He’s been “deemed” much worse for over 2 years running.

Your parroting pundits.

And that's fine, your misunderstanding will not affect anything.
I didn't misunderstand anything, you specifically said

I simply pointed out that he couldn't be indicted for collusion because it's not illegal so now you claim that I'm the one who is misunderstood? Give me a break.

Even if Trump is "completely cleared", which I think is nearly impossible, this investigation was a complete success. Simply by revealing what absolute trash Trump surrounded himself with. On purpose.

Collusion to throw an election would be criminal. It's not the "collusion" it is the "throwing an election."

You might want to look up the synonyms for "collusion". One of them is "conspiracy" - which IS a crime.
So YEAH, "collusion" IS a crime - it's just not called that particular name.

https://www.thesaurus.com/browse/collusion

In fact:

"Bad News for Trump? Judge in Russia Case Says Collusion Could Be Enough for Criminal Charge

One rallying cry behind supporters of President Donald Trump when it comes to the Russia investigation is that even if there is evidence that the Trump campaign colluded with Russia, collusion itself is not a crime unless it was done through actions that were independently illegal. That means that if, for example, the Trump campaign was involved in the hacking of Democratic National Committee emails, that would be a problem because the hacking would be the illegal act. Merely talking to Russia or coordinating certain legal activities would not be a problem, the argument goes, because “collusion” itself is not illegal.

That last part may be true, but a recent opinion in case brought by Special Counsel Robert Mueller points out that there are situations where collusion in the form of even legal acts could still result in a criminal charge. Specifically, it’s the statute of Conspiracy to Defraud the United States...."

Fascinating. OP's thread is a weird twist on the age-old "When did you stop beating your wife?" tactic of interrogation.

How will you react when Trump is completely cleared by Mueller?

So, can we all agree that the Mueller investigation should proceed unhindered in any way?
