VDH: The Damage Caused by the Russiagate Hoax

I generally agree, though I'm skeptical about some of his points.

Seems to me that we face two very similar situations here--though the evidence of Obama shenanigans is much stronger than the evidence of Trump-Russia collusion.

But when Trump was accused, all the media's guns immediately turned on him...whereas now that Obama is accused...all the media's guns again turn on Trump... Outlandish accusations against Trump: he is obviously guilty and there's no rational alternative!  Plausible but unproven accusations against Obama: Trump is guilty of making unproven accusations!

I wish the Trump administration had taken the high road and merely laid out the evidence against Obama instead of leaping to "treason!", the nuclear option.

But that's not the kind of thing we can expect from Trump.

Instead, he's basically lowering himself to the Democrats' level.
