SulphagneSocialist posted:The Trump campaign were a bunch of morons who didn't expect to face any sort of scrutiny, but I give the Russian apparatus enough credit to not get caught with its hand in the cookie jar. If anything after the first few months they probably realized dealing directly with the Trump people was too loving risky. The Russians didn't expect Trump to win. They just wanted to make things as close as possible to (further) destabilise political discourse and racial/political tensions in the US. Weaponising American racists was the goal and building a platform to drive wedges into American society, not necessarily getting the White House.

To go back to this tweet for a second: https://twitter.com/realdonaldtrump/status/925006418989715456 I just realized he says there "is" no collusion. Which may be technically true but seems it may lead to a Clintonesque "depends on what the definition of 'is' is" situation.

Sure, but they fear getting primaried even more. The entire Trump/Bannon strategy for the last couple of weeks has been to scare the Republicans into going along with firing Mueller.

So what’s the timeline for how things will go down now? I read Manafort and Gates has a hearing today at 1:30pm EST, but what exactly does that mean and what are the next steps? From my little knowledge of the court system I am assuming that the hearing today will be a super short one where the judge will formally accuse (dunno if that’s the proper word) the two of the 12 charges and then they will both plead not guilty? When do the real stuff start happening?
