You claim this is a "nothingburger" and you may very well be right...so my advice is simple:
STOP LYING about things related to Russia.
This may be nothing but judging from the constant lying we can only assume you have something to hide.

I think they're in complete touch with the base.
It's just not "the base" most people think it is.

Or getting the wall built. Or that he will balance the budget. Or cut taxes for the middle class. Or... he is a serial liar.

I agree with you. I don’t believe for a minute that the real Republican base is more interested in deficit reduction than it is in cutting their taxes. If you ask a white, blue-collar person in Steubenville, Ohio or Dearborn, Mich. (the kind of voters that elected DT president), if they’d rather cut the deficit or receive a $1,500 tax break, I’m pretty sure I know what their answer will be.

as you are well aware. Obama (surrogates and administration) booby trapped the entire DOJ for trump heading into his first 100 days.
The obama regime and democrats have strong armed trump into an anti-Russia position. We had a reset 8 years ago. and because Putin didn't play nice with Obama, it was determined that trump would have no opportunity at all to even negotiate with Putin. which, frankly, is borderline evil. why wouldn't trump not get his own chance to negotiate?
keep in mind that Putin nationalized his central banks in 2016. something we never talk about anymore. because the banks that own DC politicians dont want you to know that (we americans) can take back our money whenever we want. Its our frickin money!! we, the people, own it. our taxes pay for everything. and our government is suppose to work for us. but through the use of media, we are wasting time with "collusion" so trump cant get anything done. trump is trying to change things and this whole thing is nothing more than a huge smoke screen to prevent trump from negotiating firmly with both his own party and democrats.
Now trump has certainly made it easy for dems and for lindsey, Rand and Mccain to show boat to sully and soil up his administration becausse trump clearly didn't understand how DC works. He thought he knew. He clearly didn't.
and this is why it will be so hard for a true maverick, and true renegade, that truly wants to implement change for the good. for the betterment of the american people. trying to do the right thing for Americans. they will always be obfuscated and obstructed by the DC elites.
the two parties are both complicit. the media is complicit. the establishment is complicit. they will continue to run the country into the ground so that international global bankers can continue to remove wealth from the american people and line their own pockets.
heroin use is rampant again. Cocaine use is rampant again. i was at a party on friday over 100 people doing cocaine in broad daylight. I was in shock. not even using the bathrooms like they did in the 80's. I asked a guy, and he said they do this every weekend. "the whole building does it." I also have a younger girl friend, a northwestern grad. she has a bunch of trust fund friends. They all say that at least 90% of the people at all the music fests are on molly, coke, mixed with booze for sure, and often weed. every single weekend. every single DJ show. every where. everyone. you combine this with prescription drugs and booze at home, and I would estimate that 80% of the entire country that is over 16 years old is using drugs regularly.
IMO, The country has been running into the toilet on the obama watch and we are worrying about things like "did trump collude with russians to hack the election." like it even matters. hillary clearly paid for russian sourced opposition research. however indirect. and the russians provided her campaign with lies which her campaign released to buzzfeed and no one cares about that. and frankly, they shouldn't. it doesn't matter. If a candidate is "bad" and russian operators can demonstrate that the candidate is bad? and its true? who cares? No american should care who helped who expose it. like the DNC emails. these aren't national secrets. these are party ongoing related to elections and policy that a candidate may or may not campaign on. And if the party is acting nefarious in their email chains i think the american people should know prior to election. no matter the party. what matters is the truth comes out. that the american people get the truth.
the "investigation" however is just a smoke screen to make trump another sit on his hands president.

Yeah, you and I just have a fundamental difference of opinion about this subject.
I have a huge problem with any candidate (or representatives) meeting with Russian intelligence to influence an election.
As a former Marine I'm shocked you're so nonchalant about this.
For some reason I suspect if this was HRC you'd be having a fit right now.

Cambridge Analytica, provided the social media targeting data to the Russians. Mueller needs the proof otherwise someone has deniability. It's also possible that one of the parties will flip on the others.
