The most interesting event in a timeline of events of this whole story that I was not aware of previously was this...
Dec. 26: Oleg Erovinkin, a former KGB official who was suspected assisting a former British spy in compiling a dossier alleging Trump ties to Russia, is found dead in the back seat of his car in Moscow.
Kinda makes the dossier have unverifiable elements at this point... but not 'fake'.

We might assume a couple of things.
The current RNC charge is to 'free' Manafort and Papadopoulos.
They are the chief witnesses against Trump.
You must get evidence obtained against them thrown out.

If/when Mueller concludes, he is not likely to do more than drop all the intelligence on congress's lap. So it really is a matter of timing. Does it happen while it is controlled by the GOP or possibly when it is controlled by the DNC. So there is a sense of urgency by trump and RNC to make this go away very soon.
Or we are going to have a real fight trying to charge a sitting president. Much of that depends on the charges and if it affects the duty of the working president. most of which will likely be decided by the Supreme Court.
So it is more likely going to take public pressure to really get to the bottom of this.
That is if there is any backbone to know if and to what extent any foreign powers has influenced top officials of our government.
