Investigators Close In On Trump As Senate Intel Committee Requests Campaign Communications

The Senate Intelligence Committee appears to be closing in on Donald Trump as they have requested all communications documents going back to the launch of his presidential campaign.

Robert Costa of The Washington Post reported, “The Senate Intelligence Committee, which is investigating Russian interference in the 2016 presidential race, has asked President Trump’s political organization to gather and produce all documents, emails and phone records going back to his campaign’s launch in June 2015, according to two people briefed on the request.”

Investigators aren’t just looking for evidence of potential Trump and Russia collusion during the general election. The Senate Intelligence Committee wants all communications going back to the launch of the campaign. This means that investigators are trying to figure out when the Trump/Russia relationship started, or it is was present at the campaign’s launch.

If evidence is found that Trump was in contact with Russia before he won the Republican nomination, that will make him as close to real life Manchurian Candidate as this country has ever seen. The Trump White House’s rush to launch a war room to deal with the investigations his potential collusion with Russia makes more sense now.

The Senate Intelligence Committee is digging deeper, and the odds are that what they find won’t be good news for Donald Trump.
