Pro-Trump pundit: New reports could prove path to collusion between Trump and Russia
By Matthew Chapman | July 3, 2017
Right-wing MSNBC commentator Hugh Hewitt,......................................
.......................................
Hewitt is so desperate to make Trump look good that he once even apologized for asking Trump a foreign policy question he could not answer.
And while Hewitt has spent months denying there is any evidence Trump was involved with Russias interference in our election once calling the allegations baseless on Sunday, Hewitt finally admitted there is a possible way Trumps inner circle could have been working with Russian hackers.
During a panel discussion on Meet the Press, Hewitt noted that new reports from the Wall Street Journal and Lawfare show a path to collusion, if the evidence bears out..................................

Thank GOD the number of people so inclined is small, or is it?

(4,987 posts)Russian military is too big to take on. So only real option we have is economic sanctions. However Russia probably has more natural resources than any other country. And so it will be difficult to subdue Russia economically.
IMO, the best option is to reach a geo-political mutual consensus which serves both countries national interest.

(4,490 posts)Economically speaking at least. Militarily of course, large scale war is pretty much off the table when you have the number of nukes that they do.

(4,987 posts)even if Russia GDP is much smaller than China, Japan, US & EU, their vast natural resources from oil, nat gas, coal, wood, iron, copper, gold, silver, etc the growing world economy is hungry for. They can sell it on black market.
After the Crimea invasion, Europe tried sanctions, and got nowhere.
A resource poor country like Japan or UK would be much more susceptible to trade sanctions.

(65,227 posts)has already been a RW talking point for the past week or so. Brit Hume and other FOX idiots, as well as print and radio RWers and RW mouths on TV panels, have been spewing in concert to lay that lying groundwork, because they rightly fear that collusion will be proven.

(50,918 posts)we haven't gotten yet that proves collusion, and all these Trump(R) minions are trying to get out of the way before it is released. This way they can say later that they called it right.
