I don't agree with your logic.    The issue is that they may have tampered with the outcome of an American election.  If they did that in cooperation with an American candidate, that threatens the legal foundation of our nation.      This is not a threat of nuclear war Out, it's about a foundational attack on the law of the nation.    It's not going to cause a nuclear war.  If Russia is exposed the worst thing that happens to them is embarrassment.  We are no angels as using technology and long established means of espionage an influence foreign elections.

The cover up is again going to be worse than the crime, although either/neither is possible.     Looks like a lot of smoke with not much fire so far, but who knows what more looking may turn up.     My guess is that it's not so much criminal as it is commercial.   Looks like profiteering from his political position to me.     He's made it clear that Trump Inc will be of high priority in the nations financial decisions.
