All this talk of Trump. Obstruction. Perjury. Etc. The real issue, and why we have Mueller . . . . .

. . . . . is about Russia fucking with our elections.

THAT is the biggest issue, Trump is a symptom of that, and quite likely not the cause of our current national state. To be sure, he is a problem all unto himself, but not of the same magnitude of the electronic invasion of an enemy power.

not have the House and SEnate, and then we wouldn't have Gorsich. I also wonder how long they've been messing in our elections; you can bet that at minimum, the social media aspect didn't just start in the lead up to 2016.

Russians have been using the US to launder money for decades, and Trump is at the heart of it.

Follow the money.
