Happened in 08, all a matter of public record, handled through brokers, listed by Trump as a Russian "contact".
I don't think this one will be the smoking gun.

Has there been a smoking gun yet? How long is this investigation going to continue? Its been close to or over a year now and no hard evidence has been found. Is this whole investigation with Mueller the Democrats version of Ken Starr like the Republicans had back in the '90's? At least Ken found something.

Watergate timeline as a comparison:

June 17, 1972

Five men are arrested while trying to bug the Democratic National Committee’s headquarters at the Watergate, a hotel and office building in Washington, D.C. A day later, White House press secretary Ronald Ziegler famously called the Watergate break-in a “third-rate burglary.” At a press conference June 22, President Nixon denied that the White House was involved in the incident.

...

Aug. 8, 1974

Nixon resigns.

I'm just curious if you use the same rational about Hillary and her corruption that anyone has yet to find despite years of investigations?

Trump is a proven pathological liar no matter how the WH tries to spin it as hyperbole. This is the same stuff the GOP already knew when they desperately tried to keep him off the ticket in the first place and now its exploding in their faces.

Not at all weird that a Russian oligarch would pay tens of millions over the appraised value for a property that he never even bothered to have inspected, performed any due diligence on, never lived in, and has since demolished.

I have no idea if this is anything corrupt but it sure stinks at least on the surface. Smart to investigate this along with the other more blatant corruption.

Have you noticed the trend of excessive goodwill in all of Trump's dealings with foreign buyers?

Hey, don't interfere with their fantasies. I come in every morning for my laugh of the day. These guys couldn't think for themselves if their lives depended on it. Every day a new story, every day they're believed 100 percent. They've far exceeded any definition of useful idiot that could ever be expressed.

This is an ironic statement, right? I mean, you're clearly terrified of visiting any news outlet that isn't a conservative echo chamber lest it criticize (read: tell the truth about) Dear Leader Trump, and the Russians brag openly on national TV about Trump being their useful idiot.

This isn't to say that there aren't people in the left in echo chambers, but holy crap... look in a mirror before you fling accusations. You're the textbook definition of a Trump drone.

Since Banghazi went on for 2 years you may want to save this question for 2019

Meh. Wyden is playing headline wars with Trump. I seriously doubt that the deal can be shown to be anything other than legit. It just brings it all back around to discussion of Russian meddling rather than Deep State conspiracy bullshit towards the Donald.

Yet everyone in charge of this investigation is Republican. I think your brain is broken.
