Nobody. Because there's no there there.
The suggestion of nefarious behavior worked on Hillary during a campaign because she was facing a vote. Trump's in office. Focusing on the Russia thing is chasing the holy grail. It doesn't fucking exist. Sure, a clown like Stone may get indicted for smoothing, but Trump's not sophisticated enough, and Manafort is too smart, for there to have been any real collusion. (Manafort was playing his Russians, selling entree to nothing. He's the only guy more surprised than Trump that Trump was elected.)
While Trump plays Nunes, and Nunes plays Schiff on this Russia bullshit, the narrative to which average voters are actually paying attention - ACA repeal - gets short shrift.
Friday's headline should read, if the Dems are smart, "Tea Party Sinks ACA Repeal." That ink should not be competing with, "Schiff Says Nunes is Backstabber."
No one gives a fuck about the Russia story expect people reading boards like this, and the sliver of people still paying attention to the stories about it in WaPo and Times.
Millions more care about the ACA Repeal. And they care a lot.
The Dems are chasing too many shiny objects.
