Can we all please snatch the word "collusion" back from Trump and turn it on him?

The Mueller Report is full of examples of the Trump Campaign "colluding." Mueller goes to great pains to point out that the word means nothing to his investigation, but we and the press keep letting Trump have a "victory" on "collusion." That's nuts. Letting Trump succeed in framing the issue the way he did and getting off on the collusion he did is nuts.

Please. The Trump Campaign did "collude," both actively and passively, and the evidence of that is in the report in spades. In addition, they disgracefully and eagerly accepted the benefit of an illegal Russian assault on our country.

We should say something like, "The Mueller Report doesn't say that Trump and his campaign didn't collude. The report's full of examples of what normal, common sense, decent-minded Americans would call 'collusion.' If Trump wants to say he didn't collude, maybe he should explain all of the cases in the Mueller Report where it appears he and his team did just that."

campaign. Anybody who has eyes and a brain cell or two left can clearly see the collusion by
THE TABLE OF CONTENTS ALONE.

So anybody who doesn't have time to read it or poo poo's it...just look at the damn table of contents for fucks sake.
