Of course Trump is innocent. But answer one question for me:

I will stipulate that there is massive evidence of the Trump campaign and Trump family members having long term relationships with Russian FSB agents and assorted politicians and oligarchs. And that there is evidence of money laundering and bribery under the guise of real estate purchases of Trump properties.

I will also say that any examination of Trump's business career shows a man who lies as much and as often as he breathes. His numerous strategic bankruptcies and thousands of suits against him for non-payment of bills due show that he has no ethics whatsoever.

To believe Trump, and his apologists, all of these Russian connections are all coincidental, and all of the appearances of collusion and conspiracy are also coincidences.

But one question must be asked of Trump voters, and Trump apologists:

If Trump is innocent, and if the Mueller investigation is a total fraud, why did George Papadopolous and Michael Flynn plead guilty to felonies?
