Busted: CIA Refutes Demo/MSM Collusion About Collusion

As we have repeatedly noted, there is still no evidence of Trump colluding with Putin.

According to Daniel Hoffman, former CIA Station Chief in Moscow from 2012-2017, there is no evidence of collusion between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin — as we have asserted repeatedly.

Hoffman told NPR, “Overall I haven’t seen any evidence of anyone actually colluding with the Russians — of Russian intelligence colluding with a campaign to cause harm to another.”

In his New York Times op-ed, “It Wasn’t About Collusion,” Hoffman says Putin deliberately left a trail of breadcrumbs from Trump Tower to the Kremlin.

On the meeting with Trump Jr., Hoffman says, “It pointed to a discoverable influence operation rather than some effort to establish a clandestine channel for collusion.”

Hoffman told CNN, “I think the evidence from that meeting points to an effort by the Kremlin to influence rather than some sort of a covert back channel for collusion. Vladimir Putin wants to soil our democratic institutions, and I think he found the best way to do that would be to tie us to the Kremlin.”

In other words, as we have also repeatedly argued, the whole “Trump/Putin collusion” charade has been propagated by the Demo/MSM propaganda machine to undermine the legitimacy of Trump’s election.
