Great job!
To be fair, a few of these "things" aren't directly about Russia. But they are all indictments against Trump and proof that he's the worst President we've ever had.
I'm stealing this 
Yes. Really is a weak case. Snicker.
to think there’s some kind of thing to think there’s something there?
Thank you!
there's no reason to actually believe there was collusion is there?
GREAT WORK, nm - THANK YOU!!
Excellent work, nmgaucho!
Thank you!
Don't you now this Russian thing is only a distraction. Nothing will come of it. We have to kowtow to little Putin to prevent WWIII. STOP picking on the Russian and Trump kleptocracy. It's all Hillary's fault.
Even once very liberal people, former Dems, are tying themselves up in knots to deny that Trump is a traitor.
How this clown is still President is beyond baffling, smdh
He has me on block...

remarkable post. Love it. And welcome to DU 
...welcome to DU!
...Donald Trump told us that nobody has been harder on Russia than HE.
We know that he's being truthful because in a debate in 2016 he told us that nobody respects women more than he does, and we know how true THAT was. Also, Evangelicals would only blindly support a man of HIGH morals, right? Otherwise we might think that they're really STUPID. 
Peace!
I finally finished, and now I’m hard of hearing and look forward to eating soft, bland foods.
Awesome list!
