    ” There is no evidence showing that Trump sold anything to Russia. Trump’s critics have long accused him of working with Russia, but various investigations have not confirmed that.

    EDIT- ROFL @ all the downvotes by all the ignorant knuckleheads that think that their definition of justice overrides simple logic. She has no evidence to support this. It says so in the article. Which is what I quoted. It’s right fucking there. Yet everyone here has come to the conclusion that it MUST have happened. It couldn’t have NOT happened. Despite no evidence….

    and those same people are crying about how Trump isn’t following the rules of the law?

    Imagine if we persecuted him based on what she said. Yeah. Wet dream, right?

    Just remember. To live in a worked where we persecute based on no evidence, you have to accept it both ways.

      It’s true that there isn’t evidence that he sold anything, but let’s look at what we do know:

      The whereabouts of the binder are currently unknown as it went missing during the last days of Trump’s presidency, Reuters’ source said.

      The info in the binder:

      The binder in question contained raw intelligence that the United States and its North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) allies collected on Russia’s alleged election interference in 2016, when Trump beat his Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton for the presidency, among other documents, according to Reuters who spoke with a source familiar with the matter.

      Trump would be very high on that suspect list although, in my mind, the likely conclusion of him taking it is that those documents were destroyed rather than sold.

      I would counter that, given the timeline and information, it’s unlikely that anyone else would want to take those documents.
