What is collusion? Was Trump hard on Russia and Putin or are his actins deceptively NOT hard on Putin?
"What does ‘collusion’ really mean?"
By Merrill Perlman 7 Nov 2017
"The derivation of “collusion,” in fact, is pretty benign. As Merriam-Webster noted, “‘collusion” is from the Latin “colludere, formed from com- (‘with,’ ‘together’) and ludere (‘to play’): the literal meaning of collusion is ‘playing together.’”
That kind of “collusion” sounds like fun: If you “collude” with some friends to throw a surprise birthday party for another friend, people won’t think ill of you. And just thinking of “collusion” doesn’t make it so. It takes at least two to “collude,” and both must be in on it."
So President Trump did not need to hide and lie about his many Russian contacts, nor did so many of his campaign staff people. They were just having fun. See, just read what the "Columbian Journalism Review" says.

The cartoon shows Trump beating Putin bloody, but is he really Putin, and is it really blood? lol!
I think what we see is a dance of sorts, a Kabuki ceremony where Trump and Putin try to look at odds with each other, while having fun!
It seems Americans who support President Trump and want the Mueller Report to exonerate him and his employees to "collusion" with Russia are missing a critical point. Despite the Mueller Report, which only Barr has seen, and for which Barr is the sole arbiter in summarizing 800 pages to 4 pages in 48 hours, there is much more to think about.
Russia wants to promote a Civil War in the United States. If your President supports Putin and Russia, and does not fight their tactics, he is allowing interference in US government. If Trump is doing nothing to halt the Russia attack, he is colluding more now than anyone ever dreamed of by his inaction. Doing nothing is doing a LOT!
If Americans and especially the GOP is so afraid of Social Democrats, why are they not afraid of Russia's Communism? If President Trump is doing nothing to stop Russia hacking future US elections, he is betraying America, and colluding with Russia.
This is not a question of crime, this is a question of loyalty to the United States!
If President Trump is doing nothing about Russia propaganda in America, hacking elections and working to help divide our country like he is dividing France, feeding fake news and false narratives to us for a Civil War, he is a traitor to the United States.
