That's convenient

We are allowed to go roughshod all over the world but it's ok because it's our role.

I don't think what Russian's were doing in social media and on the Internet is any different than what the MSM does on a daily basis, and double down during election cycles. Boths sides, right and left are so full of propaganda during elections. The internet makes it exponentially worse since there is no oversight on what people put out on the internet.

I reconcile by going to the democrat playbook. I answer a question with a question. How do you reconcile that Barrack Obama openly meddled in the Isreali elections?




Or the Democrat primary?

Do you REALLY believe that 2016 was the first time Russia "meddled" in our elections?

If you're not a complete f*cking moron and answered "No" to the previous question, who do you think they "helped" before 2016?

If you are not a complete f*cking moron and answered "the DemocRATS" to the previous question, then why do you think it's such a big f*cking deal all of a sudden?

And, why didn't Odumbf*ck give a flying f*ck when he was told that Russia was meddling in September 2016?

Finally, out of all the nations in the world, which one do you believe "meddles" in the most foreign elections?


Should BillyJeff have been arrested for "meddling" in Russian elections?

They don't care. They're probably happy the Communists are targeting the midterms now.

i have said this many times before, i am not aware of anyone in the intelligence community as going on record saying that there was even one single vote changed because of russian interference. that's huge because it completely changes the game for prosecutors against trump.


You are short a bit here.

The IC, both the Senate and House Committees reports, all state: not one single vote was changed.

The only valid suspicions of votes being changed is in backrooms with purely human interference.

How does the left reconcile "muh Russia" after an almost 2 year independent council investigation has turned up ZERO evidence that Trump had any collusion with Russian interference yet the leftist media outlets, political leadership, and their lemmings continue to swear there is a connection? And after the investigation has likewise found ZERO evidence that Russian interference had any affect whatsoever on the election's outcome.

The irony of this post is so thick it drips like molasses.

I'd have to take it seriously in order to reconcile anything.

I'll just continue to go with the words of the investigators and prosecutors from DoJ who have repeatedly stated that the President had nada to do with any of the shenanigans

Russia had no impact on manipulating the voting machines or the electoral college. Hillary lost fair and square in an election that was rigged in her favor to win.

Noam Chomsky

First of all, if you’re interested in foreign interference in our elections, whatever the Russians may have done barely counts or weighs in the balance as compared with what another state does, openly, brazenly and with enormous support.

Duh, that's an ways one. He thought Hillary had it in the bag and so wasn't really that concerned about Russian "interference" until it wasn't her turn any more.

If you don't understand the difference between meddling and interfering, it can't be explained to you.

The American people owe Putin a big fat THANK YOU for exposing the depth of the corruption and depravity of the DNC and the Democratic lawmakers.

No one is saying Russia didn’t meddle like it as for decades. What we do dispute is how Democrats have created a narrative that it swung the election and that the Trump Campaign actively worked with them to do it. How can you even put this forth when the only proof points to the only party working with foreign nationals (and potentially agencies) was the DNC & HRC doing so to create the Russian Colllusion narrative?

1. Foreign govts meddle in elections. Russia is a foreign govt.

2. Trump views that having a relationship with Putin is the best way to address the election issues without starting a war. The behind the scenes stuff will piss Putin off, but at least Trump and he can talk through it.

How do I reconcile it? The diplomacy of the past is over, Obama was right about that part. There is no reason that our President not have an intimate relationship with all world leaders. It is the easiest way to influence positive change.

Putin isnt as evil as Kim, and it seems NK is coming around. The optics of the Kim Trump meeting were odd, but the ends appears to justify it.

We do care. But we can also see that Russia can meddle and NOT collude with any candidate.

Just this morning CNN was baffled by the Trump administration saying that Russia definitely meddled in the 2016 election and Trump saying the investigation is a hoax.

The CNN guys said that Trump was disagreeing with his own team! They are so filled with hate they cant even report anything accurately.
