Trump's 400 lb guy sitting on his bed...

Donald Trump has never believed that Russia attacked our election system. At one time, he said it may have been a 400 lb guy?

As far as we know, he has never changed his mind. He never believed the investigation was legitimate, snd neither did his supporters. That permitted him to call it a "witchhunt" and a "hoax".

Even after he was informed by our intelligence, he still could not accept it. He believed Putin over our own intelligence.

But Mueller stated in his report that Russia's attack was "sweeping and systematic". It was not some 400 lb guy.

We still do not know if Trump agrees with that conclusion?

But to suggest that the Mueller investigation was illegitimate and not necessary defies logic and common sense.

4. Trump's fear that the Russians' involvement in getting him elected would become known

is at the core of all of his behavior relative to the investigation. Putin wanted him to be elected, and whether or not there was a prosecutable conspiracy between Russians and the Trump campaign, there's no question that the Russians made the effort and Trump accepted it. This, of course, leads to the question of why Putin wanted Trump to win. We know he hated Hillary because of her adversarial position as SoS, but it's more than that. Putin has Trump by the short hairs for financial reasons. Whether Trump's financial involvement in Russia was or is criminal is not yet known, but maybe this is the subject of some of the redacted case referrals. In any event, we do know that Trump wanted very much to build a hotel in Moscow (the tallest building in Europe!), and his son Beavis (or was it Butthead?) bragged about how much money was coming in from Russia. Putin's fundamental goal was and is to disrupt and weaken the U.S. and NATO, which he could do by installing a president who was motivated by money to do pretty much anything Putin wanted. So he did what he could to make that happen.

But as much as he wants to give Putin what he wants so he can keep riding the oligarchs' money train, Trump hates it that he is being accused of winning the presidency with the help of the Russians and not solely on his own merits. His monstrous black hole of an ego can't stand that, even though it now appears to be indisputable. The Mueller report contains many references to his fear that his presidency would be considered illegitimate because of the Russians' involvement. That is precisely why he tried so hard to kill the investigation. That's why his mantra is "No collusion!" But "collusion" was never even necessary. The Russians wanted him to be president and he knew it. He just didn't want anyone to find out.
