What was it?

Nicole Wallace on MSNBC this morning asks "What was it?" Why did the Trumpsters all lie to the FBI about their contacts with Russians?

I think I know. It was the money. Money from corrupt Russian mobsters oligarchs. Access to their money as investments in projects in America. Ease in laundering their money in American real estate, financial instruments, businesses. Money for political campaigns. Money to buy politicians, pay lobbyists, pay off the debts of judges, politicians and their cronies and relatives. It was, and still is, all about the money.
