What is illegal about the FBI starting a counterintelligence investigation into trump as a traitor to the country that he was allegedly elected to run?
The FBI did not inform Congress they were doing this and the only ostensible reason they started down this road is because Trump Fired Comey, something that is well within his constitutional duties and prerogative. Why didn't the FBI start a CI investigation when 0bama said to the Russians he would be more flexible after the elections? Or when he sent planeloads of cash to the Iranians? It is not the FBI's job to investigate policy difference with the president. The FBI just can't investigate anyone without a crime or intelligence from proper sources (5 eyes.)

But let's consider the fact that the trump campaign paid to have poll results tilted in his favor during his candidacy.
Sure. Someone said that Trump paid some money to someone to flood an online poll in his favor. An online poll? Really? Not only is that done all the time, nobody believes those polls. Try to be serious.

Let's consider all of the private meetings (some where interpreters notes were confiscated) that trump, his campaign staff, his kids, and members of his cabinet had with Russian Operatives between 2015 and 2018.
Ok. What about it? You might remember that the government was leaking like a sieve after Trump was elected. There were leaks about everything he was doing, including when he was taking a leak. I also remember when the entire transcripts of his phone conversations with other heads of state were leaked and published. It took a long time to plug all these leaks (may of them from the DOJ/FBI/CIA,) and it's only normal that you would not want to have your private conversations with heads of state splashed all over the news It's very rude towards these other heads of state and they would stop talking with us, knowing whatever they said would be leaked, analyzed and commented upon by nasty people and page 1 in the NYT, LAT and other vile places. I'm glad Trump controlled all that. I would expect the same from any president.

Let's consider all of the US policies that trump has changed at the bidding of Russia and Putin the puppeteer.
Sure. Name one. On the other hand, Trump going after Germany because they are buying gas directly from Russia is certainly not at the bidding of Putin. Having a couple hundred Russian soldiers killed by our troops was not at the bidding of Russia. Allowing the growth of the US oil industry by reversing fiats and allowing pipelines and lifting all manners of moratoria is certainly not in the interest of Russia since they get a lot of revenue from their oil and the US under Trump is now the biggest oil and gas producer in the world and they price of oil is low, hurting Russia's oil revenues.
I got lots more. What have you got?

Let's consider the deaths of 4 US Citizens yesterday at the hands of ISIS, because trump decided to pull out of Syria. This is one time that the blood is on trump's hands, and the hands of his Cabinet!
Why are we in Syria in the first place? Also, tell me why the decision to pull out of Syria is the cause of death of 4 US soldiers? I'm happy to talk about Benghazi where Hillary and 0bama let 4 US citizens get killed by a) sending them there in the first place b) not providing the security they requested multiple times c) not allowing US forces to intervene and rescue them during the 13 hour ordeal and then lying about what happened. We lost a US ambassador in Libya; this is not to believe any of the other victims, but the circumstances were definitely not the same.

I can't wait to have the last laugh at your expense when the indictments are handed out!
Let's wait and see what happens. Barr should be confirmed shortly and Rosenstein will not want to stick around when he shows up at work. The FBI/DOJ has been cleaned out some, but it needs more cleaning. It remains to be seen if Barr is the person to do it.
The leaks are at fever pitch high right now. The coup has failed and the cover up of the cover up is in full swing through these leaks. There are now two competing camps leaking but even the stuff coming out of the cabal's mouthpiece (NYT) is pretty damning. I think they are just spreading it out so no one is shocked when it comes out officially.
And it's possible it may never come out officially; Trump has gained a huge amount of leverage from all this and he is holding all the cards. I did hear what he said last week about us being shocked when we find out who was involved. Remember, Trump doesn't bluff. And he's very vindictive, one of his nicer qualities.
