Mueller exposed fatal flaw of Trump-Russia affair: It was driven entirely by conspiracy/coordination allegation, which turned out to be false. 1/6 ow.ly/7jiL50usHpC
Backdrop of conspiracy/coordination made every Trump-Russia episode, including routine political activities, look sinister. Trump Tower meeting, statements on Russia, Flynn conversations--all looked suspicious in context of conspiracy/coordination. 2/6 washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/column…
If one believed Trump and Russia were conspiring/coordinating to influence election, then any bit of information having anything to do with Russia and Trump campaign looked incriminating. 3/6 washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/column…
Russia frenzy became so intense that reputable news organizations published long stories cataloguing all known 'contacts with Russians' by anyone associated with Trump campaign. Totally dependent on conspiracy/coordination context. 4/6 washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/column…
Only problem: It wasn't true. When Mueller was unable to establish conspiracy/coordination actually occurred, suspicious-seeming events could no longer be credibly cast as suspicious. The Trump-Russia bubble deflated. 5/6 washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/column…
