And yet @marcorubio and others scramble to shield Trump.
From Rubio: "We can say, without any hesitation, that the Committee found absolutely no evidence that then-candidate Donald Trump or his campaign colluded with the Russian government. . ."🤦♀️

The problem isn't just a lawbreaking, Putin-loving president.
The problem is that he is being shielded by a major political party.
Trump would not be where he is without the Senate Republicans protecting him.

I've talked about @ruthbenghiat explanation of how Trump co-opts and corrupts people. See:
Trump draws people in to his web of deceit.
Michael Cohen, James @Comey and others explain how Trump "eats your soul in pieces." (quotation from Comey)

The report tells us, in very strong terms, that "the Russian government engaged in an aggressive, multi-faceted effort to influence . . . the outcome of the 2016 election."

The coordination between the Trump officials (Manafort, Roger Stone, @GeorgePapa19 are outlined again, with additional evidence incriminating Trump. (We find out that Trump did talk to Roger Stone about Wikileaks)
But still, @marcorubio and others leap to defend him.

Anyone who watched the impeachment proceedings knows that the GOP leadership will go to great lengths to eagerly and passionately lie for Trump and protect him.
I included the words "eagerly" and "passionately" because their support is not tepid, half-hearted, or reluctant.

Some of their passion is because of the dynamics that @ruthbenghiat, @comey and others describe.
Once they're corrupted, they have no choice but to ardently defend Trump (and themselves).
Some is because the Fox-Trump-GOP is ideologically aligned with Putin's Russia.

They prefer an alliance with Putin's Russia to the European Union.

The Report seems to cover the same ground as the Mueller Report, but goes a bit farther and is written with more force—and comes from a bipartisan Senate committee.

Here we see the bipartisan committee making a curious excuse for the Trump campaign: Foreign entities "took advantage" of their "relative inexperience."
So it's okay to elected a president so "inexperienced" that he can be manipulated by foreign entities? 🤦♀️

The sad conclusion is that no matter what Trump does, they'll defend him.
Here's Ron Johnson getting in on the act. The right-wing well-oiled propaganda loop will swing into action.
Fine. Go at it. Spin and deflect.
Enough people know the truth.
