The Mueller report was given to the Justice Department on Friday, and aside from those in trouble right now -- and going to jail there is little new "bad news" for Trump. It turns out that there appears to be insufficient evidence of collusion between Trump and the Russians. It doesn't mean that the Russians didn't try to influence the American vote towards Trump, just that Trump didn't seek this support he just got it...because as far as the Russians were concerned he was the better candidate (for them).
So why was Trump so pro Putin in virtually any environment? That too came out during the Mueller investigation; commerce seems to be at the source of his support for Putin. It seems that for personal reason Trump views his relationship with Putin as very important, Trump confused the interest of America with the interest of Trump. Not entirely surprising from such a narcists, but this doesn't equate to TREASON!!!
Some were saying (like the Guardian's Greenwald) that there was no real evidence of collusion, rather meetings were attended and information was given to the Trump organization that was used to damage Clinton's campaign, but the FBI's late investigation probably did more harm than anything the Russians could have cooked-up and that was done by 100% domestic players (who may have had their own agenda too).
The largest impact is on Pelosi (the fact that she downplayed the impeachment "card" for the last few months) and some of the centrist candidates for the Democratic nomination. All this hurts the press (actually both side talked complete BS during the entire investigation), with their crazy allegations. It also killed off Biden's presidential ambitions (he's the candidate of the past). The facts are not as bad for the press than some of the commentators would make believe -- there were some seriously bad people involved in Trump's campaign and they will/are paying a heavy price.
But seriously, how could Trump be involved in anything like a conspiracy, he doesn't have the patience or the bandwidth to do such a thing. Late into the election cycle Mueller has shown that Trump was working very hard on building his Trump tower project in Moscow -- it would have been a huge payday for him...that reasoning for being pro-Putin does make a lot of sense!
