for me there are 3 issues.
Here is the jem Conspiracy Algo. (TM)
Is the leader responsibe?
1. Is the leader in this case either trump or obama legally culpable?
in other words are the facts which support laws which make the leader liable for crimes?
2. are there facts that make the leader morally culpable
3. regardless of 1 or 2 should the leader be responsible because leaders set the tone and should the buck should stop with the leader in these circumstances.
I believe we already have enough facts against Obama for #3. And, since I doubt Rice did what she did without premission...#2. But, like everyone else I doubt we will every get to #1 against Obama. He is too slick. I am sure he has all sorts of plausible denial. The media would run too much interference
But I am not aware of any facts that show Trump colluded with Russians on something illegal or immoral. If some facts come to light then we will run them through the conspiracy algo.
