So what? Democrats went back to their home districts and talked to their voters. Came back and complained voters could not really care about it anymore. If there is one thing every democratic politician stuck to talking points, it was Mueller report and Russian collusion. Wait until the report comes out and suggests the democrats might have been part of the problem......

After reading the entire article linked in the OP, I found no evidence to support the thread title.

After reading the entire article linked in the OP, I found no evidence to support the thread title. You read it from one perspective, I readit from another. from the article.... LEESBURG, Va. — House Democrats pushing for the release of special counsel Robert Mueller's report on Russian election interference say they are not hearing much interest on the subject from their constituents back home. A redacted version of Mueller's report is expected within days. In a letter on March 24 summarizing Mueller's findings, U.S. Attorney General William Barr said the special counsel had not found a conspiracy involving President Donald Trump's campaign and the Russian government. The special counsel also did not make a determination about whether Trump's actions during the investigation amounted to obstruction. Despite the Washington intrigue over the Mueller report, many Democrats say they're not hearing much about it at town halls or in the grocery store aisles when they return to their districts. Rep. Dale Kildee, D-Mich., said he usually runs into someone who brings up the subject every day. But "the vast majority of what I hear is about kitchen-table issues," Kildee said. "People just talk about their own situation."

You're missing the main point of the article. The Democrats are basically announcing that they are going back to campaigning on issues.

We already knew that Russia interfered. And that numerous contacts were made to Russians by those either in DT's campaign or closely related to it or him. Since we still don't have the actual wording of the report...there isn't much to holler or crow about either way.
Health care is more important than DT! Infrastructure is more important than DT. Prescription prices are more important than DT. Education & higher education costs are more important than DT. He will soon be gone and everything else will still be here either fixed or needing fixed.

Talking more about what nefarious business DT is conducting to bring about his own enrichment and hoodwinking of his supporters will not help the country because the country already knows that his base will dismiss whatever findings there are. So why bother? There are problems that people face everyday that need solving. Talking more about collusion and Russian interference won’t turn DT and his acolytes into honest people

"People just talk about their own situation." You're interpreting that to mean the voters don't care that Trump might have obstructed justice because they don't think it's important.
I think the voters have already made up their minds on obstruction. 60% of the voters know obstruction took place and Barr is covering for Trump, while 40% continue to believe Trump didn't do anything wrong. They're ready to move on to things that are important in their lives.
If the full Mueller report ever comes out (and eventually, an in-redacted version will surface, but probably not until Trump leaves office) it would be interesting to see what the voters think. The histories written about this time period in our democracy will be grim.
