It can be generally agreed upon that the Kremlin’s goal is to undermine western democracy. There is ample evidence that the obstruction of the political process by the Democrats, the leaking of classified information and the illegal unmasked surveillance of the present administration by the previous administration is doing more harm to our American political process than any Russian involvement. There is scant and unproven details that the Russians attempted to undermine our elections and the political process. The democrats and the previous administration are providing the chaos in our system and supporting the goals of the Kremlin.

Most of that makes perfect sense and is supported by my own personal observations. But what makes you think that the Kremlin wants to undermine western democracy? That's the only part I don't get. I guarantee the Russian government is sitting back in their comfortable chairs and enjoying the show that is the American political meltdown right about now. They have no need to lift a finger either way, western democracy is collapsing under its own corrupt weight. As for the Kremlin working to undermine foreign political systems, why would they bother? No-one is threatening them right now, they have no need to 'rock the boat', so to speak.

Nice try, but no cigar. If your theory were true, there wouldn't be so many republicans with the same message as the democrats. I do find it funny to see all these people crying "nothing to see here folks" BEFORE the investigation is finished - and they are all people who are secretly afraid that it IS true and they'll look like idiots. The only real idiocy, is refusing to face facts. Admitting that one was wrong, is the greatest show of strength there is, refusing to do so, is greatest example of stupidity known to man.
