I think that the majority of the American people have a difficult time understanding the concept of collusion and whether it is illegal or not. Never mind that, since stealing is a crime and hacking is the same as stealing, helping someone steal something and use it will land you in jail. Still, since “collusion” is such a 21st century “Sunday word” the White House may have made a political decision to admit to collusion or at worst bog everyone down with it, rather than having to face charges of conspiracies with criminals and big time money laundering. The reason being that probably the Trump supporters’ ears will definitely perk up for that more than for “collusion”. After all, money laundering is the über crime of the 20th and 21st. century and the poorly educated know lots about rich villains trying to hide their ill-gotten wealth.
Also the disclosure of the crime of money laundering by this administration would really upset Mr. Trump, as it affects his one and only love, namely money.
And if Junior gets convicted, His Papa can pardon him!
