      Yeah, you made fun of the Resistance grifters and low-hanging fruit Twitter crazies. (This piece was actually good). Bu that's different from engaging on the substance/details of this demented narrative that dominated American politics for three years

      "narrative that dominated American politics for three years" is where your mistake lies.

      It's genuinely astounding that you could seriously argue Trump/Russia didn't dominate the national political narrative for three years. Breathtakingly delusional

      I'm genuinely astounded that you think Trump/Russia was more important than health care, courts, Muslim ban, family separation, erratic foreign policy. It's notably Dems pols rarely talked about Trump/Russia on campaign trail.

          Trump Russia was a narrative that dominated american politics less than the muslim ban? You don't believe that Jeet.

          I mean we had the whole midterm election coverage that was mostly absent of RussiaGate because it was not being ran on by most Dems. @HeerJeet is not lying here.

          He's absolutely correct on that point but Russiagate has dominated the news over the last three years, no doubt. While it gets overshadowed every now and then by other stories, it's been the constant, the fixture of cable news and other media for these last three years.

          You're kidding, right? It was wall-to-wall coverage. Every day, every night, every Sunday, gleeful pundits told us the walls were closing in, bombshell after bombshell that didn't last a day before needing to be retracted. You're either not very bright or a liar.
