....by planting seeds of uncertainty into our election process, then wouldn't that mean, that by the Left's response, the Left is his Useful Idiots?

His actions may have been directed at the Dem Party, but ultimately, it was directed at the country as a whole. If it turns out to be true that the Russians did this, the useful idiots are the Americans who are letting Putin off the hook. As long as Putin's actions result in division or dissention, he is winning.

OP is a moron.

That said - I am an actual leftist, not a Democrat, and it is pretty obvious even to me that all of this Putin shite is a bunch of garbage. They have provided zero proof of any hacking. Podesta got fooled by what amounts to a Nigerian Prince e-mail. No one, not even the Clinton camp, is questioning the veracity of the e-mails that Wikileaks put out. It is irrelevant if the Russians helped with the leaks, and the Democrats are basically saying "It's not fair that they exposed us for what we are!"

Spot on!

Are you sure you're a leftists? You sound much too coherent, rational and intelligent to be a leftist.

You most likely don't know what a leftist is. The left has been hijacked by social justice warriors and corporate shills. I have no love for Trump, but at least he is a break from the establishment Democrats/Republican cabal.

Ask Johnnyboy McCain.

His protestation over Russia befouling "our Democracy's most sacred act, a free and fair election" makes me wonder what he is concerned will WikiLeak out about him.

Wouldn't you say he has strengthened our democratic resolve by exposing anti-democratic corruption?

So many of you are missing the point it's sad.

Nobody is saying Trump shouldn't still be president. Nobody is asking for an election do-over. Nobody is suggesting Russia's efforts should disqualify the results.

They are saying we should ensure this doesn't happen again. That's it. And since Trump can't stand the idea that Russia would prefer to face-off against him than HRC, he's ignoring it. He'd rather protect his pitiful ego than protect the country (maybe even himself) from future attacks. He is actually suggesting the entire organizations of the CIA and FBI are out to get him. This is so delusional I feel sorry for him and his supporters.

All people are saying is let's make sure it doesn't happen next time. But he can't even do that.
