The majority of Americans, according to the poll, are concerned about Russia and support the Mueller investigation, they just want Congress to shift their focus from the investigation to other issues.

So, no, most Americans are not fed up with the investigation, they just don't want it to fall on Congress.

So don't fall prey to this illusion created daily by the vocal trumpets that the majority of Americans care.

Obviously obama fell asleep at the wheel and thought it was in the bag. But the DNC is the one to really blame in all of this stuff. Lack of security then the lack of allowing the FBI to investigate. Obviously they were hiding something especially now since their top two candidates are under FBI investigation.

Some people seem to think that,obviously, they are hiding something since they are under an FBI investigation.

This is par for the course when it comes to the world. The issue is the DNC got hacked not because piton wanted the GOP to win..... he tried to hack the GOP as well. The difference was that the GOP had security and cooperated with the FBI when it happened. The DNC didn't ..... do I want either party hacked? Ofc not. But do I want to stop any potential agreement to work with Russia on world affairs..... no. We tried being the enemy of Russia for decades..... let's try working together. If we applied the same metrics to Every alley that we apply to Russia we would have no friends.

Idk, time will tell either way. All I am saying is it would have been nice to see it tried. Russia isn't going to work with us when all we care about is climate change, gay weddings, and Islam.

Also any of the progressive presidents in the past were always anti Russia because it was easy.

We should be leveraging Russian resources against the Middle East countries to put the squeeze on the economically. At least until they get their Islam problems under control.

Really, as long as Putin is in power there will be tensions. Part of his power is based on there being tension between our countries. I got to here a former US ambassador to Russia discuss the relations between our countries and it was very interesting to get that perspective on how things are going. I'd love to know everything he knows, because I can only imagine the things he cannot say.
