Trump promised $50M penthouse to buddy Putin

This thread is sad

Trump really could shoot someone on 5th avenueā€¦

We pretty much know the timeline and we know what statements were made by who. Trump stated he had nothing going on with Russia.

He didnā€™t.

Trump haters are pointing to discussions regarding the potential of building a tower in Russia as something going on.

So here we are.

Does anyone reasonable person believe something illegal took place here?

Well maybe in a LIB bizarre world.

Only because it has become obvious that no one promised a $50M penthouse to buddy Putin.

They actually arenā€™t.

Discussions are feelers about the possibility of doing something. Once both parties agree to proceed, then negotiations begin to hammer out the details.

That might not be the case in a LIB bizarre world, butā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦

No. Nothing illegal.

He did lie about it - he said he had noting going on in russia. that was a lie. He had discussions about a tower. Thatā€™s not nothing. He lied

Further, he had his lawyer floating the idea that they would give Putin a condo.

These realities could well have had political ramifications - they knew they. that is why they lied. Cohen told us that.

Your desperate word parsing us noted. The fact is that Trump Org was talking with Kremlin officials who have been found to be directly involved in election meddling, to negotiate a trump tower in Moscow. They lied about it the entire campaign. You lost.

Youā€™re being pedantic because you canā€™t imagine trump ever doing something wrong.

Discussions are a part of the process of doing a deal.

Lol, are you for real?

ā€œTrump had personally signed the letter of intent to move forward on the Trump Tower Moscow plan on Oct. 28, 2015, the day of the third Republican primary debate.ā€

Seriously manā€¦

You are simply making stuff up.

No. I do this thing called ā€œreading the newsā€. From the buzzfeed article in the OP

ā€œTwo FBI agents with direct knowledge of the Trump Tower Moscow negotiations told BuzzFeed News earlier this year that Cohen was in frequent contact with foreign individuals about the real estate venture ā€” and that some of these individuals had knowledge of or played a role in 2016 election meddling. The identity of those individuals remains unknown.ā€

This is too easy. Itā€™s like you havent even read the buzzfeed article.

The article in the OP was TPM not buzzfeed. I read the TPM article and the Buzzfeed article. Iā€™ve also read many others on this particular subject.

As is always the case, there are few facts and lots of spin.

I like how you dance around the fact that the buzzfeed article said 2 FBI agents say there Kremlin officials involved in the Moscow trump tower talks who were involved with meddling :rofl: the OP article is clearly reporting on the buzzfeed article. You obviously havent read it because all your claims contradict the article. You lose!

So you donā€™t like the word ā€œpromisedā€. What word would you use?

And here you are again playing silly games with claims you canā€™t back up.

After I provide you with easily found information, will you send me $5?

Your obstinance towards reality should come with a cost at this point.

Theyā€™ll impeach if they impeach.

Hopefully they will pay attention to the Constitution and impeach only if a high crime or misdemeanor is found. If not, then we may enter into a new period where every time a President is elected who is of a different party than the House and Senate, he can be immediately removed forā€¦ā€œif they impeachā€

Fortunately, that will not be the case now, as a conviction would require 2/3 of the Senate which will not convict without a ā€œhigh crime or misdemeanorā€.

Actually Iā€™m not the one making claims. Iā€™m simply disputing the ones being made.

You actually havenā€™t provided me with anything that I didnā€™t already know.
