What the Mueller report seems to show is that incompetence and random fuck ups are a lot more common than big conspiracies.
It makes me think, what if the reason Trump acted so weak and servile in front of Putin was actually because of the Russia investigation?
Maybe he watched shitty American cable news 24/7 for a year and eventually came to believe that Russia might actually have something on him.
If you are Donald Trump you've probably done all kinds of shady shit over the course of your life and hearing the press repeat over and over that they had blackmail material on him he might have eventually started to believe it.

^^ In the report they did reveal that there was a RU business man who wrote Cohen about tapes [context below]... he then told Mueller that he discovered the tapes were fake, but never told Trumpland - so to offer a different scenario that fits the information we do know: what if the Russians wanted Trump to believe there were tapes?
Context:
According to a footnote in the special counsel's report, which was released Thursday, Michael Cohen, Trump's former personal lawyer, received a text from Russian businessman Giorgi Rtskhiladze in October 2016 that said: "Stopped flow of tapes from Russia but not sure if there's anything else. Just so you know..."Rtskhiladze told Mueller that "tapes" referred to "compromising tapes of Trump rumored to be held by persons associated with the Russian real estate conglomerate Crocus Group," which had helped host the 2013 Miss Universe Pageant, according to the report (the pageant was owned by Trump for years). Cohen told the special counsel that he spoke to Trump about the issue after receiving Rtskhiladze's text.
Rtskhiladze also told prosecutors that he was told the tapes were fake, but that he didn't convey that to Cohen.

Even Chomsky agrees the $20 million dollar, 2 year hoax investigation is making everyone resembling a Demcrat look like a aluminum foil hat wearing wingnut of the highest caliber.
“[T]he Democrats are helping him,” Chomsky said. “They are. Take the focus on Russia-gate. What’s that all about? I mean, it was pretty obvious at the beginning that you’re not going to find anything very serious about Russian interference in elections.”
He added, “As far as Trump collusion with the Russians, that was never going to amount to anything more than minor corruption, maybe building a Trump hotel in Red Square or something like that, but nothing of any significance.”
Chomsky went on to say that he believes focusing too heavily on Russia may cost Democrats dearly next November.
“The Democrats invested everything in this issue,” Chomsky said. “Well, turned out there was nothing much there. They gave Trump a huge gift. In fact, they may have handed him the next election. ... That’s a matter of being so unwilling to deal with fundamental issues, that they’re looking for something on the side that will somehow give political success.”
- Thanks, Chomsky! We're good.BonSeff
- He's perfected stating the obvious.robotron3k
- The Mueller report wasn't only about Russia and even if he didn't conspire with Putin to fix the election, some shady things happened.********
- Trump and team has done some dodgy stuff, even if not all exactly illegal.********
- He's the President of the US and should be subject to checking in on.********
- BUT the Dems being so giddy to catch him is bad. Innocent until proven guilty is a thing.********
- Just because he didn't collude with Russia directly doesn't mean he hasn't done anything wrong.********
- It was the fbi investigating trump not dems or repubsteh
- Don't forget Chomsky goes on to say that he thinks the republican party is the most dangerous organisation on Earth, which is the follow up to this 'distractionT-Dawg
- Chomsky is Mr. "Doom & Gloom" as is the press, it sells. But believe it or not, Trump looks like David to Goliath, it's drama and Americans eat that up!robotron3k
- Trump isn't a traitor, he's just a lame billionaire who inherited the good life and is amazing at scaring people and pulling dumb people's emotional strings.********
- Ultimately I think the Russia thing is going to have zero effect one way or the other. It's not going to take down Trump but also not going to win him theqoob
- election. Everyone made their mind up long ago.qoob
- ^ yup. Robo would be blindly defending him even if charges were brought against him. The report was far more damaging to Trump than I thought it would be.formed
- He did his victory laps and just chants "liars" to all those that called him out. The saddest part is his lackeys just nod their heads in unison.formed

“sickened at the extent and pervasiveness of dishonesty and misdirection by individuals in the highest office of the land, including the President.
“I am also appalled that, among other things, fellow citizens working in a campaign for president welcomed help from Russia — including information that had been illegally obtained; that none of them acted to inform American law enforcement; and that the campaign chairman was actively promoting Russian interests in Ukraine,”

"Charles Rettig is Trump’s hand-picked IRS Commissioner.
