Ah, Russia.
A retrospective of all those things that the House was supposed to look into, and Mueller uncover.
Two years on, and that amounted to a fart in the wind.

I understand the concern, as this sort of subversion is a classic Russian ploy. But if you look at it in total, what it looks like is that all these business operations that emerged after the breakup of the USSR were looking for places to invest, and Trump was one of them. The deals in and of themselves were perfectly legal. To prove some wrongdoing, you'd have to tie this investment to some kind of money laundering, AND prove Trump had personal knowledge that he was laundering money for mafia interests.
They didn't prove squat in regard to any of that. Hence the fizzle on any of this being a thing when Impeachment Articles were produced by the House.

Like many of these fairytales, it is built on false information perpetuated by Democrats and their partners.

For instance, Ex-British spy Christopher Steele, who compiled the infamous Trump dossier using Russian sources, told a British court that accusations about Trump and a Russian bank were provided by a DNC member and a Fusion GPS attorney

"DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz’s report shows Steele also pushed the now-debunked claim that Alfa Bank was a secret conduit between Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort and the Kremlin during an early October meeting with State Department figures Jonathan Winer and Kathleen Kavalec. Steele also told DOJ official Bruce Ohr in late September the Alfa Bank server was a link to the Trump campaign and that the Russia-American organization belonging to “Person 1” used the Alfa Bank server two weeks prior."

The British judge reached other conclusions in his 57-page ruling.
“Mr. Steele’s evidence is that he now believes the Ultimate Client was the Democratic National Committee,” Justice Warby said. “[Steele’s lawyer] Mr. Millar submits that the Ultimate Client was the Clinton election campaign, ‘Hillary for America.’ This is in line with the FBI Note of 5 July 2016, which records Mr. Steele telling the FBI that Orbis had been instructed by Mr. Simpson of Fusion and ‘Democratic Party Associates’ but that ‘the ultimate client were (sic) the leadership of the Clinton presidential campaign.’ The FBI Note also indicates that Mr. Steele had been told by that stage that Mrs. Clinton herself was aware of what Orbis had been commissioned to do.”
