Does that make them complicit and is that a crime? Of course Pence is too. Is that a criminal offense and is that considered part of a cover up?

7. Might not matter. If there's Russian mob money involved, there MIGHT could be a RICO case

And if there's a RICO case, it won't matter Dick All how much paper they burned or how many files they deleted.

If you can charge ONE, you can charge ALL.

I dont. Not by a damn sight=)

Slowly comes into focus (for those younger folk)

Trump Soho, Russian mobster involvement, Bayrock – Satuer – check

special investigator, with investigator power to follow the money – check

everybody in the Donald Trump administration – Manafort – Flynn – Kushner – Sessions – Trump – Stone – lawyered up criminally – check

any law they could think of to suppress the voting abilities of others. Colluding with Russia seems to be the latest action to get Republicans in office and now they do not know how to govern, WTH.

I swore the fix was in. Even though I was too young to know anything about politics 15 – 16 years old.

Before the election, so Reagan, you won't take crap.
