Not a conspirator, just a willing useful idiot

Somehow the idea that the President of the United States was not a willing conspirator with a hostile foreign government, but just a willing useful idiot is not comforting to me in the least. That is the best possible takeaway, considering the AG emphasized that the Russians actively interfered in our presidential election. Trump should be impeached for being an unwitting useful idiot.
