Trump had "nothing to do with Russia"

[theHawk]

What Trump ass-kissers need to contend with.....Questions:

1.Did Trump repeatedly state that he had NO dealings with Russia?....yes or No?

2. Does this potential deal in 2015-2016 NEGATE that he had no dealings with Russia? Yes or No?

3. Were sanctions imposed on Russia during Trump's negotiations with Russia? yes or No?

Address the above questions.......and you too, right wingers, will find yourself in the little mess facing the Trumpster.....

1. Can you name what deal Trump made with Russia? Specifics. You have none.

2. Was any deal ever made? Nope.

3. Did any new sanctions apply to the business Trump was interested in? Even if they did, did he make a deal and build a new business there? Nope and Nope.

oh goodness! And this:

Trump Organization exec reportedly emailed Putin aide about Moscow project during campaign

Trump’s personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, hires his own lawyer in Russia probe

I asked the question on another thread......BUT,

with the above in mind, were there SANCTIONS against Russia not already in place when the Trumpster was trying to work out this deal?

the sanctions were put on Russia in 2014 so the answer is YES, the sanctions on Russia were in place before this Cohen and Sader deal...

Didn't stop $7.5BILL in US EXPORTS to Russia in 2016. You're VERY sure that building a tower in Moscow would have been sanctioned. But there's no evidence it would have. Or even no evidence it was actually PLANNED..

Thought crimes. That really truly ALL you got here. BUT -- if you think the country ought to stop and put their collective thumbs up their asses --- like you all are doing -- keep it up. Your party and movement will pay COMPLETELY in the next elections..

it's a pattern of lying about his Russia connections and a QUID PRO QUO that could have taken place...that Mueller is looking in to....

Also,there are the meetings of Trump's team, Kushner specifically meeting with a Russian gvt bank that was sanctioned and two totally different stories told on what they met about, and there is Deutsche Bank connections who were just caught money laundering for the Russians, and the unusual loans to Trump and Kushner by them, and Wilbur Ross's connection to the Cypress Bank, another money laundering hub of the Russians who Trump hired as our Commerce Secretary and is the person who arranged the purchase of the house Trump sold for double the market value and more than double what he paid... to the Russian Oligarch, and the Russian Mob living in his Tower, and the strange communications between Alpha Bank, another Russian bank and a Trump server the FBI was investigating...etc etc etc.....

There IS SOMETHING FISHY going on, and Mueller and team, is on to it....whatever nefarious thing 'it' may be....and hopefully, we will get the truth someday when they are done....

This isn't some made up thing out of thin air FlaCalTenn!

THIS is a thought crime. That's what it is.

You have all the patience in the world to following US leadership connections to Russian Banks.. EXCEPT for Podesta and his representation of SBerBank DURING THE CAMPAIGN. Don't think Podesta was getting pressure to get favorable treatment from HIS candidate?

Why is that?

You are misinformed, completely!!!!!

The Podesta Group has ZERO to do with Clinton.....zip, nada, nothing..... not a part of her campaign....

So what is even remotely close to being the same???

You bought in to desperate right wing spin....

Trump attorney reached out to Kremlin to pursue Moscow Trump Tower project - CNNPolitics

What part of this don't you understand????

"The Trump Moscow proposal was simply one of many development opportunities that the Trump Organization considered and ultimately rejected," Cohen said in a written statement.​

Maxine Waters is so convinced that Bush Colluded with the Russians ,,,yet she never had any evidence,,,,just like she assumed tha Putin invaded Ukraine and dropped a few Mother Of All Bombs on them

waters is a ranking member on the house financial services committee, which is participating in the investigations into russia's interference. she has been privy to classified info.... & you aren't.

She also is a lying Democrat.
I hate to break it to you folks but we knew about Trump owning a multi-national corporation decades ago.
Just releasing shit about their considering building a tower in Russia isn't a secret.
And none of this is or ever was against the law.
This is just old news that the media is releasing that is intended to push their fucked up Russia collusion scam.

I don't think it was against the law to talk, I think it's just another piece of the Russian/Trump connection and possible quid pro quo.

Plus Trump lied about all of his connections....prosecutors and investigators take that as, having something to hide and will dig deeper.

OMG a real estate company wants to build a hotel in a foreign country!

Impeach!

Wanted to build in spite of the law. No, don't impeach, convict for treason.

I don't know whether Trump erecting a hotel or opening a resort in Russia would violate U.S. sanctions against Russia. It could be that what Trump was doing did indeed violate the sanctions because it seems his firm's dealings may have involved Putin himself, or perhaps one of the "designated" Putin cronies.

I'll be honest. I don't have enough details about what Trump Organization's attorney(s) did, and I haven't fully read the sanctions detail.

• Very high level Russia sanctions summary
• Sanctions Overview
• Sanctions Text
• Sanctions "portal" containing supplemental materials, guidance, lists and reference materials, etc.

What would violate it.... is if Trump was trying to use a government/Putin connected Russian SANCTIONED bank

AMERICAN COMPANIES OPERATING IN RUSSIA | Association of Accredited Public Policy Advocates to the European Union

How many of the above companies were BOTH in violation of the sanctions AND running for the WH while claiming NO dealings with Russia???........Simple and direct question, no?

The answer is none of them are in violation of any sanctions, regardless if they had a CEO or owner running for any public office.

If he inquired about setting up business there, and never got a response or told he couldn't, and he never did set up a business there, then yes that qualifies as having no dealings with the Russian government. Simple and direct.

So by that reasoning

Attempted murder is not a crime
Attempted robbery is not a crime
Attempted burglary is not a crime
Etc etc etc?

80 times Trump talked about Putin



Trump business associate, Felix Sater, wrote a series of e-mails to Trump’s lawyer, Michael Cohen, in which he boasted about his ties to Putin and predicted that building a Trump Tower in Moscow would be a political boon to Trump’s candidacy.


“Buddy our boy can become president of the USA and we can engineer it,” Sater wrote in an e-mail. “I will get all of Putins team to buy in on this, I will manage this process.”

The e-mails show that, from the earliest months of Trump’s campaign, his associates viewed close ties with Moscow as a political advantage. Those ties are now under investigation by the Justice Department and multiple congressional committees.

“I will get Putin on this program and we will get Donald elected,” Sater wrote.

[AntonToo]

Trump setting up business in Russia would be a HUGE conflict of interest possibly impairing his ability to do what is best for America when it came to Russia, because it would be bad for his pocket.

Having said that, in 2015 and even 2016 I doubt Trump actually thought he is likely to win the Presidency.

Still, he DID lie repeatedly about the extent of his Russian interests, contacts, plans and communications - it could be because he is simply a compulsive liar, it could also mean he is knee deep in cover up or some combination of the two.

It's Muller's job to get to the bottom of this.

Hey Care4all .. How many of those actually SANCTIONED oligarchs and Russian Mafioso had SIGNIFICANT assets and projects with SBerBank? Inquiring minds NEED to know....

You truly do not get what's going on in the Russia investigation....

Try reading something.....start with the Washington post....going back 6 months to now on their Russian / Trump connections...then the new York Times, then the Wall Street Journal, then watch Maddow videos on it.....

As long as you keep yourself confined to your TRUMP bubble....You will stay uninformed.

/----/ From your link:
"The Trump Moscow proposal was simply one of many development opportunities that the Trump Organization considered and ultimately rejected," Cohen said in a written statement.
"In late January 2016, I abandoned the Moscow proposal because I lost confidence that the prospective licensee would be able to obtain the real estate, financing and government approvals necessary to bring the proposal to fruition," he added. "It was a building proposal that did not succeed and nothing more."

When it comes to opening his dumb mouth Trump has all the foresight of a squirrel. If it helps him in the moment, he'll grab that nut and run with it with very poor consideration of what it could land him in long term. He is very primitive in that way.

Amazingly, it probably will not have effect at all.

For more than a year and half, we have known he is a pathological liar. We've known he is a thief, a cheat, a criminal and downright dumb, and his "base" love it.

Many are learning they made a terrible mistake but a lot continue to ignore the facts.

A steady stream of recent email disclosures that detail what Trump and his minions were actually doing during the 2016 campaign has taken the wind out of those arguments.

Law enforcement and intelligence officials also have publicly stated that they believe that the Kremlin worked to tilt the 2016 election in the president's favor, and Robert Mueller's team at the Justice Department is examining whether the Trump campaign colluded with the Kremlin. As a result, the Trump family's business and financial operations are facing more federal scrutiny than ever.

The business aspects of Mueller's investigation are significant because they could establish whether or not the president or his campaign team were looking for financial quid pro quos in exchange for possibly colluding with the Kremlin. (A similar issue is dogging the president's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, who met with Chinese and Russian financiers last year as he tried to bail out his family's investment in a struggling skyscraper on Fifth Avenue.)

Trump's partnership with Sater also presents lots of interesting questions.
