Trump is not a traitor -- So why did he praise Putin so much?

The Mueller report was given to the Justice Department on Friday, and aside from those in trouble right now -- and going to jail there is little new "bad news" for Trump.   It turns out that there appears to be insufficient evidence of collusion between Trump and the Russians.  It doesn't mean that the Russians didn't try to influence the American vote towards Trump, just that Trump didn't seek this support he just got it...because as far as the Russians were concerned he was the better candidate (for them).

So why was Trump so pro Putin in virtually any environment?  That too came out during the Mueller investigation; commerce seems to be at the source of his support for Putin.  It seems that for personal reason Trump views his relationship with Putin as very important, Trump confused the interest of America with the interest of Trump.  Not entirely surprising from such a narcists, but this doesn't equate to TREASON!!!

Some were saying (like the Guardian's Greenwald) that there was no real evidence of collusion, rather meetings were attended and information was given to the Trump organization that was used to damage Clinton's campaign, but the FBI's late investigation probably did more harm than anything the Russians could have cooked-up and that was done by 100% domestic players (who may have had their own agenda too).

The largest impact is on Pelosi (the fact that she downplayed the impeachment "card" for the last few months) and some of the centrist candidates for the Democratic nomination.  All this hurts the press (actually both side talked complete BS during the entire investigation), with their crazy allegations.  It also killed off Biden's presidential ambitions (he's the candidate of the past).  The facts are not as bad for the press than some of the commentators would make believe -- there were some seriously bad people involved in Trump's campaign and they will/are paying a heavy price. 

But seriously, how could Trump be involved in anything like a conspiracy, he doesn't have the patience or the bandwidth to do such a thing.   Late into the election cycle Mueller has shown that Trump was working very hard on building his Trump tower project in Moscow -- it would have been a huge payday for him...that reasoning for being pro-Putin does make a lot of sense!

Ok so I lied...a little (revised)

When we began looking at farming in 2013/14 as something we both wanted to do as a "second career" we invested time and money to understand what sector of farming was profitable.  A few things emerged, First, high-quality, source-proven, organic farm products consistently have much higher profit margins.  Secondly, transformation accounted for nearly 80% of total profits, and production and distribution accounted for 20% of profits: Farmers and retailers have low profit margins and the middle bits make all the money. A profitable farm operation needs to be involved in the transformation of its produce.  The low-hanging fruits: cheese and butter.  Milk, generates a profit margin of 5% to 8%, depending on milk quality.  Transformed into cheese and butter, and the profit margin rises to 40% (Taking into account all costs).  Second:  20% of a steer carcass is ground beef quality.  The price is low, because (a) a high percentage of the carcass, and (b)...

Spray painting Taylor Swift G650 aircraft (updated)

 First, a bit of paint will not harm anyone.  These climate activities are going to learn two things in the next few days:  (1) Trespassing at an airport is a felony almost anywhere in the world.  That means criminal prosecution.   (2) removing paint from an aircraft is expensive.   So these climate activists are about to find out the reach of the British criminal system and it will not be pleasant, the UK has very strict laws about that, I would be surprised if cleaning the aircraft of all the paint will cost less than $100,000.     I am sure that when they planned (premeditation) this little show they had a very valid logic to doing this.  Tonight, they are probably realizing the depth of their troubles.   I understand that in the UK it's a minimum one-year jail sentence.    Also, good luck travelling with a criminal trespass charge against you.  I am relatively certain that the airline industry will ...

Janet Yellen from China supporter to Hawk...

There is rarely serious news in the world these days, it seems that most newspapers are filled with headlines and little else, and then Ms Yellen went to China.  Secretary Yellen has long been known in the Biden administration as the voice of moderation when dealing with China, yet as her trip which concluded yesterday a hawk was born:  She warned the Chinese against dumping goods in the United States.    fighting words! The American administration is very concerned about the lack of Chinese domestic consumption.   Even before the COVID-19 epidemic, there were already the beginning signs of a slowdown, automobile sales were off.   China is facing domestic deflation (a clear sign of collapsing demand) China imports few consumer goods, they import raw materials and intermediary goods.   It seems that the American administration is concerned that the Chinese administration will dump consumer goods abroad to keep its manufacturing machinery ...
