According to a New York Times report that we can all collectively pretend to be shocked and appalled by, President Obstinately Orange and Obtuse just might have a thing for Russia. And by a thing, I mean that during his 2016 presidential campaign and transition, at least 17 of his campaign officials and advisers had contacts—over a 100 of them— with either Russian nationals, WikiLeaks or their intermediaries.


Ummm... that’s a lot.

An additional 10 other associates were informed about interactions, but did not engage in any themselves.


Per the New York Times, t his knowledge is based on their own reporting, “ documents submitted to Congress, and court records and accusations related to the special counsel investigating foreign interference in the election” .

As to how this all breaks down, here are the numbers:

Melania’s Baby Daddy, currently holding the government hostage

Michael D. Cohen, former fixer - 17 contacts

Donald Trump Jr., inheritor of defective genes - 17 contacts



George Papadopoulos, currently on a 12-month supervised release for making false statements to the FBI - 12 contacts



Paul Manafort, convicted felon - 6 contacts



Michael Flynn, plead guilty to “willfully and knowingly” making “false, fictitious and fraudulent statements” to the FBI - 5 contacts

Jared Kushner, soon-to-be convicted felon-in-law - 6 contacts

Roger Stone, was just arrested on Friday

Yeeeeeeah, somebody is definitely going to jail.

I strongly recommend that you read the full published report, which you can find here.
