Trump's opponents keep shifting their position on Ukraine's 2016 interference

It would be really helpful for Democrats and liberals in the national media to get their story straight in the debate over whether Ukraine interfered in the 2016 election. Right now, they have four different and contradictory stories, and that makes it all but impossible to, you know, have an actual debate.

Their initial position was to deny that any meddling by Ukraine took place at all. The problem with that is the New York Times broke the story in 2016 that an entire Ukrainian government agency was investigating Paul Manafort, who at the time was serving as Trump's campaign chairman.

Back then, the paper reported that Ukraine’s "newly formed National Anti-Corruption Bureau," which worked in conjunction with America's FBI, was in possession of a mysterious, handwritten diary that showed Manafort was receiving millions of dollars in payments from one of the country's pro-Russian politicians. "Investigators assert," the Times reported, "that the disbursements were part of an illegal off-the-books system whose recipients also included election officials."

  2. You guys continue to throw out smoke screens. The whole Ukraine interference piece is only a story because you choose to allow for the continued lies and misinformation from a president who is fighting for his political life. The GOP's own investigations have shown no interference, along with a bevy of other analysis from FBI and others, yet suddenly the topic pops up. Wake up people.

    As for Manafort, he was a well known bad guy before he ever showed up on the Trump campaign. That should show you how much of a buffoon Trump is for even getting entangled with him. Before its all said and done, you will find out that Trump's buffoonery has put our national security at risk in several regions.

  3. Shut up commie. Obama put our country at more rick trying to be cronies with the likes of iran, cuba, Venezuela and don't forget the hot mic with Putin stating I can do .ore for you after I am reelected. Then there is bengazi where we could have saves men, but the corrupt administration gave stand down orders and blamed the whole thing on a book. Trump has done more for the American people than any president in my lifetime. If the commicrats had even 1 thing on trump, trust me they would have already unveiled it, but they do not, thus we have pointless investigations with kangaroo courts. So just shut up comrad
