Seriously, have any if you looked at this not as a series of discreet events, but as a whole pattern?
An interesting and compelling look from NY Magazine
What If Trump Has Been a Russian Asset Since 1987?
A little snip from the opening. Read the rest at the link and discuss.
The unfolding of the Russia scandal has been like walking into a dark cavern. Every step reveals that the cave runs deeper than we thought, and after each one, as we wonder how far it goes, our imaginations are circumscribed by the steps we have already taken. The cavern might go just a little farther, we presume, but probably not much farther. And since trying to discern the size and shape of the scandal is an exercise in uncertainty, we focus our attention on the most likely outcome, which is that the story goes a little deeper than what we have already discovered. Say, that Donald Trump Jr., Jared Kushner, and Paul Manafort told their candidate about the meeting they held at Trump Tower with a Russian lawyer after they were promised dirt on Hillary Clinton; and that Trump and Kushner have some shady Russian investments; and that some of Trump’s advisers made some promises about lifting sanctions.
But what if that’s wrong? What if we’re still standing closer to the mouth of the cave than the end?
The media has treated the notion that Russia has personally compromised the president of the United States as something close to a kook theory. A minority of analysts, mostly but not exclusively on the right, have promoted aggressively exculpatory interpretations of the known facts, in which every suspicious piece of evidence turns out to have a surprisingly innocent explanation. And it is possible, though unlikely, that every trail between Trump Tower and the Kremlin extends no farther than its point of current visibility.
Frankly, this whole thing is about--and please pardon my necessary crass directness--
panties in a bunch. Really, that's it. The radical feminist revolution has collided with a wall named Donald Trump. He's a strong, unforgiving force of
male dominance--a patriarchal godhead--and a threat to
Roe, LGTBQ, radical Leftist intellectual elitism, and political correctness.
To quote old
Jack Nicholson "You can't handle the truth"
The only words on radical Left tongues is
how dare he! That's the sum of their outrage. Treason, I am afraid, lies in bed only with Clintons and Obamas and governors the nation over who refuse lawful executive orders. And what about the Justice Department.
