“Has he spoken to any other World Leaders since leaving office?”
“Of course not, it’s not his job”
“Do you see the concern people would have with him speaking to Putin and only Putin?”
“Yes, but I’m going to pretend I don’t”

Bold faced liar. JD knows that Trump’s behavior is illegal under the Logan Act. Surprisingly, even Trump knows the Logan Act, as evidenced by his threat to use it against John Kerry in 2019.

Diplomacy is for when sitting heads of state communicate with each other for mutual goals.
Sedition is when a person not a head of state contacts a head of state in hopes of rigging elections to you and what favors are going to be given afterwards.

It seems to be illegal unless it’s a Republican candidate doing the negotiations.
LBJ found out Nixon’s campaign was negotiating with Vietnam to continue the war until after the elections so they could get a better deal.
Reagan’s campaign contacted Iran to hold onto the hostages until after the elections promising better terms. Does Iran/Contra ring a bell.
Trump is constantly meddling in negotiations, both domestic and international. Asking Putin to interfere with elections. Asking Netanyahu to not do a cease fire in Gaza. Telling congress to not pass laws or budgets to make Democrats look bad.

CNN had some crappy Republicans on defending Trump talking to Putin …”he was doing it for the good of America”.
CNN has become a gross network feeding off this monster’s orange teet.

When your VP candidate pretends to not understand the law in an attempt to appease stupid people.

I was raised with the ideal that when someone betrays your country by selling secrets and goods to a known terrorist entity… You hang them until dead. I am autistic so maybe I’m fuzzy on the rules. Did we not see the Cheeto incite people on January 6th along with his cohort of bulk purchased scum? Hasn’t he flat out refused the will of the people and attempted a takeover? Isn’t he trying to buy the presidency through political connections and threats? Even the MAGA crowd should be able to see that he doesn’t stand behind anything he says once pressured and he is a coward by nature. I honestly wonder if we’re about to see him installed against the will of the people under false pretenses. Will anybody do anything then or will we just groan as he strip mines this country in the name of foreign wealth. What an America we have become.

The Logan Act (1 Stat. 613, 18 U.S.C. § 953, enacted January 30, 1799) is a United States federal law that criminalizes the negotiation of a dispute between the United States and a foreign government by an unauthorized American citizen.
