Bob Woodward said that he was unable to find evidence of collusion between Trump and the Russians in the 2016 election.

Why do you suppose that is?

  • I'm researching different parties before mid-terms.  I may be wasting my vote, but I'm so tired of the politics.

    Probably because he wasn’t able to find any, if he was indeed looking. We don’t know that there is any to find. Wouldn’t it be a relief to know beyond a doubt?

    If there is truly none, Trump stands to be vindicated*, so what is he so rabidly insecure about?
    Oh, right,...that’s his way: Look “strong”.

    Yes.  Then we could devote our entire day to worrying about what others did back in high school.  ;)

    Not something I find particularly compelling. But to each, his own.

    No kidding.  Well I don't need Bob Woodward or any other journalist or whatever he is to tell me what I already know.

    Maybe a Causal Connection - in law, a connection between the behavior and actions (or inaction) of a person and the consequences of such behavior or actions. This post was edited by Beans/SilentGeneration at September 19, 2018 4:40 PM MDT

    What part of no evidence of collusion is not clear? "Maybe a casual connection" is meaningless.

    He didn't dig deep enough.
    Mueller will bring it...

    Perhaps, but Woodward has no axe to grind in Trump's favor, and he has a pretty fair track record with Watergate and All the President's Men.
