FBI Launched Investigation Two Years Ago — Still No Collusion Found

It has been two full years since the FBI formally launched its investigation into the Trump campaign on July 31, 2016, but it has yet to find any evidence of collusion with Russia.

The collusion theory was first floated in the media by Hillary Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook, on July 24, 2016, two days after hacked Democratic National Committee emails had been released on the eve of the DNC convention.

Collusion theorists often point to the number of indictments Special Counsel Robert Mueller has issued so far – against former campaign aides Paul Manafort, Rick Gates, Michael Flynn, George Papadopoulos, and Russians who ran disinformation campaigns or hacking operations.

However, none of the indictments have anything to do with collusion or conspiracy between the campaign and Russia.

No collusion. None. Not a whisper, not a scintilla, not a shadow. It's not even evident where someone might be paid great sums to fake it. So why continue? Sometime the little dog won't let go of the toy.

Not only is there no collusion, but "collusion" is not a crime.

I'm seeing the never Trumpers getting tossed out and the other Republicans starting to really back Trump.

Trump's policies are working and you can't argue against that and hope to win.

Patience. It may just take a few more years.

How much will this have cost us in the end, and how many man hours will have been spent by FBI agents and attorneys when they could have been doing real work?
Thanks, Mr. Comey, Ms. Lynch, Mr. Obama, for nothing.
