Ifg it walks like a Ducksky

I hope that there is a lot going on behind the scenes to protect the world from what is becoming apparent that a United States President is under the control of Russia. 

 

Here are the facts:

 

During the campaign his comment "Russia are you listening..."  Honestly, at the time, I thought that he was kidding, and I  don't believe that this on its own shows anything.  It is only used to compound the rest. 

 

 

June 2016 Donald Trump. Jr is offered a meeting  to meet with a group of Russians, including a Kremlin based lawyer, who promised: "dirt on  Hillary Clinton."  His response to the offer was "If it is what you say, I love it."  He later took the meeting. 

 

 Jared Kushner was also at that meeting but omitted that fact from his application for security clearance. 

 

In a  letter, to Robert Mueller, from Donald Trump, jr explaining this meeting as "about adoption," Donald Trump's Lawyers later admit that the letter was dictated by the President to his son. 

 

In a January 2017 Meeting, Trump requests that FBI Directors James Comey drop all charges against Michael Flynn.

 May 9, 1977- Trump fires Comey.

 

Despite the insane conclusion of William Barr saying that Mueller's report completely cleared the President.  The report actually said that since a sitting President cannot be indicted that they form no conclusion.

 

They did conclude that Russia did interfere and the following have been indicted or served time:

 

    1)  Roger Stone:    One of Trump’s longtime friends and an official for his 2016 campaign, Stone was convicted of one count of obstructing an official proceeding, five counts of making false statements to Congress, and one count of witness tampering

        2)    Michael Flynn: Former National Security Advisor Flynn `            pled guilty to making false statements to the FBI about his                 discussions with a Russian diplomat, Sergey Kislyak. 

              Flynn later tries to undo  the guilty plea and under the new         secretary of State William Barr, The Department of Justice                  moved to drop its prosecution of Flynn. 

3) Paul Manafort:  Manafort served as Trump’s campaign chairman. As a result of the Mueller investigation, he was sentenced to 90 months, or seven-and-a-half years, in prison. He pled guilty to two counts of conspiracy, but he violated his cooperation agreement by lying to investigators.

 

4) Michael Cohen: Trump’s former personnel attorney was sentenced to three years in prison on charges involving campaign finance violations, tax evasion, and lying to Congress.

 

5) George Papadopoulo : In November 2018, the former Trump adviser was ordered to report to prison. He was sentenced to two weeks in prison, but he argued that he should be free on bail due to another case.

 

The court concluded that Papadopoulos failed to demonstrate that he “should continue his current bail status.” He pled guilty to making false statements to the FBI about Russian contacts.

 

 
6) Rick Gates: The former Trump campaign deputy chairman pled guilty in February 2018 to conspiracy and lying to the FBI.
Gates was sentenced late last year to 45 days in jail and he had agreed to cooperate in Mueller’s investigation. 
 

 Putin and Trump have met 5 times:
            1) First Time in Germany  After the meeting he took the translators' notes and ordered him not to disclose anything that took place in the meeting.
             2) The second time was later that night at dinner.   Trump pulled up his chair to P{utin's table to talk without any American witnesses present.
              3) The third time was in Vietnam, where Trump took Putin's word, over that of his intelligence agency that Putin did not interfere in the election.
               4)The fourth time was in Helsinki, they kicked out everyone but the translators.
                 5)The fifth was in Buenos Aires., this occurred after Trump said that he would not meet Putin due to Russian Aggression

He has consistently taken Putin's that the Russians are innocent, of interfering with our elections, offering rewards for the killing of American soldiers,  and now the alleged Russian hack of our computer system.   Each time he has chosen to disregard the conclusions reached by US intelligence and believe Putin.  
Now with just weeks to go in his Presidency, he fires the Secretary of Defense and many under him, he fires the computer whiz from Homeland Security.   He hasn't taken a briefing since October.  
Nobody else in this world thinks that anybody but Russia has done the hacking.

If it walks like Ducksky, and talks like a Ducksky it probably is a Ducksky.
