Where's the Beef?

The FBI has been investigating Russian hacking of the Democrats since last July and this story morphed into Trump-Russia "collusion" after Hillary lost her shoe-in election in November. Now there are at least three venues for investigating this trumped-up conspiracy theory that somehow the Trump organization has colluded with Russia to do something bad. Exactly what this bad thing is is not quite clear. But nevertheless Trump is covering up this investigation and obstructing justice which proves that he is clearly guilty of something. And Michael Flynn, Obama's former National Security Advisor, somehow ingratiated himself into this same post with Trump before being found to be of questionable moral standing ... and was booted out. But the media is sure that he was a dastardly Trump operative in the "Russian connection."

There is but one small problem with this narrative ... after all this time there has yet to surface one solid fact that supports this frenetic innuendo ... nothing. Nothing in writing. Nothing on tape. No incriminating wiretap intercepts. No testimony by Obama's former intelligence operatives that categorically state that Trump or his campaign staff was is any way "colluding" with Russia to do anything illegal or immoral. Nothing. Yet Trump has been covering up this nothingness. And he has been dismissing this nothingness as nothingness ... and this must mean he has something to hide. What it is we don't know. But all this scandalous behavior will be revealed after the Democrats have retaken the House in 2018 ... "we promise" ... Just be patient Americans. Where there is smoke, there will be lots more smoke.

Unfortunately for the reputation of the Democrats and the national media, at some point we, the unwashed, are going to ask, "Where's the beef?" And, if there is none, Trump's cover-up evaporates as just an expression of his frustration at these roadblocks to moving his legislative agenda ... the agenda he promised the American people. And the agenda that the Democrats and the national media would rather stifle with lots of Russian conspiracy theory distractions ... so far somewhat successfully.
