[quote=Anonymous]It's pretty clear that no matter what happens next, Putin got his wish.

- Worst case scenario, Trump knowingly colluded with Putin.  Obviously terrible.
- Only slightly less bad, Trump's surrogates did without his knowledge.
- Absolute best case scenario, everything here is completely, 100% made up and everyone accepts this fact (and I think both are highly unlikely).  The fact that the possibility of this kind of collusion was ever seen as even potentially credible will forever taint our view of American elections...undermining our faith in our electoral process, exactly as Putin would want.

Similar situation for what to do next:
- Any Congressional investigation that could be completed by Jan 20 could not be thorough, so any finding would be suspect.
- If Trump is sworn in, there will remain the concern that he is a Russian agent.  And Putin wins.
- If he is not sworn in, there is the possibility that through sheer allegation a democratically elected POTUS (no matter how disgusting I may personally find him) was unseated due to innuendo about Russian activities.  Again, Putin wins.[/quote]
