Russia didn't have to hack the votes, they hacked right-wingers minds instead with a constant stream of bullsh#t fake news.
It's likely that Russia has in the past, hacked us. It's also likely that China has hacked us. It's also likely that many other nations have done this. And it's also very likely that we have done this or worse to other nations. So to pretend that it's some horrible act that warrants aggression is stupid.

I kind of agree with you but ill say not the way you assume. Russians made sure facts came to light at the most inopportune times. They didnt lie and they didnt put out fake news. This is why it worked actually had they put out fake news that could easily be dismissed they would have had no effect.
