Watch this.
As has been obvious for years now, to anyone outside of the mainstream media/liberal bubble, ‘Russiagate’ really was fake news, as Trump has claimed all along. It has been a giant gift for him. God forbid liberals actually oppose him on real issues - this is not really possible, given that they agree with him on most of those issues; neoliberalism and imperialism are bipartisan. So they and the 'deep state' chose to focus on a nonsense story about Trump and Russia, to distract and avoid scrutiny for their submission to that neoliberalism in recent decades - which is the real culprit for giving us Trump.
But nothing will change. The media organizations that peddled this propaganda for 4 years, whilst the US continued meddling in countries around the world, bombing Yemen, etc, will not change. And they will continue to be seen as arbiters of truth by Silicon Valley; they'll continue getting favorable algorithms and high placing on Google etc, whilst small, independent media sites are suppressed. Consent will continue to be manufactured.
And the Democrats will remain a neoliberal, corporatist party of the elite.
