923. 18 U.S.C. § 371—Conspiracy to Defraud the United States

If you want to go this route, perhaps you...and everyone like you...should be more precise in your rhetoric and stop mentioning "collusion".
In any case, if this is what you want to hang your "get Trump" dreams on, I'm thinking you'll be having a hard time getting it done.
The operative language is the so-called "defraud clause," that prohibits conspiracies to defraud the United States. This clause creates a separate offense from the "offense clause" in Section 371. Both offenses require the traditional elements of Section 371 conspiracy, including an illegal agreement, criminal intent, and proof of an overt act.
Nothing I've seen comes near to satisfying these requirements.
