The Schiff talking point of “the Trump campaign’s efforts to ‘welcome’ and ‘use’ Russia’s help” is the natural pivot from the failure of the collusion talking point/investigation. It’s transparently useless: the Trump camp joined the entire media in “welcoming” the stolen emails.
And before you bring up the Trump Tower meeting, recall that Don Jr. welcomed a Russian offer of assistance that didn’t actually exist. The fake offer was invented by Rob Goldstone, the UK music publicist who wrote the email to Don Jr.
This brings up one Q that Mueller could be asked: did the Trump campaign welcome any actual Russian gov’t offers of assistance from anyone acting on behalf of the Russian gov’t? The answer is no — because there were no actual Russian offers, & no actual Russian intermediaries.
