It's a nothing burger As Far As Trump "Collusion"- which happens to be the alleged thrust of the investigation and has shown nothing- as in "nothing burger".
If Obummer really thought something was being done by Russia, where was his action after a "stern warning"? Even then there was no evidence of any "collusion". It's crap.

Still believe this to be true? At what point does it become a something burger? Only when Trump himself admits it to be?

Maybe it's when a sitting U.S. President can't decide if he trusts our intelligence agencies or the President of Russia.

I'm certainly not sure whether Trump had any knowledge of his campaign staff working with Russians. Maybe yes, maybe no.
I'm certainly not sure if there is a pee tape...probably not.

What seems very plausible is that Trump's business career became beholding to Russian investment (as his sons alluded to a couple times), and that could be an explanation of much of his antics.

Which makes a good case to have all presidential nominees release their tax returns. If the Republicans had required that of all nominees when there were a dozen candidates, we might not be where we are today.

All while back at the home front, my wife and I have enjoyed the fruits of the corporate tax plan. We've also appreciate two Judges, who would seem to side with the general public & not rule in favor of building non-binary bathrooms for a-sexual giraffes.

Last but not least, the union base of the Trump vote is as strong as ever, & watching the Madows, Harwoods, Cuomo's head explode because they fail to realize there are people outside of Manhattan & the Beltway, is entertaining.

How have you benefited? Serious question, numbers aren’t showing huge corporate investment in people. My own experience confirms that. Now, people believing his lies? I can’t do anything about that.

Maybe Pete got well with people buying his stock back.

My extremely intelligent father, aeronautical engineer and well versed in economics, believed that Corporations would reinvest back into itself with their newfound tax break. What I could not figure out was that he knew what happened last time Bush allowed the repatriation of foreign held funds. He knew a lion share when to the purchase of treasury stock but insisted this one would be different. I just laughed at him.

If wages aren't going to rise when the economy is doing well and after huge tax breaks for corporations, then when is it going to happen?

Who can forget all the foreign relations damage repair Sec of State Hillary had to do when she forced her way into office.
