re: Why didn't Obama tell us Russia was trying to influence the 2016 presidential election?

If you actually think that some tech VP has better insight than the CIA into the intentions of the Russian government then you’re a dipshit

Why didn't Barack the Benevolent warn us of this?

Barack the Great should have warned the American people. They tried to put out a bipartisan statement on Russian interference before the election but McConnell wouldn't sign onto it. At that point Obama should've addressed it himself but he didn't. Dropped the ball on that one - Russia was committing felonies trying to affect the election and spread propaganda and most people were unaware.

Do you ever take responsibility for anything the Left fails to do?

Obama wanted to release information on the Russian involvement in the 2016 campaign but he hesitated because he was afraid it would backlash as a partisan effort to support Hillary.
In September 2016 Obama wanted to issue a joint bipartisan statement about the Russian involvement but McConnell wouldn't sign it because he said he questioned the underlying intelligence.
When he was asked by Buzzfeed why he wouldn't sign it McConnell’s office it “would not violate federal law by providing classified information.”

Are you asking me to take responsibility for Obama not warning the American people? Are you under the impression that I worked in the Obama administration?
I'll certainly criticize him for that decision - he made the wrong choice not warning America about the crimes being committed by Russians.

Well the hacking of the DNC and Podesta's emails involve several felonies each. The recent indictments allege violations of election laws and bank and wire fraud.
And that's just what's public.
ETA: pretty sure identity theft has been alleged as well.

And still Barack hates his country so much he didn't tell us.
Posted on 2/18/18 at 4:19 pm to Jbird
I can't tell if posters on this board get more emotional over Obama or Hillary. There are probably posters here that think that Obama hates football and God and cheeseburgers and beer because those are things that they love

Gee and I was just waiting for your link that will never arrive.

Barack Obama will be remembered as one of the greatest Presidents of all time. His stimulus plan stopped a second great depression, he helped millions get healthcare, and he killed the greatest terrorist of all time.
Your gay, bi-racial grandchildren will have posters of him on their wall.

You want me to link to me wondering who you get more butthurt over or to your grandchildren loving Obama?
Because you're not really making sense asking for a link

When?
This is what Biden has said publicly. It's not hard to Google things.

Nothing you quoted supports the assertion that RT was anti-Trump
That's correct but I also mentioned that YouTube has a link to RT which contains 255 official pro-Hillary Clinton campaign videos.
RT wouldn't do that if they were pro-Trump.

Here's the LINK.
Scroll down 45 videos and it gives a link to Hillary's official website with 255 official pro-Hillary videos.

Did they make pro-Trump videos too?
Of course they did but that was because they were trying to create discord among American voters not because they supported Trump.

Simply making a video doesn’t mean much if you don’t do anything with it.
It's not just one video.
It's a link to Hillary's official website with 255 official pro-Hillary videos.
It's impossible to know how many of the 85,000,000 Americans RT claims watches RT used the link to Hillary's official website that was provided by RT.

Dude, that's a link to Hillary's website from Youtube. You believe that RT was pushing pro-Clinton videos because there's a link from Youtube to her campaign site??????
Are you an elderly person that doesn't know how the internet works? That's not even a link from RT to her site.
