The proof of Trump/Russia collusion
Carter Page was a member of the Trump campaign when he talked to the Russians about releasing information that they had on Hillary Clinton. There is now a connection between a member of the Trump campaign and Russia discussing releasing the damaging information that the Russians had on Hillary Clinton to help Donald Trump. The information that the Russians were offering was illegally obtained through hacking, and the Trump campaign seemed more than willing to take illegal campaign assistance from a hostile foreign power.
Trumps claim that no one from his campaign had anything to do with the Russians is a flat-out lie.
The proof is in the Democratic memo in black and white.

(50,989 posts)in all our discussions about this, we HAVE TO point out that, in the end, what the Russians provided was NOT damaging information about Hillary. They never had anything on her because she didn't do anything wrong, but the republicans didn't know that and colluded with the Russians not knowing they were being scammed.

So this isn't some new revelation from other sources. We already knew what the Steele Dossier said.
I think it is more significant that the memo said the FBI was concerned enough about his Russian dealings to meet with Carter Page in March.
