They attempted to influence the opinion of a candidate. They didn't change hack or rig the election, nor change a single vote.

No redo.

There is always the joke about 6d intergalactic chess. But, if Trump has bombed Syria inciting Russian outrage after colluding with Russia to get elected, he is playing it and playing it well.

outside interference?


So, if this DNC mess had been exposed by real journalists/reporters instead of Russia operatives then you would have been okay by the exposers?

What exact proof do you have that one vote was changed by the "Russians?"




There were plenty of references from the Trump campaign throughout the election to shite the Russians were putting out...IF THE HACKING IS TRULY THEIR DOING<...it is utterly ridiculous to for y'all to now claim none of that made a difference in the election.

No, there shouldn't be anything done about the last election....other than constantly reminding everyone in this country that the president was hand picked by a nation who will use sarin gas on innocent and "beautiful" babies...and the GOP does have in its power the ability to keep that president from impacting the nation any further until such time as he can be replaced through the election process....otherwise any gains the GOP and the right makes is due to Russian interference in the election and the GOP will have to own that shite from now until the end of time.

It's mind blowing that you think "Russians" influenced people's votes. Was anyone undecided in the election at all in order for them to be influenced in such a way?

Regardless, every country on earth does this. Also, their are no (Zero) actual ramifications from this.

Everybody is missing his point. he is trolling the left. if they say we should have another election, he would ask since the MSM/Hillary/DNC colluded to make her(Hillary) their candidate, shouldn't they have a redo of the Democratic primary.

Any mention of a redo qualifies the speaker as an idiot. Or in this case as an admitted troll and this thread should be deleted. It's impossible to have any real discussion on here because of bullshite like this

it was public sentiment towards Hilldawg due to leaked emails etc


why would Hillaries leaked emails change public sentiment? Were said emails about women's rights and how to correct global warming?

You do realize that we have meddled in other countries elections for years, right?

Since when did the Democrats care about babies?

Would you be advocating this if Hillary had been elected? Wasn't the Democratic primary influenced by the DNC and Hillary?

Actually, no. It would be due to Trump and the GOP....unless you are arguing the Russians are still pulling strings?

Do you really think that foreign governments do not influence our policies, today? The Clintons have taken millions from foreign governments over the years. they have sold access to corporations. To think legislation is not influenced by any outside parties is naive.

Clinton was a deeply flawed candidate. She was arrogant enough to completely ignore the working class midwest. Not mention Trump outworked her.

It was not the votes at the booths, it was public sentiment towards Hilldawg due to leaked emails etc. that cost her votes at the booth. Trump should have turned the narrative back to the MSM/DNC meddling to get HRC elected.

Your candidate was terrible. Russian "attempts" were just what all countries do all the time. The media, party organizations and, yes, voter rolls (dead, multiple, etc.) were ALL rigged in Hillary's favor...


...and she still lost. How about DEM apples?

I don't know if Russia was involved or not my friend....I kind of doubt it....BUT it is intellectually dishonest to say categorically that it did or didn't effect votes one way or the other. That is like me saying water is wet and you saying water is wet and us arguing for years about what wet means.

We both agree that Trump won the election in the manner in which we conduct elections. It doesn't matter HOW voters reached the conclusion they reached....it only matters that they did. What does matter greatly is the fact that this president MAY...I am not saying he has....but MAY have receieved the benefit of Russia meddling in the election on his behalf...IF there is strong enough evidence of that AND the GOP supports this president and goes along with his agenda and nominates him again in 4 years then the GOP will have that as part of their parties history from now on. I don't know what that means or what the effect will be but that is what is at stake....the GOP will be known from now on as a political party which benefits from Russian meddling in elections.

I don't think it matters a tinkers damn to the base of the party....just like the base of the democratic party their guy can do nothing that is wrong...but it could certainly have an impact on moderates and moderates are where you win elections....

I don't think any amount of interference was going to change the result.

We have a process and we have gone through that process.
