the below positions.

1. "The investigation did not establish that members of the Trump Campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities."

Trump DID propose cuts to the CDC and NIH.
The cuts did not take place.
Would these cuts have affected our response? I dunno...

So are you thanking Congress Nathan?

Trump did not create this mess but he is the last person I trust to handle it wisely. It would be rough on any president however.

So Step away and shut up. Let Mike comment now.
