What is the difference between Trump saying he'd accept foreign information

So you are saying foreign collusion is ok as long as you run it through an American company to do so?

Nope, illiterate stupid fuck. Try to master English.

“Steele, who had been a Russia expert for Britain's MI6, was hired by Fusion as a private contractor, and at the time was not a "foreign agent." His payment was a campaign expenditure, not a campaign contribution, and was therefore legal.”

“Experts we spoke to described a range of differences between the type of information Trump said he would accept and what Clinton’s campaign was paying Fusion GPS for.
The main difference is the role of a foreign government.
"Working hand-in-hand with a foreign power for information intended to influence an election is different than hiring a private firm that then hired somebody who had been a former intelligence agent," said Karen Greenberg, director of the Center on National Security at Fordham Law.
"Everybody does opposition research," she added. "The issue here is the foreign government."
“While Russia’s meddling was intended to help Trump win, Steele was contracted by Fusion GPS to find out more about Trump’s ties to Russia. "That has nothing to do with a candidate soliciting something from a foreign power," former CIA intelligence agent Glenn Carle said.
"One is collecting intelligence and the other is an active measure by a foreign power to achieve a political end of some sort," Carle said. "There’s no comparison at all."”

"While it is illegal to accept contributions from foreign nationals for political campaigns (as Trump suggested he would do), “paying a foreign national fair market value for opposition research is generally not illegal,” as former chief counsel for the Federal Election Commission Lawrence Noble told The Washington Post. “It is considered a commercial transaction, which is not a contribution.”

FEC Chair

Let me make something 100% clear to the American public and anyone running for public office: It is illegal for any person to solicit, accept, or receive anything of value from a foreign national in connection with a US election," she said in a statement.
 
what is the difference between accepting information, and paying for information?

hint - only one is commercial in nature

No, he said indicting Trump was never an option because we can't indict a sitting president.
And while there is no smoking gun, it's more than obvious that Trump colluded with Russia. Is it really not enough that he recently admitted he would if a foreign government offered?

I didn’t say it was a financial contribution, illiterate fuck. Receiving info like Junior did was receiving “something of value”.

Look up the definition of “contribution” in the federal code, dumbfuck. Then get back to me.

Try to brush up on your comprehension skills, stupid fuck.

Moron :rofl2:

Still lying? Mueller stated precisely what i stated.

And for the 1900000th time. The DoJ ruling does not prevent mueller reaching a conclusion on obstruction as he clearly reached a conclusion on conspiracy and coordination.

Neither did Trump. If you had a brain, you could comprehend the OBVIOUS.

Mueller Report; Page 173 V I: Ultimately, the investigation did not establish that the Campaign coordinated or conspired with the Russian government in its election-interference activities.
