1. My disagreement here is I don't think "chaos and dysfunction" of Trump campaign makes it less likely something really bad is at core of Russia story. Quite the opposite.https://twitter.com/blakehounshell/status/965388848300634113 …

6. The unknown unknown, and the reason why some of
@blakehounshell's skepticism is in order, is will evidence of Trump obstruction of justice tied with other bad behavior of his underlings be enough to spark impeachment.Show this thread -
7. But where
@blakehounshell's skepticism is off base is in ignoring 1) fact Mueller still ongoing & 2) just how bad what we already know is. As here:https://twitter.com/ObsoleteDogma/status/965458692748599296 …Show this thread -
8. So far we have one campaign advisor, one NSA, one deputy campaign manager plead guilty & one campaign manager arrested. That's a big scandal.

9. The whole idea of "smoking gun" is a wrong metaphor. We're dealing with a pointillist painting made of a thousand different facts. But the painting isn't yet complete, so no gestalt. But picture forming looks very corrupt.

I think some different factors are getting needlessly conflated here. Unlikely: Trump left direct specific evidence of quid pro quo election collusion. No need for him to do it. More likely: Trump has done some seriously bad OTHER things over the years that Mueller will uncover.

Trump has been enmeshed with Russian money for many years. Russia was going to help him get elected regardless. No need for any secret agreement. Mueller seems to have a broad investigation going on. He’s finding out a LOT. Money laundering. Shady deals. Obstruction.

It's endlessly amusing that the chattering class can't possibly conceive Donald working with the Russians. I'm old enough when they dismissed Russia's meddling out of hand. The fact is, Jeet, you're suffering from a lack of imagination.
