Been listening to ABC radio all morning and it sounds bad for Trump based on what's being reported.
The Last report heard said that Flynn was going to testify that Trump directed him to talk to the Russians only hours after the Obama administration implimented new sanctions against them.
Of course I don't know what's legal and what isn't but to my layman's ears this sounds potentially bad.
Does it prove collusion based on what I heard? Not in my opinion but it does speak to the idea that we have one president & one government at a time.
This is not me condemning Trump, it's just me absorbing the breaking news.
I'd ask how you all see it but this board is so over the top partisan I know the responses I'd get before you hit enter. So instead I'm going to create a poll.
Nonsense, talking to the ambassador from another country is not illegal in the least. The whole purpose of having an ambassador is to keep diplomatic relations with their country.
Let’s remember the Hussein started this whole debacle when he suddenly expelled the Russians. Obama was on his way out and he was doing everything he could to sour relations with Russia. It was his retribution for Trump winning the election. And yet we’re supposed to beleive Team Trump are the bad guys for trying to ease the Russians’ anxiety?
They violated the Logan Act--there is actually a law regarding that. You cannot usurp the authority of a sitting President.
But that's not what Trump is in trouble for. His problem is Obstruction of Justice. Trump tried to protect Michael Flynn from prosecution, and he fired Comey over it. That is Obstruction of Justice an impeachable offense.
It didn't help that he went on an NBC interview and admitted that he fired Comey over the Russian investigation.
Two days ago Republican Senators stated that Trump pressured them last summer (while he was under investigation) to drop the Russian investigation.

The elevator really doesn't hit the top floor in Trump's brain. He is infested with arrogant ignorance.
Flynn flipping over and now working with Mueller is very serious. Flynn knew everything that was going on, and he was facing multiple serious charges, and Mueller would have wanted to know what Flynn had on Trump before he reduced his charges down to just lying to the FBI.
I don't think Trump is going to be in office for too much longer.
