good time to say so? you could call for that, right? it is all going to come out eventually. somebody should call on them to spill. particularly if you're of the mindset that there's nothing nefarious about these contacts between the trump campaign and russia. if you're going to make the case that it's totally normal for presidential campaigns that are being assisted by a foreign intelligence operation to have several dozen contacts with a little bit and operatives and officials from that country while the operation is under way, yeah, that's totally normal. if you want to claim that there's nothing weird about all these contacts, especially if you want to claim that there's nothing weird about it, then why do you keep hiding them? fess up. say what they are. eventually they'll turn up, in julia ioff's reporting or on "nbc nightly news." if you think these contacts are benign, why have you been hiding them for more than a year? that's the first thing that's important about this new scoop in "the atlantic" tonight.
