He couldn't even get the time of day while running, so it was of no use to him. Plus he hated Ted Cruz but would endorse him over Trump....and given that there are reports McCain somehow got a copy....

And then the other shoe, what do you do with it? This isn't a politician humping someone they shouldn't or spending money they shouldn't for the good life.

If true, this is trading favorable policy for shared profit.

I'm kind of curious on what the Kremlin is now going to come out and say about it. If they deny it and its proven, they look bad. If they do the no comment routine...well.... Then again, they may stay silent just to cause more chaos.
