Okay, I'm going way out on this one, but, reading between the lines all this time, it seems that Mitch is the one who's driving the bus while Donald gets all the attention.
Putin may be many things, but he's a smart cookie. I have to believe that he's been using Donald as a useful idiot - a distraction - while Mitch is working behind the lines to do what Putin wants. Magicians call it misdirection, and it works. And the MSM is buying it hook line and sinker.
IMHO, Mitch needs to be investigated. And Donald needs to be ignored.
