Seem like the most appropriate hashtags for tweeters these days. Just sayin'.

After digesting the essence of the Mueller report, I don't know how it can be called any less than treason.

Whether it can be effectively prosecuted, is another matter. But it won't be prosecuted unless people realize the enormity of it.

is truly the problem, I believe. We might be shocked at seeing the depth this stuff goes. We never really kidded ourselves about corruption in politics or lying or misleading statements, it was “politics as usual”. But in this case, this blatant in your face corruption with naked intent of trying to bury your political opponent with wild innuendos hyped by a foreign power puts us within the “You can’t handle the truth” scenario.

The shock of dumping all that on the public might have the same effect as proving aliens really do exist or that Jesus was a myth or that republicans really are going to lower your taxes.

It's treason. Perpetrated not just by the Trump campaign but all his aiders and abettors in the Republican Party.

And yes, getting that to sink in to a sufficient number of heads in the public is probably right up there with a couple of the things you list.
