How is what the Russians did different from what the MSM did?

The MSM went full bore against Trump 24/7 during the campaign. There was not even the pretense of objectivity.

Doesn't it basically come down to two entities, both of which tried to influence the US election?

The difference is that there is actual evidence the MSM did something.

Yeah, but the MSM aren't all barely-disguised Communists.
Wait.

Someone illegally obtained Trump's 1995 tax return and the NYT used it to smear him.

The hot mic recording of Trump was illegally obtained according to California law and NBC intentionally held it for months so it could be used to influence the election in HRCs favor.

Obama DHS staffers were caught 10 times trying to hack into the Georgia Dept of state election system. Obviously illegal.

Clinton campaign contractors were caught on video bragging about bussing in illegals to vote in order to assist HRC in the general election. This is a violation of federal law.

These aren't foreign entities. These are our countrymen. Yet we are talking about WHO may have hacked the DNC and how it helped Trump. No mention of what was in the emails. Nevermind she dominated the polls months after the hacks were released. Nevermind she was plagued with a lifetime of scandal, a multi pronged fbi investigation, and failing health.

The media and dems are fixated on Russia because they are failed narcissists in need of an excuse for themselves.

Donna Brazile did more to try to swing the election by herself by passing questions to Hillary than the "Russians" did.

This whole faux angst on the part of the Democrats reminds me of the final scene in A Few Good Men.

"We did nothing wrong!"

They have no self awareness. They are (quite frankly) too far gone.

You just raised a point that deserves not only it's own thread but it really deserves its own DAY where we discuss nothing else.

Why is it OK for a foreign Leftist to influence our domestic politics? Why have we had nothing but silent consent from our US Govt when it comes to Soros's influence on our domestic politics?

IMHO, the GOP has excused Soros's work for too long. Foreign Leftists controlling our domestic politics is something we must stop.

Don't forget about CNBC's John Harwood, debate moderator, secretly passing along information to the Clinton campaign.

Or the CNN reporter who was caught on video coaching the members of a panel of “average Americans,” feeding them lines about how trustworthy Hillary Clinton was. The panel of “average Americans” then dutifully repeated verbatim what they had been coached to say.
