No “There” There

The Trump administration has consistently denied any involvement with Russia during the campaign. Despite the indictment of Trump’s former campaign manager Paul Manafort, the Trump administration maintains that the investigation is a waste of time and money and that it will result in no real findings. The next few weeks figure to be pivotal in this matter.
President Trump on Thursday called continued congressional probes into Russia’s election meddling a “disgrace,” arguing that the probes are bad for the country.In an interview on “The Howie Carr Show,” Trump asserted that Democrats and Republicans on the respective House and Senate committees have been forced to admit that they have found no collusion so far.
“In fact, even in all fairness with all of these investigations going on in the Senate and the House – they walk out, even the Democrats – ‘There’s no collusion but we’ll continue to look, there’s smoke, there’s no collusion but there’s – and the Republicans are coming out just saying, ‘There’s just no collusion,'” Trump said.”And it’s a disgrace that it can go on,” he added. “To honest it’s a disgrace and it’s bad for our country.”
Trump also knocked recent revelations that Facebook ads purchased by Russians reached millions of Americans during the 2016 election, claiming that the ads mostly addressed irrelevant issues.
“You look now at the ads with Facebook and this, it’s not even ads that pertain to what we’re talking about,” Trump said. “It’s a strange thing.”

Trump has previously dismissed Russian Facebook ads as a hoax perpetrated by the “dishonest” media.
