First we listen to how he cooperated with Russia and was guaranteed to get booted from office because of collusion. Over a year later and nothing worthwhile has been discovered.
Have patience. Collusion will be hard to prove and will unlikely be what brings Trump down. It'll be tax fraud, wire fraud, mail fraud, obstruction of justice, etc. Might take another year, but he's done. Already two guilty pleas and two indictments.

Earlier this month, we posted a report identifying key weaknesses in the Senate and House tax bills. Based on the conference bill released last week, this report updates our analysis describing some of the major games, legal roadblocks, and glitches in the legislation.
This represents the continued work of a group of legal experts from across the country. Unfortunately, while the conference bill addressed some of the issues we described in our earlier report, others were made worse, and the bill introduces fundamental—and in our view insurmountable—structural problems to the income tax.
Thus, the legislation is still likely to cost more than the current estimates of over $1 trillion, to advantage the well-advised (and their advisors) playing tax games in ways that are both deliberate and inadvertent, and to face legal roadblocks like WTO non-compliance that could undermine key components of the legislation. Finally, the bill still has glitches that could lead to haphazard and unexpected results that could arbitrarily favor or penalize taxpayers.

WASHINGTON — In the weeks after he became the Republican nominee on July 19, 2016, Donald Trump was warned that foreign adversaries, including Russia, would probably try to spy on and infiltrate his campaign, according to multiple government officials familiar with the matter.
The warning came in the form of a high-level counterintelligence briefing by senior FBI officials, the officials said. A similar briefing was given to Hillary Clinton, they added. They said the briefings, which are commonly provided to presidential nominees, were designed to educate the candidates and their top aides about potential threats from foreign spies.
The candidates were urged to alert the FBI about any suspicious overtures to their campaigns, the officials said.

By the time of the warning in late July or August, at least seven Trump campaign officials had been in contact with Russians or people linked to Russia, according to public reports. There is no public evidence that the campaign reported any of that to the FBI.
