First, Steele is from a nation that is our closest ALLY
You're allowed to get Russian dirt, as long as it passes thru the hands of a Brit first...…..DERP!
The OP, while correct in his assertions has missed the biggest difference of all: Hillary Clinton never met Christopher Steele or any of his sources and had no idea who provided the information. Hillary didn’t even meet with or hire Fusion GPS.
Neither Steele nor his sources knew who would ultimately receive the information because neither Steele nor his sources ever had any contact with the buyer. The Clinton campaign asked their lawyers to get the opposition research. Their lawyers hired Fusion GPS and Fusion gave the job to Steele.
Junior and other members of the Trump campaign met with people they were told were Russian government officials for the purpose of getting “dirt” on Hillary Clinton and assistance in their election campaign from the Russian government. Soliciting help from a foreign government in a US election campaign, is illegal.
You have to be wilfully blind to equate the Clinton Campaign's purchase of the Steele Dossier o Junior meeting with Russians to get dirt on Clinton.
Hillary didn’t even meet with or hire Fusion GPS.
If info from foreigners is an "illegal campaign contribution", the Dems got illegal info and Trump Jr didn't.
Neither Steele nor his sources knew who would ultimately receive the information because neither Steele nor his sources ever had any contact with the buyer.
At a certain point, the Obama DOJ was paying him. Steele wasn't aware of that either?
Her campaign did, Podesta’s were in business with Russians and Clinton Foundation took $$$ From Russians and states that support terrorism. Clinton’s are scum.
What does any of what you posted have to do with the Trump Campaign holding secret meetings in Trump Tower with Russian government agents offering to help elect Trump.
As for the Podesta’s work in Russia, what does that have to do with anything? Were the Podesta’s holding secret meetings with Russian government officials and lying about the meetings? Were they hiding millions in off-sgire
Were the Podesta’s hiding millions of dollars in off-shore accounts and not declaring the income? Did they scam banks and other lenders to borrow more money?
Money donated to Clinton Foundation doesn’t go to the Clintons. No member of the Clinton Family receives a salary from the Foundation. Moneys paid by Russia individuals or entities never went to the Clintons. Even speaking fees were paid directly to the Foundation and both the payments and their final disposition were reviewed by the auditors and the IRS.
The FBI also reviewed Clinton Foundation finances, and Judicial Watch filed a pay for play complaint that triggered an investigation. None of these investigations found any irregularities. This is is sharp contrast to the Trump Foundation which has been shut down due to several instances of financial irregularities and illegal fundraising.
The Clintons may be slime but they didn’t sell out their country to Russia and then lie about it. That would be Trump.
