What will be Trump's response once he sees the evidence?

Will he threaten to put someone in jail? After an investigation, of course.

Or will he look to divert the issue to another topic?

Will he ever say whether or not he believes the evidence?

things he wants to be true are true without evidence. He just has to say it.

Things he doesn't want to be true aren't and the evidence is rigged or falsified, another assertion for which he has no evidence.

Why is he acting as if he has not seen it?

Obama has vowed to release more information if Donald Trump is still blind to the facts.

"We have your phone calls to Russia, Donald".

...which will almost certainly lead to revelations of his campaign's complicity, and his own conflicts of interest regarding Russia.

He's always looking for a way to cover his ass...That's why he sends Pence to receive intelligence briefing..."Well, he never told me..."

He think he is clever. Doesn't know he is not.

Putin cannot believe his own luck. For Putin, Trump is easy.

I never asked Russia to hack into Hillary's emails at the end of that July press conference.

I never once gloated over Wikileaks hackings as stolen Clinton campaign emails were released on a daily basis.

No one in my campaign had the slightest interest in this shit.

All this is news to me.

We just need to "move on".
