This post summed it up for me. This whole Muh Russia thing was set up to destroy Trump After he lost. He was never supposed to win.

"What's even worse and an angle that I haven't heard talked about much is when you realize they laid all of this groundwork knowing that Trump would never win. This wasn't an attempt to take out Trump in the case that he won because that would be impossible. This was all laid out to destroy Trump after he lost. That's even more evil. They were going to railroad him, destroy him, and jail him for daring to challenge the crown. Think about that and thank Christ that they lost."
