Sen. Whitehouse (D-RI) says he can 'imagine a scenario' where Sessions was Trump's Russian 'message boy'

Rhode Island Democrat Senator, Sheldon Whitehouse, has no evidence that there was any election-year collusion between Russia and the Trump campaign. None. We know this because, so far, such evidence has failed to materialize. That's not a debatable point. Still, a lack of facts has never been enough to stop a Democrat who wants to insinuate foul play. If you can't prove something happened, why not imagine it. Pretending that something untoward was happening is just as good as proving it, right?

From The Hill:

“You can imagine a set of circumstances in which the Trump campaign gave him talking points [and] he was a message boy for them,” Whitehouse told host Alisyn Camerota on CNN’s “New Day” Wednesday. “There was a content related to the relations between U.S.A. and Russia, favorable to Russia that would have encouraged them to support the Trump campaign. And then he returned back to the Trump campaign and said, ‘Done it, you know, mission accomplished here,' " he added. "And if that were the case it would be really, really hard to believe that he didn’t remember that. If it was just a casual courtesy meeting than forgetting it or not being truthful about it may be a little more understandable.”

Clearly, in Democrat-land, those are the words associated with an airtight case that deserves time on a national "news" broadcast. Here are a few other things we can "imagine" happening:

1. Donald Trump builds a secret moonbase where he stores a horde of high-end vintage wines in a desperate plan to decimate the global oenophile community.
2. Keith Olbermann regains his sanity, lands a real job.
3. Van Jones travels through time, teams up with Ronald Reagan, and together they alter the life-circumstances of a young Barack Obama, carefully grooming him to be a conservative Republican by the time he reaches college.
4. Michael Moore says "I was wrong. Capitalism is the planet's greatest engine for the elimination of poverty."

Clearly, these things will never come to pass. They're the stuff of sci-fi and deranged, fever-dream, fantasies. ...But it sure is fun to "imagine." Right, Senator Whitehouse?
