No, the seriousness is the seriousness of the accusations ALONG with existing credible evidence. I didn't jump on the birther band wagon because, though it was a very serious accusation, there was no evidence, much like I am not on the 3 million illegal voters in California band wagon, despite the seriousness of the accusation, because there was/is no evidence. Here we have evidence of frequent communication between Trump campaign staff and Russian spies, we have evidence that Russian spies were responsible for the hack's into DNC email servers and we have evidence of inappropriate conversations between Trump admin staff and the Russian embassy following the elections. All that adds up to concern regarding some serious accusations and seems worthy of further investigation. I am not calling for capitol punishment just yet, I am calling for a serious investigation.
