>>Answer: It's you that's been suckered. Trump is a pathological liar and you would rather believe him than everyone else (ya know like the CIA and FBI - what could those guys know)

Still not right. I make up my mind based on evidence or expert testimony from an impeccable source. "Take it from me" doesn't cut it from Trump, or from those same accusers who provoked a war when they "discovered" WMD in Iraq. My stance is, "where's the beef?"

Trump's problem is that "you can't produce evidence for something that didn't happen" which is why it's the responsibility of his accusers to produce evidence. It's also why, in the absence of evidence, Trump deserves the benefit of the doubt.

I won't answer the rest of your rant because the above really sums it up and the rest of your protestations are entirely yours, dude. Including the bad paraphrase of what Brennan actually said.

Something to consider: the intelligence community leaks like a sieve, damning Flynn, revealing Trump's discussions with other world leaders and meetings with ambassadors, revealing eating habits and all sorts of other stuff to belittle him- but no leaks confirming the criminality you insist is a fact. Leaks of such facts would be blockbusters, making reputations and carving names in stone forever. So why do you reckon that after at least 8 months of investigation, not a single such "fact" has been released to take him down?

Occam's Razor says it's because the evidence doesn't exist, with Clapper and Brennan agreeing with Occam so far.
