and the point of having it the news is what? Americans don’t care about Russia, wikileaks, or even Hillary anymore.. the point is to cause uncertainty in the markets and cause an economic downturn they can blame on Trump... that is their endgame. If this story goes away, and the economy booms... November will be a disaster for them.

There are two points of keeping the Russian narritive in the news. One is to keep the Democrat base energized and engaged. I have a few die hard Democrats in my family and they really believe the Russians got Trump elected. They believe the Steele dossier is true. They really believe every Trump voter is neo-Nazi white supremeist (yes, they have accused me of this). They are pumped up to go out and vote for every Democrat on the ballot in November to stick it Trump and his voters.

The second reason is the Russian narritive has been somewhat effective in swaying the non political and low info voters against Trump. I firmly beleive the Russia narritive is what is keeping Trump for getting approval ratings above 40%
