The question has changed now. It's no longer "was there collusion?", it's now "how much collusion was there?" ~ Trevor Noah of the Daily show, re the email chain discussing the Russian government's support for Trump winning the presidency, 7/11/2017.
In addition to colluding with Russia, DJT also colluded with Satan to win the predisency. "Predisent", not being a misspelling of "president", but an alternate spelling of the word that means the president is illegitimate (I assume).
As for DJT colluding with Old Scratch, Trump's drunk TV wife (as per Stephanie Miller), Jeanine Pirro (someone who ran for office 5 times herself) said (on her Fox Nooz program "Justice with Judge Jeanine") "if the Devil called me and said he wanted to set up a meeting to give me opposition research on my opponent - I'd be on the first trolley to Hell to get it".
This was in regards to Trump Jr. taking a meeting with Natalia Veselnitskaya (and 4 other Russians, including money launderer Irakly Kaveladze) because she said (via email) that she had dirt on HRC. "I love it" DJT Jr replied.
"...any politician who tells you otherwise is a bald faced liar" Pirro added, dismissing the "Trump Russia collusion" allegations. Although this is patently false. John F. Kennedy rebuffed Nikita Khrushchev's offer of help (to defeat Nixon) when "Russian operatives... attempted to contact Kennedy campaign officials during the 1960 election" (Why Russian Officials Tried to Help John F. Kennedy Win the Presidency).
Additionally, when someone sent the Al Gore campaign "a videotape of George W. Bush rehearsing for the upcoming debate", Thomas Downey (person who was playing gwb in debate practice opposite Gore and individual to whom the VHS was sent), immediately (as soon as he realized what was on the tape) turned it over to the FBI (Someone Gave Al Gore "Dirt" On George Bush. Here's What His Campaign Did).
Trump Jr, on the other hand, in response to an email with the subject line "Russia - Clinton - Private and Confidential", agreed to take the meeting. Even though the email (sent by Rob Goldstone, an English publicist who manages the career of singer-songwriter Emin Agalarov, the son of Russian oligarch Aras Agalarov) stated that the info was being provided as "part of Russia and it's government's support for Mr. Trump" (Donald Trump Jr. releases email chain on his Russian meeting).
So what if Natalia Veselnitskaya didn't actually provide the dirt on HRC that was mentioned in the email (if she didn't, and I'm certainly not taking her, or DJT Jr's word for it)? If Don Jr had responded to an email promising sex with an underage girl, but when he got to the meeting he encountered Chris Hansen instead, would we accept a claim from him that no crime was committed? What is important is that Trump Jr. INTENDED to collude. "I love it" he said!
And, YES, the meeting violated campaign finance law, as Trump Jr. INTENDED to accept a "contribution or donation of money or other thing of value, or to make an express or implied promise to make a contribution or donation". The "other thing of value" being info damaging to HRC's campaign (Watchdogs to DOJ: Trump Jr. meeting broke campaign finance laws).
BTW, as per Cenk Uygur of The Young Turks, it "sure looks like Trump knew his son was meeting with Russians".
Trump Jr, who took Paul Manafort and Jared Kushner with him to the meeting, insists that his father was unaware of the meeting until recently. Sure, that's believable. Not. How much collusion was there? IMO there was a LOT.
Remember that money launderer Irakly Kaveladze was at the Don Jr. meeting? Apparently special prosecutor Robert Mueller is looking into Trump's finances (Confirmed: subpoenas have been sent to banks regarding Donald Trump and money laundering).
Trump Sr, who, due to his many bankruptcies, could no longer obtain loans from US banks, turned to Russia to keep his empire afloat. Russian oligarchs and mobsters told Trump they'd loan him what he needed - if he'd launder their dirty money. Launding the Russians accomplished by overpaying for Trump properties (With Trump and Russia, it's all about the money).
This, I suspect, is how Muller will bring down Trump. Explaining why Trump indicated that Muller looking into his finances might be something he would not tolerate. Doing so would "be a violation of what the investigation was supposed to focus on" Trump told the NYT (Trump says Mueller could cross a "red line" by digging into his finances — and he now appears to be doing just that).
On the other hand, Trump may be colluding with The Devil and Satan will come to Trump's aide (somehow preventing an impeachment). Bottom line here - if colluding with Lucifer was an option - you KNOW Trump would do it. Jeanine Pirro clearly thinks it would be great.
"Those who supported Republican candidates in recent elections, such as white born-again or evangelical Christians and white Catholics, strongly supported Donald Trump" PEW reports. A fact (I suspect) which caused Satan to smile broadly at his successful deception (convincing supposed Christians to vote for the Antichrist).
