The collusion scorecard: What we know so far about Trump-Russia contacts
WASHINGTON — U.S. President Donald Trump has tweeted no fewer than 17 times that his campaign did not collude with Russians, usually making that point with an exclamation mark for emphasis, and often in all caps: “NO COLLUSION!”
The evidence is less categorical.
There are at least a half-dozen examples to date of people involved in the Trump campaign who either sought dirt gathered by Russian intelligence on Hillary Clinton, or who had other ties to Russians.
The latest came last week in a court filing that stated Trump’s deputy campaign manager knew he was communicating during the campaign with a former officer of Russia’s military intelligence service.
