The Russia meme is dead. Leftists lose yet again.

Now they want to make up stuff about the "nuclear footballs" and hate on Whitey some more.
When was it announced that the investigations had concluded? I must have missed that one.

Investigations..plural. We have 3 active ones and one closed one.

Anyone notice Mueller didn't leak anything juicy this week ?

What you want us to believe in America; you hate about the Russian government - you cannot have it both ways.
Do you not understand how investigations and Congressional hearings work?

Fools on this forum spread constant lies about Clinton. I can't tell you how many times the lie that she sold uranium to the Russians popped up. It was debunked constantly only to have it pop up again.

Fools believed the lies that were spread via FB, Twitter, Instagram, ...

Then voted based on these lies.
While they may look foolish now, I cut Trump voters some slack. Americans have been past due a big raise for decades so they were grasping at straws and the Russian propaganda pushed them over the line.

So while I don't believe they weren't fools then, they're showing themselves to be fools of the highest degree now. if they haven't come around at this point, they'll never summon up enough courage to admit that they've made a mistake.

Just like Trump, conservatives always seem incapable of admitting their errors...

I fully agree with this.

Given our choices last November, I can cut Trump voters some slack. What I can't understand is how he retains such a solid base of support today, especially considering the fact we are on the brink of a nuclear holocaust and possible extinction event. Tribal mentality is the only thing I can think of. People may not like everything Trump does, but they like that he spites the people they hate (minorities, Muslims, LGBT) and that is good enough for them.

The FBI one under Comey. Mueller took over for that when he got appointed Special Council.
And Wray said the FBI will not be starting up yet another one or continuing the one started by Comey.

So we have the House, the Senate and Mueller's Special Council.

I guess "closed" was a bad use of the word. The FBI one wasn't really closed but transferred to Mueller.

The only people that are ultimately foolish are those who think the Russian narrative will help Democrats regain power.
I mean do you seriously think voters will factor in Russia when they vote?
No, they'll factor in the economy/jobs above everything else.

This isn't about Democrats regaining power, and nobody thinks it will help us in the polls.
I don't think that people will factor in the jobs/economy when voting, because they certainly didn't do it in the last election. They'll vote party over country, and probably even more so now.

What investigations have anything to do with what I said?

The Russia meme is dead dead. Time to move on.
