"so how did your Russian collusion go?"

I don't recall ever colluding with Russia.

But if you're referring to the Special Counsel investigation (2017–2019), it seems to have gone quite well.

$48 million recovered from unpaid taxes and illegal payments. The net result was actually a profit for the US taxpayers.

Dozens of ongoing investigations originally handled by the Special Counsel's office were forwarded to district and state prosecutors, otherDepartment of Justice(DoJ) branches, and other federal agencies.^[165]The following (in alphabetical order) were indicted during the Mueller investigation:
13 Russians implicated in election interference: Mueller's team indicted thirteen Russian citizens, theInternet Research Agency(IRA),Concord Management and Consultingand Concord Catering with conducting social media campaigns about the U.S. elections.^[166]Twelve of the Russian defendants, who were alleged to be members of the RussianGRU cyber espionagegroup known asFancy Bear, were charged in June 2018 withhacking and leaking DNC emails.^[167]
Maria Butina, who had claimed to be a Russian gun activist, was investigated by the Special Counsel investigators and then prosecuted by theNational Security Law Unit. She was imprisoned forespionageafter entering a guilty plea.^[170]^[171]
Michael Cohen, Trump's personal lawyer, pled guilty to makinghush paymentstoStormy DanielsandKaren McDougalin violation ofcampaign finance laws, and was convicted for several unrelated counts of bank and tax fraud.^[172]^[173]
Lieutenant GeneralMichael Flynn, who had been appointed asNational Security Advisorby the incoming Trump administration, was dismissed from his position and later pled guilty tomaking false statementsto FBI investigators about his conversations with Russian ambassadorSergey Kislyakduring the presidential transition.^[174]^[175]

Paul Manafort, former Trump campaign chairman wasfound guiltyon eight felony counts oftax evasionandbank fraud,^[178]pursuant to his earlier lobbying activities for theParty of Regionsof former Ukrainian presidentViktor Yanukovich.^[179]^[180]He later pled guilty toconspiracy to defraudand obstruction of justice;^[181]^[182]in total, he was sentenced to over seven years in jail^[183]in February 2018.
George Papadopoulos, Trump campaign adviser, was convicted for making false statements to the FBI.^[184]
Roger Stone, a longtime Trump advisor who had met with a Russian person offering to sell derogatory financial information aboutHillary Clinton,^[185]was indicted on seven charges of lying to Congress and witness tampering. He pled not guilty.^[186]The jury subsequently found him guilty on all seven counts.^[187]

Thanks for the opportunity to refresh your memory.

Have a good one!

So process crimes and nothing on Trump colluding with Russia. In the meantime it looks like the collusion was cooked up by Clinton cronies and assisted by FBI. Look up Durham Report, Danchenko, Steele dossier. They are going to come back and bite the Dems big time.

DYOR.
