      When your fallback position is this, why even bother anymore?https://twitter.com/mtracey/status/1071186461075128321 …

      Communicating with "Russian nationals" might be viewed today as inherently criminally suspicious, but way back in the old days of 2015, it generally wasn't. That's a new invention of a political culture warped by 2+ years of nonstop hysterics

      I've been pointing out the absurdity of pretending that communicating with Russian nationals is inherently criminally suspicious from the outset, so there's no "fallback" here.

          I haven’t followed your writings, so I’m not judging your position. Others are retreating to this take—and my background makes it hard for me to believe that anyone could receive such inquiries and approaches from Russians and *not* call the FBI.

          I don't think the Trump Organization -- unlike, say, the intelligence community -- was a culture where dealings with Russians was regarded as inherently suspicious. Their dealings with everyone were sleazy (as real estate tends to be) so nothing stood out about Russians.

          Even if you think communicating with Russian nationals is ok, what about concealing your communications with Russian nationals ?

          It also turns out that all foreign nationals have first amendment rights in the US, but why notice such a bedrock fundamental matter?

          Except you know he wasn’t “communicating” he was accepting material support in exchange for policie changes that helped Russia. Oh let’s not start on emoluments. Or is Trump just a humble innkeeper?
