I posted 2 other links that said the same basic thing Biden said about McConnell.

I guess your finger was too tired of reading for you to read the other two.

Has the MSM ask McConnell if he did that?

After all, it was back in September, 2016 when the meeting supposedly happened and the articles you posted about it came out in December, 2016 and on January 23, 2016.

Yeah, but did they ask McConnell if it was true?

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.







He never once in 8 years gave a shite about backlash from his partisan BS.

I don't know if they asked McConnell if it was true at the time it was reported.

What I do know is that Biden was speaking at an event hosted by the Council on Foreign Relations, and that the story of what Biden said was widely reported, and McConnell has not commented on it.

(Which of course doesn't mean it's true. But McConnell also didn't comment on the other stories reporting on this at around the time it happened, either. So you be your judge, and I'll be mine).

What about any time after it was reported?

Since McConnell didn't comment on it then they should have gone out of their way and asked him if the meeting happened and if what happened during the meeting is what was described as happening.

After all, the MSM has no problem asking President Trump and the rest of the Republicans about something that supposedly happened when they want to.

Of course.

You are a joke. So to you that means it is absolutely false.

Two sources reported on it when it happened and Biden said the same thing at widely covered national conference last month and McConnell has not responded to any of that.

You know that could mean that he doesn't want to bring it back up.

Like I said. You be your judge, and I'l be mine.

How about you don't respond to my posts anymore. You're just a zero and a waste of my time.

Have a continued miserable life.

he wanted to. He approached McConnell about them issuing a joint statement and McConnell REFUSED> Obama was hesitant to announce this by himself as he was afraid it would look too partisan. But you already knew that if you keep up with politics.

Congrats on getting your upvotes from the Trumpkins though.

McConnell has refused to comment on the reports about the CIA conclusions on Russia’s meddling in the election. McConnell’s office told BuzzFeed News that it “would not violate federal law by providing classified information.”

They hacked the DNC? Well why didn’t you tell me. And you can prove that, right?

Dude, whoever did it “phished” the DNC and Podesta. And they were dumb enough to let them. And in the end, all it did was reveal what we already knew. That the DNC is a criminal organization that fixed the Democratic primary for HRC. The situation was so bad that DWS had to resign. And here you are spouting stupidity because of “Muh, Russians.”

Like I've been saying, since when has Obama let anything McConnell or any Republican wants ever stop him from doing something he personally thinks is the right thing to do?
