I'm not hiding and I concur with fuagf. Life itself is not made up of unequivocal yes's and no's.
That's why there are the words like context, facts, evidence and explanation. Your discomfort with those is YOUR problem, not that of most who post here.
That said, did Trump say "Russia, if you're listening...."?

What about
"And in fact when I decided to just do it, I said to myself, I said 'you know, this Russia thing with Trump and Russia is a made-up story, it's an excuse by the Democrats for having lost an election that they should have won'."?
