First, stop saying collusion. That's not a crime here (that's more like Verizon and Sprint trying to set prices or something.). It's conspiracy. Words are important and let's use them correctly.
Nope. Media was pimping this failed narrative as Russian Collusion. I'll continue to use that term. And yes, I understand collusion is not a crime.
Second, I agree that the goal posts were moved but I never for one moment thought the MUELLER investigation was about impeachment. Sure, the underlying motive behind anything the Democrats have done are to that effect. But I don't think the Trump Administrations own investigation had impeachment in mind.
Huh? Muellers' recent presser was a wink and a nod towards impeachment. Even blind ass jellybelly saw that. Muellers' job wasn't' to absolve anyone of a crime but to determine/find evidence for prosecution...and since a President can't be prosecuted, he was to find a reason for impeachment. How are you not connecting these dots?
Third, AZ is incorrect, the Steele Dossier wasn't the catalyst. Multiple investigations, including one by the Republican House has said as such.
The Dossier was a critical part of the FISA warrant. Pretty sure that's been covered on here multiple times (with sources and links). I'm not going to go back and dig it up, feel free to do your own homework.
Fourth, I don't see the Republicans putting country before party and impeaching any Republican President. For the record, I feel the same about the Democrats. They won't hand over that sort of victory to the opposition. I'm extremely jaded so take that for what it's worth.
There are plenty of R's that hate Trump. If Mueller found the goods then best believe they would not have hesitated to vote for impeachment.
Fifth, who said anything about entrapment? I'm not following you there. I could've missed some posts, especially if it's something that came from SK.
The whole Papadopulos thing was a set up. They would have gotten him on something more than a process crime if there was any "there there". Here is a good interview with him about the whole situation, its worth a listen IMO.

Sixth, I appreciate the respectfulness of our back and forth on this. It's proof that 2 people, with varying opinions can have a civil discussion.
