Little by little America continues to discover just how deep President Trump, his campaign and his family is involved with Russia concerning the 2016 Presidential campaign and election. The latest revelation according to the New York Times was Donald Trump Jr's meeting with a foreign agent for Russia for the purpose of finding "dirt" on Hillary Clinton. That is called collusion with Russia and a possible violation of federal election laws. It was later announced that Trump Jr. has hired an attorney to represent himself in the matter. So far, President Trump, Vice President Pence, Trumps son in law Jared Kushner, Donald Trump Jr, former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn and others connected to the Trump campaign have hired attorneys to represent them concerning the Russian matter.
What a sad time in America when the President, some of his top aids and family members show more loyalty to a foreign government (one that tried to influence the election in Trump's favor according to American intelligence) than the United States. Trump's campaign and his Presidency has been one big lie, aided by some family members and others whose only interest is personal gain. After Donald Trump Jr's meeting with the Russian agent was exposed, he tried to say all candidates try to find "dirt" on their opponents. But caught flak for that comment from past GOP campaign managers who said such a meeting would never have taken place on their watch and that the meeting tells where Trump's loyalty lies.
PolitiDose, in past commentary pointed out months ago that the Trump-Russian affair would continue to unfold over time and that the worst has yet to come. The next story that breaks could be the BIG ONE. In the mean time the evidence keeps building the case for collusion and the dark side of a President unfit to be in office and tainted to the point never before seen in an American Presidency. It truly is a sad time in America when such a person freely chooses a foreign adversary over his own country.
Former President Obama and Hillary Clinton are so much head and heels over Trump in every way possible. Their loyalty to the United States and the positions they served in were honorable in every way. History is proving they gave of themselves for the good of the country and its people in a positive way. What they stood for is missed and lacking in the present administration. What a shame and shame for America and its people.
