So, is it just me, or does this Trump-Russia thing look like it might be going… nowhere? So, all reports from the Flynn story are saying that Trump directed Flynn to talk with Russian officials during the transition. That’s might different than during the election—and during the election is probably worse than during the transition. Sure, you can cite the Logan Act, but barely anybody’s been prosecuted for that, and it would only fuel the GOP’s talking point of a witch hunt. It seems that Trump Jr. was very eager to collude during the campaign—but there’s no evidence of it going to the top, which is good for Trump.

I’m just not seeing a clear link between Russia and Trump that’s serious enough to warrant a crime. I think the obstruction of justice possibilities are more founded than the collusion stuff, but the House wouldn’t impeach based on that alone.

I don’t know. I really just don’t know here.
