The campaign's handling of Russian election interference is an astounding controversy and a major deal even if there was not criminal conspiracy involved.

The investigation was oversold from the start. Many prominent Ds, Never Trumpers, and a load of media outlets created the perception that a criminal conspiracy would be found.
And then it wasn't.
If you don't get that from a messaging perspective, lack of finding of a criminally chargeable conspiracy = effective exoneration on the conspiracy, I can't help you. The Adam Schiffs of this debacle promised a hanging. They never even got past the preliminary hearing.
The controversy you describe has been known forever. Trump danced from afar with the Russians in plain sight. We didn't need this investigation to tell us that. The desire among most of the people who want to see Trump go down was to see this investigation take him out with a finding of a criminal activity. There was a lot of over-promising, and a lot of hope, and a lot of people now feeling let down at the ultimate result.
