That's because there is no evidence.

If there were, the NSA, CIA, FBI and Director of National Intelligence would have presented it a long time ago and Trump would have been indicted by a grand jury.

As for the latest fake news stories about Trump supposedly trying to stop the investigation, all are based on anonymous sources. How surprising!
If you listened to Brennan yesterday there was enough Russian connections that he recommended the FBI perform further investigation. That investigation is still in progress. Many of the congressmen with the appropriate clearance have also seen the intelligence, when the time comes so will the public.

Show me the man and I will find the crime.

This is what is happening.

If it is so comical, how come people in career intelligence positions feel the need for multiple investigations?

Don't forget to use "collusion" in each sentence. It plays well to the others in your Leftist echo chamber!

Let me splain something to you Skippy. Your team is out of power and we're not going to take your advice or the road map you are so anxious to explore.
Better luck next time! LOL

It's not like Trump and his compadres are offering any help or information to help clear things up and move them along.
The Watergate investigation was based on an actual crime that took place -- Nixon campaign operatives breaking into the DNC headquarters.

We have yet to hear that any crime occurred to justify an investigation into Trump.

When asked if there's any evidence that Trump did anything wrong, the intel agencies have said "no."

On the other hand, we know that Obama's former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and her minions committed perjury, destroyed evidence after it was subpoenaed, gave the Russians 20% of our uranium in return for contributions to the Clinton Foundation, and mishandled classified material -- and there is no investigation into them going on that I know of.

We know that Obama's Attorney General Loretta Lynch obstructed justice by meeting with Bill Clinton. No investigation into her that I know of.

We know that Obama's FBI Director Comey obstructed justice by misrepresenting the relevant statute in the Hillary investigation. No investigation into him that I know of.

We know that Obama's CIA Director Brennan spied on the Senate Intelligence Committee and then lied about it. No investigation into him that I know of.

We know that Obama's Director of National Intelligence Clapper lied to Congress about Americans being spied on by the NSA. No investigation into him that I know of.

We know that Obama's IRS commissioner Koskinen lied about there being no records of IRS targeting of political groups. No investigation into him that I know of.

We know that Obama's IRS employee Lois Lerner took the fifth when questioned about the IRS targeting. No investigation into her that I know of.

Obama and his stooges -- the biggest gang of crooks ever to run this country.

But look at that shiny object over there -- it's Trump and the Russians!

LOL, yes you won, so guess what that means, it means that the Repubs are the ones going after your Fearless Leader, and it will not take much for them to move on to President Pence. Enjoy that, Buckaroo

The investigation knows no party lines.

Wrong.

There was evidence that a crime was committed by Nixon operatives right at the beginning of the Watergate investigation.

They were caught breaking into the DNC headquarters.

As soon as you come up with evidence that Trump and the Russians colluded, let us all know.

In the meantime, this is an investigation without a crime to investigate.
