Do you at least remember when Trump said something to the affect of wanting or hoping that the Russians did perform hacks?
He was saying if the Russians hacked Clintons email server, he wanted them to give us copies of Clintons emails. Which is not an incorrect thing to do, considering the emails belong to the american people. And she criminally did not do so.

If so, then you can't pretend that people are making up the idea of collusion out of thin air.
Not saying there is any evidence of collusion, but you can't pretend that idea comes out of left field.
Bless your heart, you didn't recognize a jab a Hillary over her 30,000 missing emails and the DNC's stupidity of falling for a phishing hack? Poor child.

RE: Comey Testimony Thursday 6/8
If you inserted Hillary for Trump and these exact same scenarios happened Clinton would be impeached and the loudest voices in this room would be screaming for it. If the House was under D control we would have impeachment. It's a political process and right now R's control those levers and Teump has eliminated all of the investigative threats to him. He's won.

Basic civics. People are just ignorant. Comey is the poster boy for the reason impeachment works the way it does.

RE: Comey Testimony Thursday 6/8
I understand that. But he created the conceptual linkage between himself and Russian hacking.
If he had never said that ...
Guys, I'm not trying to justify any claims of collusion or suggest evidence of collusion. I'm merely pointing a simple thing out.
I wish you guys would give me the benefit of the doubt, sometimes, and not assume my intentions are always to bash what you believe in.

If thats true then you must concede that the democrats have created conceptual linkage with irrational thought and behavior to the point of sedition.

SK, all I was pointing out is that he did say that. So I don't agree that collusion was pulled out of a hat of "random ways to attack Trump".
Again, not justifying collusion as a valid idea and not saying there is any evidence of collusion.

by your own logic, we all have a "conceptual linkage" because we have also made comments about Russia...

No, Comey eliminated all of the investigative threats to Trump.

RE: Comey Testimony Thursday 6/8
Just to clear things up:
James Comey colluded with Loretta Lynch and media to rig the election (they failed), take out a sitting President or destroy him politically, and mislead the public. All because he believed a fake dossier generated by a UK citizen and paid for by the Clintons?

So did Hillary ever create any "conceptual linkage" between herself and Russia? How about between herself and the Clinton Foundation? What about between herself and AG Lynch when her husband met with her on that tarmac?

I honestly hope Obama or Bill Clinton himself was not involved and it was all Hillary. I don't like them, but I'd rather not have a president be attached to this historical eyesore.

Conceptual linkage is as ridiculous as the democrat pundits getting mad about what Trump "didn't" say or how Trump "didnt" disavow every kook that claims affiliation with him. It is a disengenious rhetorical trick for the weak minded

Well even our resident conspiracy theorist isn't happy with Comey.
Aside from revealing that President Trump is guilty of exactly nothing but winning an election, James Comey sure did reveal a lot about himself. His feelings are easily hurt, he gets scared in Trump's presence, he gets nauseated, is weak, gets confused and stunned. He is sorry his workforce had to hear what Trump said about the FBI, that it is in disarray. He sounded like a college snowflake on almost any American college campus in need of a safe space.
After a lifetime as a lawyer, U.S. attorney for the Southern District, U.S. deputy district attorney, and corporate lawyer, this is a man who never should have been appointed as director of the FBI. He does not have the temperament for the job. We learned yesterday that he unlawfully leaked his own memo, property of the FBI, to the press to "spur a special prosecutor" and cover his own backside. Why not turn it over to acting director McCabe or the DOJ? Because he's malicious. He likely leaked a whole lot more to the press that is so in love with anonymous sources. The guy was positively Machiavellian in his attempt to smear Trump and protect himself. But Machiavelli would not be proud; Comey was too clever by half. He essentially admitted that Trump had done nothing wrong beyond making Comey uncomfortable, being a compassionate man regarding Michael Flynn, and not using the approved vernacular or prescribed handshake of the D.C. establishment.
