....is just weird.

Not that it's so unbelievable in principle, but wouldn't trust this until until more sources support it.

There's something about her that feels scripted somehow. Also that she seems to be the only one to report a story or she's too far in front of it, like months before anyone else.

She just seems to be in it to make a name for herself, not to get to truth.

.......seems like she is doing it while trying to save every other GOP's ass at the same time.

The interesting thing about analyzing Mom For Trump is his use of most of the tropes pushed by Breitbart’s Steven Bannon, now a Trump advisor. These are:

Trump
Putin
Russia
Brexit
Nigel Farage

the extent of his complicity.

In addition to deep, corrupt financial ties to Russia and its oligarchs that compromise Trump...he is compromised and blackmailable by those who know about the collusion. That may mean Russians...may mean IC...may mean his collaborators...may mean foreign interests who eavesdropped...may mean the Afra and Cyprus banks...

Knowledge of collusion would be a valuable bargaining chip, as the consequences of being found out (impeachment, embarrassment, criminal prosecution, jail, hearings, depositions, impoundment of fortunes, etc) are severe.
