    I don't think investigations are typically launched to determine what is cool.

    I already said that I would be disturbed. Is that the end game; make people disturbed? If not, what is the goal?

    1. Tell me how they meddled.

    2. Tell me how Trump requested / orchestrated or was even aware of it.

    3. Present proof.

    I'm having some fun tonight, but I'm willing to look at anything you've got. But as of now, and as of eveeything that's known, you have absolutely no basis for believing this.

    So we're not pretending? I thought VolDad said we were.

    So as to determine and endgame, which is evidently a determination of coolness.

    I don't know why stating the endgame or goal is so hard to express. Why dance around the question?

    I will start. VolDad, there is no endgame or goal other than to pretend that Trump and/or his staff did something nefarious for as long as possible.

    Same as Nixons, attempt to cover up via redirecting intelligence assets and through the very words of the head of the executive branch of the United States Government.

    Really?!? The articles of impeachment against Nixon were for obstruction of justice, abuse of power, and contempt of Congress.

    How would Trump calling Putin qualify for any of this.

    Do you think that you could be charged with any of these crimes if you called Puttin and asked him to torpedo Trump. Of course not.

    Tenny, you just don't get it. The Democrats candidate for President Lost. Therefore something illegal must have happened. It is the only explanation.

    Articles of Impeachment and "a crime" are not the same. You asked for what the crime would be based on having a foreign power interfere with elections. And that would be similar to Nixon.

    If you had asked articles of impeachment, I'd say more likely those of Clinton.

    I otherwise offered no commentary or opinion. I simply answered a question.

    So asked and answered.

    Articles of impeachment are the crimes he was alleged to have committed. You have nothing to back charging Trump with a crime. He is able to ask Putin to go after Clinton just are you are able to ask Putin to go after Trump.

    Manafort? Invest ill-gotten gains in NY real estate? Money laundering? Russian mob connections?

    But nothing to see here. Coincidence with the casino deal, I'm sure.
