The Only 2016 Campaign That Deliberately Colluded With Russians Was Hillary Clinton’s
There was Russian collusion during the 2016 presidential campaign, but it didn't come from Donald Trump.



The Only 2016 Campaign That Colluded With Russia Was Hillary Clinton's
March 28, 2019 ~ By Sean Davis
For more than two years, the campaign, presidential transition, and official government administration of Donald Trump operated under a cloud of suspicion that they had engaged in a treasonous conspiracy to steal the 2016 election from former secretary of state Hillary Clinton. Trump and his top associates were accused of collusion and of conspiring with the Russians to subvert American democracy.... The former director of the Central Intelligence Agency publicly declared Trump to be guilty of treason, an offense punishable by death.(18 U.S. Code SS 2381 - Treason | U.S. Code | US Law | LII / Legal Information Institute) The former head of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the country’s premier law enforcement agency, intimated that the president had illegally obstructed justice.
In the end, none of it was true. After a nearly two-year-long investigation that issued 2,800 subpoenas, interviewed 500 witnesses, and used nearly 300 wiretaps and pen registers, Special Counsel Robert Mueller concluded that there was no evidence of collusion by Trump or his associates.... But that doesn’t mean 2016 was free of Russian collusion. To the contrary, there is clear evidence that a 2016 presidential campaign willfully and deliberately colluded with Russians in a bid to interfere with American elections. It wasn’t Trump’s campaign that colluded with shady Russia oligarchs and sketchy Russian sources to subvert American democracy: it was Hillary Clinton’s. As the Mueller investigation reportedly concluded, though, there was no illegal conspiracy within the Trump campaign to collude with the Russians to subvert our democracy. There was collusion, alright, but it was committed by the presidential campaign of Hillary Clinton.

The article is from March 28, 2019 but it is very relevant today and the point needs to be repeated continually. The Trump campaign DID NOT collude with Russia.
The Clinton campaign and the DNC DID collude with Russia. like Vladimir Lenin said, you look for the person who would benefit.
Everything written above by Sean Davis is factually correct and true. The only question is whether this information will be ghettoized to the Federalist and other "right-wing" media or whether any journalists at CNN, MSNBC, the networks or print media will attempt to cover any of this. My sources say no.
Progressive Marxist Socialist/DSA Democrats and the MSM will NEVER cover any of this unless/until there are indictments and prosecutions of those who were directly involved in the collusion-hoax conspiracy.
We "Deplorables" knew we were getting a bare-knuckles brawler when we elected-- or decided to support-- Donald Trump, so it should come as no surprise that we are getting what we asked for. I would dearly love to see the collusion-hoax conspirators brought to justice, but I suspect that a fickle and purposely kept under-informed American public will lose sight of the endgame unless it is constantly reminded of what that endgame is. In saner times, the media could be relied upon to keep the ball in view as it made its way to the goalpost, but we do not live in sane times.
 
The problem is that silence is often misinterpreted as meekness or compliance-- or maybe even submission-- by large swaths of the public. We conservatives excoriated George W. Bush for not "shooting his mouth off" in response to his critics and/or in defense of his policies. Perhaps DJT should be "moving on"-- I get that-- but I also get the fact that the enemies ranged against him (i.e., the Democrat-controlled media) are especially obdurate and all-pervasive, with much of the enmity coming from within his own party; therefore, it is incumbent upon this president to "cover his own six" unless and until subordinates step in to do it for him.
The flip side to Rahm Emmanuel's "never let a crisis go to waste" may be "never bypass an opportunity to rub your enemy's nose in his own ordure." We knew we were getting a bare-knuckles brawler when we elected-- or decided to support-- Donald Trump, so it should come as no surprise that we are getting what we asked for. Like you, I would dearly love to see the collusion-hoax conspirators brought to justice, but I suspect that a fickle and under-informed American public will lose sight of the endgame unless it it is constantly reminded of what that endgame is. In saner times, the media could be relied upon to keep the ball in view as it made its way to the goalpost, but we do not live in sane times.
It's just that the "faces on cable TV" who support the president seem to be confined to FNC and are thus preaching to that choir we've heard so much about. The "other side" is happy to ignore his messages-- until they just cannot do so any longer, if only because he won't shut up and they are reluctantly (and even then, grudgingly) forced to cover what he says. Already we are beginning to see fissures on the PMS/DSA Left vis-à-vis its worship of certain collusion-deluders, with someone as staunchly anti-Trump as Terry Moran excoriating John Brennan for his insidious lies. And Rachel Maddow may be thinking of setting up a cot in the ratings basement. It's arguable just how many of these epiphanies are attributable to Trump's rhetoric, but one cannot discount the notion that DJT himself played a part in the conversion-- however long it lasts.
