Just on the Today Show. Americans aren't buying Russians story line any longer. Polling shows majority back Trump actions so far. Job creation efforts are his strongest ratings, and that he will need more time to change DC
Blames Congress
Should make for some interesting primaries

Isn't the Russian plot constantly getting thicker?

Because the public is stupid for the most part.

In the media's eyes. It's a tough sell to accuse people like Jeff Sessions of Russian collusion all of a sudden, when the accusation had never come about in his decades long career.
Cry wolf too many times, and no one believes you.

I find it interesting and CONVENIENT that the 'public' that agrees with the "other side" is always "stupid".
Amazing how consistently those OTHER people are the "stupid" ones.

Maybe it is. But you could have said the same thing in December, January, February, March...... The point being, people have tuned it out. Since November the media has portrayed EVERYTHING as a stage 5 catastrophe. When EVERYTHING is a reason to panic, nothing is a reason to panic.
I've said it before, but the media/democrats are the crazy girlfriend who freaks out about every little thing. Eventually, you don't know what actually is a big deal and what isn't. Thus, you just tune her out as being nuts

Meh kinda but I really don't think Trump's supporters will give a damn unless they find evidence that Trump directed the hacking and release timing with WikiLeaks.
And this story is a long arse way from that.

And the MSM isn't? We are largely a nation of idiots, but that is large part due to the fact that our news isn't even news. No substantive policy discussions about real issues and opinions parroted as fact. If you hold a policy position that is outside of "acceptable American dialogue" you are effectively shut out, censored or lampooned by our media. They did it to Ron Paul in 2008 and 2012 and Bernie Sanders in 2016.

I don't think there has been this much skepticism of American media before.

Liberals offer no solutions. They only demean and play the race card.
You can see this by the resident liberals on this site.

Nope
They went live to a gathering at a popular breakfast spot when the NBC story was on that said Trump had talked to Putin a 2nd time, at a dinner party with 200 people present, and that only the Russian interpreter knew what was said between them (GASP). The entire table of diners busted out laughing. That's when they called it "Russian Illusion"
