No, the investigation is real, and laws have been broken. Its pretty clear that Mueller has enough to prosecute Manafort, Kushner and Flynn already. He just wont find the smoking gun on Trump himself that so many wanted him to.

I wonder if the Trump voters who were fed up with Washington insiders bending the rules and profiting off their positions will be OK with him pardoning these career lobbyists after they got caught lying about their Russian businesses? 

Trump ran a successful campaign as the outsider, but now he's become the status quo...
