California Democrat Senator-elect Adam Schiff is doubling down on his false, unfounded claims of Trump-Russian collusion years later.
In an appearance on CNN’s “State of the Union,” host Jake Tapper questioned Schiff regarding President-elect Donald Trump’s recent cabinet picks, which included Florida Representative Matt Gaetz and former presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
“You were censured in the House last year for, in their view, holding positions of power during the Trump presidency as chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, and, according to them, ‘abusing this trust by saying there was evidence of collusion between Trump’s campaign and Russia,’” Tapper said.

Schiff responded by maintaining his stance on the issue, claiming that there is still evidence of collusion that has not been fully investigated. He pointed to the recent indictments of several Trump associates, including Paul Manafort and Michael Cohen, as further proof of wrongdoing by the Trump campaign.
However, Schiff’s claims have been widely criticized by both Republicans and Democrats alike. Many have accused him of pushing a false narrative for political gain, despite the lack of concrete evidence to support his assertions.
Schiff’s continued focus on the debunked Trump-Russian collusion theory has led many to question his mental state. Some have suggested that he is suffering from a severe case of Trump Derangement Syndrome, a condition that causes individuals to irrationally fixate on the former president.
Despite the backlash and criticism, Schiff shows no signs of backing down. He remains steadfast in his belief that there was collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia, and he is determined to see justice served.
It is clear that Adam Schiff has let his political biases cloud his judgment. His refusal to accept the reality of the situation and his insistence on pushing a false narrative only serve to further divide an already polarized political landscape.
As Schiff continues to push his baseless claims, it is important for the American people to remain vigilant and demand accountability from their elected officials. The truth must prevail over political gamesmanship, and Schiff’s mental state must be called into question if he continues to perpetuate falsehoods for his own agenda.
