Wow, Chait, you have nothing here but speculation. Do you have any intellectual honesty at all, or is your hatred of Trump making such honesty impossible? Maybe you should get with Mueller and let him in on your great insights, maybe he will revise his report, issue some indictments, and you will be annointed as the hero you are in your own mind.

Collusion delusion, collusion clinger. Hillary sold 25% of the US Uranium to Russia for $145 million in donations to the Clinton Crime Foundation (exactly half of the $290 million in profit the Uranium One execs made on the transaction). Bill got $500,000 for a speech in Moscow. Carter Paige got $0 for speaking in Moscow. Trump blew up dozens of Russian war planes on the ground in Syria and killed Russian advisors in the attack. Based on the evidence, who is really a mole of the Russians? There is still absolutely no evidence not controlled and/or conjured up by Hillary and the DNC that the Russians hacked Hillary's emails. Wikileaks has firmly denied they came from the Russians.

Please call Robert Mueller immediately and let him know what he missed. I'm sure he'll reopen the investigation. Chait must assume that Barr and Rosenstein are covering up for Mueller's cover up. Paranoia in print. TDS squared.

This is the final paragraph of an article entitled "The Peculiar Logic of the Trump-Russia Scandal Deniers" by Jonathan Chait on January 30, 2019:
"The Trump defenders’ ability to disregard the lying may be their greatest act of credulity. In every twist and turn of the Russia investigation, Trump and his associates have been found to have lied — to Congress, to the FBI, and to the public. Somehow this pattern of behavior has not registered on the right as suspicious in any way. It is just a disconnected sequence of events, the same thing that keeps happening for no apparent reason."
I don't think I've seen a more blatant case of psychological projection. This man is not well.

What actions has Trump taken that indicate he is doing Russia's bidding? The evidence indicates to me that he has been "tougher" on Russia than Obama. Actions speak.

In a word, Chait, pathetic. Your initial article was speculative, and this attempt at redemption is simply more speculation. The negotiations for a Trump Tower in Moscow were not only preliminary, they never rose to the level of serious discussions among the principals. If Chait understood business, he would immediately discern that brokers (which is what Cohen really was) hunt and sniff around trying to find an access point to the principal on the other side. Cohen never made the connection. That Chait thinks this is the basis for "compromise" is laughable. Chait desperately wants to redeem himself from the ridicule heaped upon him following his musings about Russia setting up Trump for compromise since 1987. His current article not only fails at redemption, it reinforces the conclusion that Chait is exhibit A of commentators of the left today - defensive, self-absorbed, unserious (meaning unwilling to set aside their certainty and speculative fervor and engage in serious analysis of the facts). Why would I ever take Chait seriously. He offers nothing more than his opinion. I challenge Chait or any of his acolytes to cite specific facts - not inferences - supporting the conclusion that Putin has, and has used, compromising information on Trump to influence his policies toward Russia.

You seem to ignore one important fact. Trump, his campaign and everyone around had massive Russian contacts which they all lied about. Manafort gave polling data to the Russians and we know there was targeting of very specific areas of the country by fakes from the Russians. You nor any else except Mueller and Barr know exactly what they uncovered but hasn't been made public. You stated Trump's negotiation for Trump Tower was all preliminary and no big deal but again they all lied about it and covered up Trumps letter of intent, you ignore Cohen and Sater's emails about possible financing which involved a sanctioned Russian bank. Certainly sounds like a reason to manipulate Trump to get rid of sanctions to me.

The ravings of the right wing loons commenting notwithstanding, Chait is almost certainly correct, and it really could not be more obvious that this is what Trump is. We have not even seen the report, and the right wing propaganda machine has been popping the champagne, conveniently ignoring what is so painfully clear, let alone the statement in Barr's "report" "does not exonerate".
This is just getting started - the truth ALWAYS comes out - and we are about to see Trump to be the immoral unethical scoundrel that he is, whether or not he be prosecutable.

Guys like Chait are like the Japanese soldiers who hid in caves 40 years after the war, refusing to believe they'd lost (with thanks to Michael Goodwin of the New York Post, from whom I cribbed this analogy).
