So, Republicans, if tRUMP is not found guilty of Collusion....

So, Republicans, if Trump is not found guilty of collusion (which I do not believe to be the case...I most certainly do believe it will be proven that he is guilty of collusion), but if he isn't found guilty, how would you Republicans feel if he's found guilty of money laundering??! Just curious...would the President of the United States being found guilty of money laundering and other financial frauds, be ok with you...would you find that acceptable??!

Doubt you will find any repubs here. And unlikely if they were, they will come out and say so.

That being said, the term 'money laundering' needs a full definition for what it is: blood money washed to destroy its origin which is illicit drugs, gun running, human trafficking, child exploitation, financial fraud and generally money from criminal enterprises of every sort stretching around the globe.

I think the human trafficking/child exploitation factor carries the most loathsome weight, something even the Trumpster's supporters would find hard to defend.

It will be interesting to see the reaction when and if the evidence is ever released to the public.

Btw, the DOJ has determined that collusion is a crime, despite the GOP's argument to the contrary. There were a couple articles on the matter a few weeks ago which conveniently received very little attention by the media.

Trump is in a world of trouble.

laundering and has to defend himself? I think your hypothetical hinges on something that many people don't believe will actually happen.
