Hersh Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Considering Kushner wanted to set up a back channel to Russia through the Russian embassy, this is almost certainly true. Kushner has zero ethics and concern for others. It's why Trump likes him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything really does fit into place if the news is true about the Kushner call. And wasn't Khashoggi over there investigating Kushner/MBS ties at the time of his murder?

No Excuses Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Not buying this story until it's reported by a more reputable source. This seems like the kind of fan fiction that Louise Mensch and Claude Taylor were writing during the Mueller investigation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoCalMike Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 I keep finding it weird that Trump supposedly campaigned on "draining the swamp" but every single action he takes when it comes to investigations tends to be the exact "Swamp-like" behavior he campaigned against. Not that half the country believed anything he said in the first place, but for those that took a chance on him (I am disregarding the true believers) how can they not plainly see this?

I'd say the #1 cause is likely "scandal fatigue". Which the Trump defenders are counting on. And intentionally feeding. Let's face it, compared to the vast majority of the population, the occupants of this thread are much better informed about politics and the situation. (How terrifying is that, boys and girls?) While being able to tell what's going on isn't exactly rocket science, and doesn't exactly require advanced degrees, throwing up your hands, saying "both sides", and just ignoring all of it is even easier. Which, as I said, people are counting on. Yell real loud about conspiracy theories that no idiot could possibly fall for, and hope that most people get tired of all the yelling.

Also a possibility that something like that totally did happen but that the phone call being intercepted it is just wishful thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CousinsCowgirl84 Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 also how has trumps tax return not been leaked by now? Snowden released tons of sensitive information no one cared about (or average citizen) but yet half the nation is going to court to get a peak up the skirt and his tax returns are sealed tighter than an oyster’s fossil. 3 minutes ago, NoCalMike said: Plenty of crooks to go around.
