The Russia scandal has entered a new phase, and there’s no going back.And probably more damning for Krauthammer is that the Right has been defending Trump based on what now are lies that Trump and his people have been peddling for months: No contact. No collusion. Nothing to see here. All were lies.
For six months, the White House claimed that this scandal was nothing more than innuendo about Trump campaign collusion with Russia in meddling in the 2016 election. Innuendo for which no concrete evidence had been produced.
...
It turned out to be incompetent collusion, amateur collusion, comically failed collusion. That does not erase the fact that three top Trump campaign officials were ready to play.
It may turn out that they did later collaborate more fruitfully. We don’t know. But even if nothing else is found, the evidence is damning.
The Trump lines is about as good as someone trying to complain that the bag of weed that they bought turned out to be oregano.

I guess they must have just figured that he wouldn't lie to THEM...
Bad call. Someone who lies that much just lies. To whom never enters into it.

"the bag of weed that they bought turned out to be oregano."
Actually, it's more like the bag of weed they mugged somebody for turned out to be oregano.

It makes me wonder if they ALL are smoking something that is definitely NOT oregano?
I don't think they object to the lies and corruption; they object to the outing of the lies and corruption.
