Former Watergate prosecutor: 'Conspiracy,' not collusion, is main issue in Russia investigation

[Amica Nostra 4,803]

Nick Ackerman, a former Watergate prosecutor, said Saturday that the big issue in special counsel Robert Mueller investigation is not whether the Trump campaign coordinated with Russia, but whether it conspired to steal emails from prominent figures in the Democratic Party.

"I think the big enchilada here is the conspiracy to break into the Democratic National Committee in violation of the federal computer crime law and to use those emails to help Donald Trump get elected," Ackerman said on MSNBC.

"All of that is motive as to why Donald Trump and others were endeavoring to obstruct the investigation, and why Donald Trump told [former FBI Director] James Comey to let the investigation on [former national security adviser Michael] Flynn go," he added. "All of this is going to come together in 2018."

The only conspiracy here is a conspiracy theory.

Since there was no "collusion", they are now moving on to "conspiracy".  This hysteria is unprecedented and Hillary is still not the President.

I remember that it was Kelly Anne Conway promoting the "collusion dellusion" concept.  You don't know that there was no collusion, the point of the article is that conspiracy is the crime not collusion. This might even apply if the conspiracy failed. We just don't have those details.

So you are saying that the HRC campaign committed a crime by conspiring with a foreign agent?

you may not have, but a federal judge and grand jury obviously have seen something

Hillary and her people wrote those embarrassing emails, not Trump.

Emails and other docs are stolen every day and put online. These ended up on Wikipedia.

What's the conspiracy?

Better look at what Hillary did instead.... oh man, did we dodge a bullet!

Then you must have a "deep state" infection with the Grand Jury and Federal Judiciary to the search warrants and arraignments.  There are even a few guilty pleas.

And you know this how?  Also, do you know that it has anything to do with anything?
