Not even close to the same thing, but nice try.

Because telling the Russian President that he would have more flexibility after his election, is absolutely no means for controversy? If Trump did that, the entire media establishment would demand that he would be imprisoned for "collusion" and "treason".

First off, the fact that he's talking about Russia on a video published in July of 2016 completely obliterates your original argument that Russia was a boogeyman cooked up only after the election, which was exactly my point.

Secondly, in addition to what he said in that video, he tweeted this:
"If Russia or any other country or person has Hillary Clinton's 33,000 illegally deleted emails, perhaps they should share them with the FBI!"

Which is pretty hard to misconstrue.

Russia existed since 1991. Russia was always spying on us. There is absolutely NOTHING about Russia colluding with Trump, or interfering with the election, until after the results came in. Russia always spied on us, and are expected to do things like this. This has nothing to do with Trump, but rather what happened with Hillary Clinton's 30,000 classified emails from a private unsecured server (which is a Federal rime).

When lawmakers create Voter ID laws, they get to choose what constitutes a valid piece of ID. When it's Republicans doing the picking, they typically pick things like gun permits (as gun owners are more likely to be Republican voters) or even something like a driver's license. That might not seem controversial, but the simple fact of the matter is that minorities - especially those in urban areas who vote strongly Democratic - are much less likely to own a driver's license than rural, white voters.

And, once again, you are ignorant, and are making blatantly racist insinuations and assumptions. There are numerous forms of IDs, such as driver's license, state ID, work ID, passports, birth certificates, all of which would be considered valid, and at least one of which would be used on a near daily basis, in every day situations involving transactions.
