Americans are ready to put the Russia hoax behind them. At The American Spectator, David Catron warns Democrats that they should move on from their failed Russia narrative if they want to maintain control of the House. He notes that the president’s rallies are more successful than ever. He writes (abridged):
Congressional Democrats are committing a grave political blunder by continuing to push Russia conspiracy theories and insinuating that Attorney General William Barr is perpetrating a cover-up by complying with the law in his handling of the Mueller report. In addition to the special counsel probe, which produced no evidence of collusion or obstruction of justice by the Trump campaign, there have been two congressional inquiries that also failed to find proof of malfeasance. Several polls conducted since the Mueller probe ended suggest that most Americans believe the President is innocent of wrongdoing and that the Democrats are merely playing politics.
