    Default Lewandowski: Russia Colluders Should 'Go to Jail' for Life

    If someone is found to have actually done so, then I would next like to see specifically what they did before making a decision on the length of any punishment. But if someone is found to have clearly done so, then I too stand behind a call for a serious sized sentence. So long as that evidence is pure and severe, then call for their heads, even if it's Trump himself.

    Lewandowski: Russia Colluders Should 'Go to Jail' for Life

    Anyone on Donald Trump's campaign team who colluded with Russia during the campaign should "go to jail for the rest of their lives," former campaign manager Corey Lewandowski told reporters Wednesday.

    "I think if anybody, and I've said this, if Paul Manafort, Roger Stone, or Rick Gates or Carter Page, or anybody else attempted to influence the outcome of the U.S. election through any means that's inappropriate — through collusion, coordination, or cooperation — I hope they go to jail for the rest of their lives,” Lewandowski said during an event at George Washington University, according to the Washington Examiner.

    "It's very simple. Our election process is too serious, our democracy is too important to allow people to try and try and have influence from the outside for their own gain."

    Manafort, who worked as Trump's campaign manager for a brief period, reportedly offered to provide private briefings on the presidential race to a Russian billionaire with close ties to the Kremlin, according to a story published Wednesday in The Washington Post.

    Let's go back to "Go" and explain to the simple Gunnery Sergeant something that seems to be zooming over his grape .... Collude with Russia to do WHAT? I keep drawing blanks with the answer to THAT question.

    What exactly could Russia do to affect our election to the point that it altered the results? Last I checked, Russian citizens aren't registered to vote as US citizens. And what exactly does anyone to include Trump stand to gain from some Russian conspiracy BS?

    If anyone stood anything to gain by collusion it would have been Hillary. Likewise, Russia would fare far better playing under the table with someone they know they can buy.

    So I don't get it.

    He's talking about Manafort. If you've been following him, its pretty incredible stuff. He's pretty much toast. They got him tied to Russia hard. Question is, what did Trump know and why did he hire him.

    Probably the same reason anyone hires anyone. You aren't a criminal until you get caught. That's kind of how the 4th Amendment works.

    I don't know a thing about Manafort and who cares if he has ties to Russia? Again, WHAT impact can Russia have on our elections?

    Let's say Trump openly hires someone from Russia, or associates with him/her .... who cares? Hell, I've associated with Russian soldiers. We rigged sh*t alright. A couple of bottles of vodka and bunch of US cigarettes worth. I guess I should feel bought?

    And...... this is why our country is going to hell. There is seriously a ton of stuff online. It will take you some time to go through it all, but I encourage you to instead of being ignorant. Manafort has been a big figure for the past 14 months. I also strongly urge you to rethink whether enemy operations within our government and election is a good thing or not. Your stance is actually flat out anti-american. Amazing, coming from a military man. Who knew a military man would sell out his country to the Russians.

    Our country is going to Hell because people put a ton of stuff online about shit that doesn't matter?

    I asked the common sense, simple questions and have no answers. STILL. I don't just believe the ton of stuff online because it's convenient to my agenda. Perhaps it is YOU who should seek to see through the blind, partisan ignorance? Again ..

    What does it benefit Trump to make some deal of unknown substance with a country that has no impact on our elections?

    What does it benefit Russia to make a deal with an unknown quantity showing signs of being an uncontrollable loose cannon when if they had anything to offer
    , Clinton is for sale to the highest bidder?

    How does Russia affect our elections that they can choose the outcome rather than the American people choosing it?

    Y'all been at this for almost a year now, and the usual leftwingnut witch hunt tactic has failed you miserably. You have NOTHING to show for it but a lot of wasted tax dollars.
