I’ve said for months that I doubt there’s any material collusion between Trump principals and the Russians. Assuming that’s true, it just makes the lies, omissions, and deceptions that much more stupid (at least IMO). From the git-go, I think the Administration should have condemned any involvement by the Russians in interfering with our election; and indicated they’d cooperate fully with the investigation, but state they’re going to refuse to comment further publicly because they’re focused on working hard on behalf of the American people.
Instead we get self-inflicted wound after self-inflicted wound (e.g., meetings not disclosed, tweets that Obama “wiretapped” him, Comey “tapes” tweets, changing and/or misleading stories, etc.). As The Donald might tweet: “Sad”.
