What Happened To Russia?

I thought I would start this thought experiment off with a little trip down memory lane, remember long ago to what almost feels like ancient history now. Back to when the most pressing issue the mainstream media kept force feeding straight into our brains every moment of every day, like that poor chicken on Robot Chicken, was the Russian Collusion? When the leftist media and democrats were telling the world just how serious and treasonous this allegation was, and about all the hard evidence that would not only impeach the president, but get him locked up for life because he is apparently a Russian agent. Thing is that wasn't all that long ago, that was literally only 2-3 months ago when that was 24 hour news cycle and the only thing the opposition party could talk about. Not a single glimmer of evidence to support the allegations, and the 3 year FBI, $45 million investigation did not provide anything relating to anyone colluding with Russia?

But did they bother to then investigate what started the investigation, has anyone looked into the DNC server or the company that said it was Russia, or how the previous opposition administration had the FBI legally spied on a presidential candidate, based on a document paid for by the DNC? Apparently none of that is important anymore, the most important thing in the entire world right now is that Trump was on a call with the Ukrainian president and he asked if the Ukraine would look into the ongoing corruption investigation with Burisma and Joe Biden's son.

Now if you completely ignore absolutely all the lies, all the doomsday talk about Russia as well as everything that we know the democrats have done, including what the previous administration did, that is public knowledge, and then you have someone use a MIB memory wiping device on you, only then could you take any of this at face value. But even after all that you would still need to prove that there was some kind of quid pro quo happening between Trump and the Ukrainian president. The reason this can in no way be proven or has any validity is because the Ukrainian's had absolutely no knowledge that the military aid would be withheld much later on. The call took place on the 21st of April, and the Ukrainian administration only found out at the end of August that aid had been put on hold, there was no mention of it during the conversation that sparked this impeachment inquiry.

The other angle here is that Trump used leverage to have a foreign country investigate a running presidential candidate, Joe Biden. First off, the leverage or strong arm argument only works if the other party in said negotiation is aware of said leverage or strong arm, Trump was not holing any leverage over Zelensky in call, and if he did not mention it it was nothing more than asking a favor at the time of the conversation. Also just for the record, Zelensky brought up the Biden when he mentioned Rudy Giuliani, who has been investigating the Burisma corruption case that was instantly shut down when Joe literally said on TV that he would not release the $1 Billion to the Ukraine until they fire Prosecutor General Shokin. Who was heading the investigation into the company Burisma that Joe's son is working for, as well as the billions of dollars coming into the Ukraine, that went missing.

Lastly, this entire impeachment inquiry and hearings are nothing more than publicity to hammer on the orange man bad narrative, because the democrats are being slaughtered in the polls, and to date don't have any credible presidential candidate for the election next year. Also they haven't bothered to file articles of impeachment because the republicans hold the Senate and it wont pass. So this is nothing more than a media spectacle, hoping they can get the right sound bite that their marketing department, the MSM will endlessly rerun until the election next year.
