Why so excited, aren't all the acolytes breathlessly repeating that the investigation is over.
So hey you got nothing to worry about right, your Dear Leader has been completely vindicated today, right?
It's not like there are other grand juries with sealed indictments for the co-conspirators mentioned in today's indictments against the Russian operatives, oh wait there are.

From what I've read over the past few days, all your hopes and dreams rest on the shoulders of Gates now.

How so??
He just agreed to plead guilty, btw.
How would one's hope's turn on Gates one way or another? He rolls on Manafort. But Manafort probably can't roll on Trump because Manafort has more to fear from the Russians than Trump. Manafort won't have secret service protection the rest of his life like Trump will. Manafort is at least as deep into the Russian mob as Trump, and that mob plays for keep, people end up dead. Manafort may dearly want to testify against Trump, but perhaps he can't because he fears for his family.
Just speculating.
Our "hopes" do not run through Gates.
The "hopes" to get at the truth, something we DO actually want, goes through Flynn and Kushner and Cambridge Analytica's data, and who gave that data to the Russians. THAT is where the big crimes will come down.

Ah, I see.
Well, my "speculation" is based upon all that we've been seeing now for 3 years. "Russia, if you're listening ..."
It is no longer conceivable to me that Trump didn't know exactly what was happening with respect to Russia as far back as 2013. He patented "Make America Great Again" (or filed the patent) in 2012, met with top Russian officials in late 2013, by 2014 was retweeting stuff on running, blah blah blah.
You can call it speculation, but the only thing that has surprised me so far is how much more there was than I thought. Trump's a Russian agent, it's why he won't cross them even now.
If Mueller comes out and says "Nope, we investigated the whole thing and found no evidence that collusion existed" I will fully accept that is the reality, and everything just looked strange. Until then, I do speculate that Trump is blackmailed and dirtier than any president ever.

Why? Gates is one small part of a very large counterintelligence investigation.
Flynn hasn't been sentenced yet, Papadumbass who wore the wire in the White house(eek) hasn't been sentenced yet
& both are still cooperating as apparently now is Gates.
As they have been telling their stories more Grand Juries have been impaneled & new indictments drop.
Now Gates will merely add to the narrative & most porbably be a springboard to further warrants & indictments.

Remember when your country removed the laws regarding propaganda?
Yeah, might have something to do with that.

Whatever man, tell yourself what you need to believe.
The obstruction investigation is barely getting started, it was just this past week that Mueller sat with Mark Corallo, he's the ex legal team member who can place Hore Hicks at the center of obstruction with Trump & the AirForce1 memo.
That & you're completely neglecting the concurrent State investigations regarding money laundering & bank fraud.
More than one way to skin an apple.

They just need to believe that there is *some* chance he won't finish his first term & be re-elected (he will finish the 1st, probably be re-elected too, if he decides to run that is)
Either way, I've resigned myself to letting them believe whatever they want. Only problem I've ever had with that was hearing people spread their opinions as though they were fact.
An under-the-radar startup funded by billionaire Eric Schmidt has become a major technology vendor for Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign, underscoring the bonds between Silicon Valley and Democratic politics.
The Groundwork, according to Democratic campaign operatives and technologists, is part of efforts by Schmidt—the executive chairman of Google parent-company Alphabet—to ensure that Clinton has the engineering talent needed to win the election. And it is one of a series of quiet investments by Schmidt that recognize how modern political campaigns are run, with data analytics and digital outreach as vital ingredients that allow candidates to find, court, and turn out critical voter blocs.
But campaigns—lacking stock options and long-term job security—find it hard to attract the elite engineering talent that Facebook, Google, and countless startups rely on. That’s also part of the problem that Schmidt and the Groundwork are helping Clinton’s team to solve.
The Groundwork is one of the Clinton campaign’s biggest vendors, billing it for more than $177,000 in the second quarter of 2015, according to federal filings. Yet many political operatives know little about it. Its website consists entirely of a grey-on-black triangle logo that suggests “the digital roots of change” while also looking vaguely like the Illuminati symbol
