As to the Russia connection itself, I'm not sure it isn't meant to distract from the real crime of stealing votes in swing states, either by not counting provisional and mail-in ballots or outright manipulation of the records. I doubt if Russia was determinative but I'm fairly certain the number rigging was. But even if Russia isn't the worst or only perp I think it's great to stay focused on our compromised elections and the undemocratic results they produce.

p.s. JMHO, YMMV
