No it not. Regardless of how it started if looks very much like it was the Trump camp that broke the law.

I honestly think Trump is already sick of being president. He ran in no small part out of sheer ego. Now he's actually in the job he realises just how much work it is. In spite of all the jokes, he's not a God Emperor. His power is limited. He's having to fight to get anything done. He's under relentless media attack, and for someone as thin-skinned as him, that's no fun at all.

Nobody knows, but that won't stop wishful thinking.

Campaign finance law, which prohibits soliciting or accepting anything from foreign citizens.

You don't know. Many people do as multiple stories have been written about it.

You know how this goes. He'll say "He accepted a foreign campaign contribution".
Then 1 of two things will happen. You'll either say "That's not illegal. Look at this rule that says its fine", to which he'll ignore you and insist, based on no example, that it is illegal.
Or you'll say "Look at these other examples of peopled doing the same thing", to which he'll reply "but Clinton!".

Anything? That seems rather broad. Trump visited Mexico on the campaign. Do you think him accepting a glass of water while meeting with the President of Mexico would be illegal?

Sorry, anything of value.
Yes, because neither of those refute the facts.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said Friday that she thinks President Trump and his family members may have violated campaign finance law, and potentially laws prohibiting cybercrime and espionage as well, through their meetings with Russian operatives during the 2016 presidential campaign.

Would it have been illegal for Trump Jr. to go to Mexico and purchase a taco bowl from a Mexican at a taco stand?

Well, she is right. So why would I not want to say the same thing?

"May have" + "Trump Jr" =/= Pres. Trump collusion. More ingredients are needed.

No, because that taco bowl has no value to the campaign. I see you are back to playing the idiot.

No Donald Jr. and others did break the law. If that leads to Trump is yet to be seen.

Didn't you know that war room conservatives don't like it when you quote or repeat facts? They're only comfortable with alternative facts and retard talking points from Breitbart and Alex Jones.

No she's not. Pelosi is a stooge who job is to work up the left wing base with non-sense like you? If he violated the law, she should be the first one walking into Congress and demand that Trump and his team be brought up on charges, you know why that won't happen? There's nothing.

Taco bowls have value. They cost money right?
Lets say Trump called a campaign meeting at Trump tower. Jr goes out to the street and buys taco bowls for everyone in the meeting off a taco-vendor who is a Mexican citizen. Did he violate campaign finance law? I'm not playing an idiot here. It seems the law can't be interpreted as broadly as you are interpreting, or it would catch instances of buying taco bowls.
