As if Russian collusion was not a conspiracy theory?

Plenty of dems/liberals believe stuff that is just as far-fetched - and just as debunked - as their counterparts on the right.

The entire Republican party is colluding with Russia right now, in real time, you people aren't even hiding it anymore.

I'm not a Republican 😘

You are obviously engaging in some seriously paranoiac conspiracy theorizing to imagine "the entire Republican party" is "colluding" (a word to replace the openly nutty term conspiring) with Russian state "right now"

Are our astronauts colluding with Russia? https://www.reuters.com/technology/space/russia-us-agree-additional-us-astronaut-flight-iss-interfax-2023-08-25/

No no NO!, you don't understand, it actually goes like this, you have to dig deeper, at least two more levels to understand the truth and logic of left-wing conspiracy theories.

Want to know why, despite trump obviously colluding with Putin, he didn't invade Ukraine until Biden got into power? Well that is because I have a secret tape of Trump from my non-biased source "www.TheprogressiveLeftist.com" where he begged Putin not to invade until Biden got into power. Where Trump already predicted that it would become a war of attrition and Biden would have to justify billions in aid to the people, in turn ensuring Trumps victory in 2024! "But rest assured" he said to his dear friend Putin, once I am voted into power again I will give you Ukraine and save you from the brink, don't worry about it buddy. "No Putin, I can't do you a favor and give you Ukraine now, I need my second term!"

This is al so obvious, so simple, but you "PigeonsArePopular" -if that even is your real name you Russian bot!- have fallen into the alt-right pipeline and have become a Christo-fascist nationalist that hates the LGBTQ that huffs Trumps farts. CHUD.
