You missed the first point: There's no evidence of collusion. There's no evidence of hacking the things that caused damage to Hilary.
You have Flynn fucking up and not sharing everything he should have.
Beyond that, they are inundating people with smoke from a state/press smoke machine and playing to the biases of the public which they largely create. I would recommend watching the long interview Hannity did with Assange back in January.
The only reason people think Russia tried to elect Trump is due to this propaganda game. "There's nothing egregious.." No, there's evidence of that. That's the point. The leaks are what damaged them. They hint at leaks being Russian hacks, but never state fully so with evidence. They talk about Russian hacking, which goes on back and forth by all major states. They talk about the second thing to conflate it with the first thing. State reps interested in doing this hand off anon sources with unverified info to friendly press. Everyday it's like this. Ratcheting a country up to either burn Trump down or go to war with Russia. It's yellow journalism.
All this paranoid skepticism to the point of doubting the Democratic hacks Russian origins might resonate if Russia had not been indicted of doing these very same things in many countries already: US, UK, Netherlands, Bulgaria, Austria, Germany, France. All fitting similar patterns of behavior and targeting.
It's not bias, it's pinning the hypothesis on the actor where the evidence points.
You have the intelligence and law enforcement of multiple countries speaking to Russian actions that mirror what America experienced. You have our own intelligence community pointing the finger at Russia as the source for the hacks, after looking into the matter and naming the avenues and roots in which the attacks took form.
All under the umbrella of the stated Russian geopolitical strategy of trying to undermine western alliances so they can expand their geopolitical footprint for a domestically suffering autocrat who has an unhealthy nostalgia hard-on for the Soviet era. Who has propogandized his population to view his success based on outward projections of power as opposed to internal economic metrics that are abysmal right now and made worse by sanctions Russia also desperately wants lifted(another pattern in the targets). Coupled with a deflectionary domestic strategy built around legitimizing his autocracy to his people by attempting to project a narrative of total corruption and illegitimacy in Democratic nations worse then his own(another focus present in the behavior of the hacks and how Russia state media spins them).
You have evidence, you have motive, you have stated intents, you have observable patterns and strategy, and you have few, if any, viable alternative theories.
...But I guess it could have been Seth Rich.
