    Ever. There’s not even a close second.

    No, he said that Mueller didn't address the issue of collusion. Mueller was there to explain if there was obstruction of justice. Schiff then goes on to list the instances of collusion which, as he says, are in plain sight.
    So saying this was a conspiracy theory is simply wrong. We know that Russia offered help, we know that Trump's team accepted the help, we know that Trump asked for Russia's help on TV, we know that Russia then helped Trump.
    If this is a conspiracy theory, then the theory has been proven.

    Muller was there to investigate Russian interference in the election, and any connection between this interference and Trump.

    Schiff then goes on to list the instances of collusion which, as he says, are in plain sight.
    All he listed was gish gallop. If you think he listed actual collusion, pick one item out of the gish gallop and present it here so we can properly vet it.

    The last three years of rampant schadenfreude proves this isn’t outside the realm of possibility.

    Not to mention, there is evidence of Trump’s claim about the adversarial press and the media.

    “The results show some causal evidence for a media effect: recession headlines were a significant prior influence on the determination of consumer sentiment in this study. There is some limited evidence of an adversarial press effect, wherein the president's growing popularity rather than real world economic conditions appears to have led an increase in the number of recession headlines.”

    That was some crazy shit that StoneByStone posted in that video where Adam says the Mueller team never investigated for collusion. Like you just said, that was the whole point of the investigation.

    "Who’s in this conspiracy? Democrats and the news media, of course. Plus economists, also the Federal Reserve Board, nervous bond investors and foreigners in China and Europe who are causing a slowdown in global economic growth."

    "Trump believes that the divisive strategy that worked for him in 2016 will work again next year"

    Can see Rush, Bill, Laura, Tucker, and Sean all over this one, plays right into the conservative script, they haven't made themselves millionaires nor Trump himself President by informing their lemmings of the facts
    Hmm you must not pay attention to the news, because the left is trying to damage consumer confidence by all of the talk of a recession, trying to panic investors. Here is the worst part, you know it's true, and would rather people suffer to get a democrat elected, you are the worst kind of hate!

    There was no criminal conspiracy between Trump and Russia. Period. End of story.

    Even though every dimwit liberal pundit and media outlet claimed, often and loudly, that there was one, for over two years. The damage they did to our politics is incalculable.
