If Buck is so certain there is nothing there, is he worried about the US Intelligence community's judgment? How will he work to improve their ability to come to better conclusions?
Nothing to see folks. TwoScoops is off the hook according to the prosecutor in BuckWorld, . . .
. . . apparently Vladimir Putin experienced buyer's remorse???
First of all, Buck does not "go to town hall meetings". He went to one invitation-only meeting with a small group of Indivisible Colorado constituents in the Springs in February. They talked about health care. He met with a small group in Firestone in March.
Then he actually showed up at a "with or without you" town hall in Longmont on April 15, 2017.
Secondly, Russia has not specifically come up at these live town halls. It may come up on the telephone town halls. Health care and repealing the ACA were on the agendas. He talked a little bit about domestic terrorism at the Longmont town hall. The only time he came close to talking about collusion and Russia was at about 28:00 minutes in to this video, when asked by Bob Seay at what point Congress would step in to stand up to Trump. Buck responded, "If I believe that he (Trump) has committed a high crime or misdemeanor, then I will act."
My own notes from Buck's February 2017 telephone town hall show no questions were asked about Russian collusion. He famously refused to answer a constituent's question about what he would do about white supremacy and domestic terrorism.
Perhaps Buck is referencing the softball questions Erika Haas from Townhall.com threw to him on his book promotion tour. Not a thing about Russia here. Buck mostly talked about his book, and the "Freedom Caucus" dream of having a convention of states to rewrite the Constitution. Also shrinking the Federal government, having a balanced budget, eliminating Federal funding for education, and that there is no need for spending a trillion dollars on infrastructure.
So when Buck says that people “keep bringing up Russia” at these town halls, he is flat out lying. He does very few town halls, and Russia hasn’t been discussed at all.
The comparison of "Russia Gate" with the hysteria over Obama's birth certificate is silly and misplaced. Bill O'Reilly debunked the whole "birther" controversy on his Fox News show back in 2009. But no one with any credibility has debunked the Russia issue. If Buck thinks there is no substance, prove it.
