Campaigning while you're secretly trying to sign a huge real estate deal with a foreign nation who's approval you require, repeatedly lying about it to the American people, and heaping praise on said nation putting you in a compromised position is highly unusual. So is sharing campaign data with the same nation and people you owe millions of dollars to. So is discussing US policy and lying about it...and on and on...

There's plenty of treachery and betrayal to go around.
"It was a counter intelligence investigation to look for any crimes around Russian interference. "

I see! So it wasn't about Trump? No?

It is unusual. It's not indicative of a high ethical standard. But unfortunately, it ain't an impeachable offense. "Because I hate his guts", is not grounds for impeachment.

You really are avoiding commenting on the media's accuracy regarding all things Trump, aren't you?
