I see… so you are admitting that they did not meet with a Russian official…

Well that pretty much wraps it up. No collusion with the Russian government.

But perhaps you want to say that there WAS collusion… except that the Russian government used a go-between (hence your poorly-worded “kremlin-linked”). Now, it’s not a crime to meet with lawyers. It’s not a crime to meet with Russian citizens. Even ones that are lawyers.

You are rapidly running out of even the remote possibility of Russian government tampering in this yarn…

So now we are forced to examine exactly what the Russian government did THROUGH their supposed go-between.

Please state clearly what the Russian government did through this accused go-between… and please state how you know it.

Because if you can’t… this desperate story of yours ends right here, and I’m revoking your fishing license.
