Show collusion between Trump, or people associated with his campaign, and the Russians, or shut the heck up.
The "Russian Investigation" is a sham. The nightly news reporting of said investigation is a sham.
We, Republicans generally, and Trump, specifically, have allowed the Democrats and the media (but I repeat myself) to conflate two issues. One: Russians attempted to, or were successful in, influencing the election. Two: Said influence involved active collusion among Trump, his surrogates, and Vladimir Putin.
The intelligence community has presented all parties (Democrats and Republicans alike) with intelligence that Russia worked to influence the 2016 election. What that intelligence included, specifically, is anybody's guess, as much of it has been kept within the investigatory bodies. No one is surprised that Russia has geopolitical interests in influencing the direction of its most prominent adversary, the United States.
Where the narrative goes off the rails, and has traveled much (much) farther than should have been allowed, is that Donald Trump or his surrogates were actively working with Putin, or Russia, to elevate Trump to the presidency as a form of quid pro quo. Set aside for a moment that, in an infamous "hot mic" moment, Barack Obama told Russian president Dmitri Medvedev that "after my election, I'll have more flexibility," and also set aside that, as secretary of state, Hillary Clinton signed off on a uranium deal with Russia, as money was being donated to the Clinton Foundation.
As the Russians gradually assumed control of Uranium One in three separate transactions from 2009 to 2013, Canadian records show, a flow of cash made its way to the Clinton Foundation.
The media were seemingly incurious about our "involvement with Russia"

They will right after their fishing expedition.
They are looking kinda stupid lately, and I don’t use that word lightly. Especially NPR.
Who stood by and harrumphed while Russia marched into Ukraine and Crimea? Who withdrew US missiles from eastern Europe? Who handed over US uranium?
Its not hard to find collusion between the US and Russia.
THIS is the response EVERY Republican should deploy whenever this topic comes up.
Throw it right back in the faces of DemonicRATS and their Fake News Media hacks.
All of the so called “democrats” should recuse themselves from these farcical hearings since their “party” has only one objective. A successful coup against the President of the United States. These so called “democrats” cannot be trusted. They’re just pissed off that the American people refused to let them run the country.
Speaking of which, where does/did Hitlery stand on the Keystone XL Pipeline?
I’m still waiting for someone, anyone to tell me EXACTLY in detail what the Russians did to influence the election. If you can’t do that then shut the f**k up. No more innuendoes. Facts or move on. Releasing embarrassing DNC emails is not throwing an election.
RE: Speaking of which, where does/did Hitlery stand on the Keystone XL Pipeline?
Her own State Department ( when she was head ) did a study on it and found it environmentally SAFE.
Hillary, ever the politician, was silent on it before going against it. SEE HERE:
All they really needed was to donate to the Clinton Foundation and she’d be for it once again.
Still and all, going into the election, who would Putin have rather have seen making the decision as to whether or not build it knowing that the construction of it?
According to Comey, Comey’s “evidence” that Russia sought to help Trump was based upon the idea Putin hated Clinton, so therefore he must support Trump. That is not evidence. That is a GUESS. I guess it never occurred to Comey that there were 2 other candidates ( Stein and Sanders ) that Russia may have preferred - after all, this was all during the primary. Or it never occurred to Comey that maybe Russia wanted Hillary in, but as a damaged candidate - under investigation - so that it would make her a weakened president. But I guess Comey and the "intelligence community" never considered these scenarios and only considered the simplistic - He hated Hillary ( only based on info released about Hillary that has never been traced to Russian involvement ) thus he must have been supporting Trump
Ferget it. It was a rhetorical question anyway. Obviously, Putin would much rather have seen Queen Cankles in office than Donald Trump.
Anybody remember Miss Cleo?
Anybody?
Anybody?
Bueller?
Hmmm, I think you may be onto something. This “collusion” investigation started around mid-July. Miss Cleo died at the end of July. His “source” disappeared . :-)
Hey, let them continue to fish their dry hole and drink more of whatever it is they are drinking. It doesn’t really hurt anything, there is no danger of them catching anything real. Now the made up, imaginary stuff could turn out to be a problem, but they will come up with that stuff in an case.
The Russia thing is so pathetic. For the GOP to be carrying the water for it is embarrassing. How Obama and Clinton get away with this garbage is disgusting.
