It is known, even Comey confirmed Trump was not “the subject” (that is the key phrase) of the investigation, nor was any individual person. It’s a technicality that makes their claim true.
When a bank robbery gets investigated, the “subject” of the investigation is the bank robbery.
Ah, I love the smell of money laundering in the morning!
True, bit Trump is still not “the subject” of any of them. Does not mean it won’t lead to him, but the WH can claim truthfully that Trump is not “the subject” of investigations at this time.
The White House is trying to claim that he won’t ever be the subject.
Didn’t Comey tell Trump three times that very thing?
Heh.
We do not know if Trump himself is or isn’t the ‘subject of the investigation’. That would be accurate. Of course he could be using Trump surrogates as his sources for “multiple people ‘have mad it clear’”. But that would be deliberately misleading, making the statement false.
ETA:

I don’t think Comey ever said that. Not completely sure though.
as in RICO?
If others were involved.
Personally, I’m good with DT being collateral damage with extreme prejudice.
As I would say to my coonhound “get him!” in reference to Ross
…with access to casino industrial size money washers/dryers…
Manafort, like Trump and Bannon and Flynn all look like Russian mobsters and guilty as sin.
Throw the bums in jail
RIPley’s Believe or Not
Are they going after Zales, too?
The comment I replied to said
“is” being the key word. I never replied to a comment that said he would not “become” one. That was my whole point, the statement I was referencing said he currently was not the subject, and that is accurate. Kind of like when Cheney said he was told Saddam had nukes. True statement, but his source was a proven liar, but technically Cheney was told Saddam had nukes.
This. “Follow the money” is just as true today as it was decades ago.
Actually, the last time I checked, Comey hadn’t confirmed anything. This was a Trump claim and Comey has, thus far, refused to comment.
Zales is a subsidiary of Trumpire?
The daughter with Marla.
The usual suspects?
Yup. And Zembla, a program from Dutch Public Broadcasting, shows just how it’s done in “The Dubious Friends of Donald Trump.”
If you happen to watch this excellent investigative documentary bear in mind that these are the same friends of Donnie Jr., Eric, Ivanka, Jared, Manafort, Page, Flynn, Ross, … ah hell, the list is nearly endless. And once the net comes down it’s going to take a fleet of buses to haul them all off.
Has anybody else watched this?
