The biggest point was that it allowed the Democraps and their MSM waterboys to claim during the campaign that Team Trump “Russia ties” were so serious as to merit national security investigations.
Finding anything useful to them would have been a big bonus, of course, but the Democraps hoped that the mere word of such investigations would be fatal to the Trump campaign. Instead, the libtards have whiffed over and over and over again.
“Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence”. I happen to agree with Carl Sagan on a lot of things, but this quote in particular. We have evidence, they do not. That is the difference.
