Is This the End of "No Collusion"

What do you call sharing polling data with russians?

Alleged.,

Fact…

In a court filing today, Paul Manafort’s lawyers accidentally failed to black out information indicating that while he was Candidate Trump’s Campaign Manager, Manafort shared campaign polling information with a person with ties to Russian intelligence.

If it looks like a collusion and smells like a collusion, it probably is a collusion

Time to retire all those “No Collusion!” posts and fall back to a new defensive position.

Feels like the Army of Northern Virginia in the fall of 1864. Outnumbered, outgunned and consistently outflanked in a war of attrition. Oh, for the good old days when Trump’s position was “no one in my campaign talked to any Russians,” but that line sounds so 2017 these days.

Wow… Poling data… so secret. LMAO… YFM’S…

Can you tell me were I can publicly get polling data for the Trump campaign? Why did Manafort lie? What reason would Russia need Trumps polling data? Did they ask Hilary too?

Collusion is cool.

@mobulis

Then Hillary is innocent since there’s no convictions.

Yep! That’s the way justice works in America. Doesn’t preclude me from referring to the Clinton’s as the Clinton crime family though.

There was no crime.

I was gonna post something way less creative but the gist was the same. Nice job

Collusion is cool.

It is cool and patriots knew what was going on when they didnt and were good with it

Cratic: You have obviously never worked on a political campaign. Any well funded campaign does private polling with both the sampling strategy and questions tightly tied to strategy. There’s plenty of material there that is not public.

Inside you know they’re saying “Please stop, don’t “

[POPCORN]

Booya! Bye bye. Next!

[margaretms2]

Hahaha. Poor Dems.

This is just a clerical redaction error. More paper crimes, created by Mueller.

Suck it, libz!

[margaretms2]

It’s a good time to recall this question, which I believe Mueller gave to Trump as homework:

• What knowledge did you have of any outreach by your campaign, including by Paul Manafort, to Russia about potential assistance to the campaign?

This is one of the most intriguing questions on the list. It is not clear whether Mr. Mueller knows something new, but there is no publicly available information linking Mr. Manafort, the former campaign chairman, to such outreach. So his inclusion here is significant. Mr. Manafort’s longtime colleague, Rick Gates, is cooperating with Mr. Mueller.

I hope Trump answered that one honestly.

This will be a very intriguing part of the report when it is released.

He doesn’t know how to answer anything truthfully. And I’m not sure his legal team does either.

I highly doubt Trump has been truthful with his own lawyers and they’re waterskiing behind everything.

@CaughtInTheMiddle

i don’t think they realize what happened. most will just ignore it.

I don’t think they care what happened. It’s the 5th Avenue scenario, proven out.

[margaretms2]

BTW: Have you seen this awesome defense of Manafort from GOP Senator Lankford? You see, there’s no problem here because Manafort knew Kilimnik before this:

“This person also previously worked for the Russian military, so did most everybody in that, so I don’t see this as a deliberate contact with the Russian government, this is a person that he’d worked with for a decade and a half at that point, in Ukraine,” he said.

The best analogy for this so far: Yeah, baby, I’ve been cheating on you with my ex-girlfriend. But look: I was banging her long before I married you, or even knew you, so it’s all cool, right?

[PeterGriffin]

lol. I hadn’t seen that. Surreal.

Treason is okay as long as it is someone that you have known for a long time.
