Huh. Please, tell me where I stand. Evidently you know my position better than I do.
This should be good.

I'm not a Trump supporter, but wasn't the original claim that Trump was in on it? Also, what ever resulted from the DNC rigging the primary? Just to be clear, I can't stand Trump any more than I can stand Hillary.
Nothing will come of the DNC email issue in regards to the primary. The DNC is not a government entity and while we can consider what they did to be poor form, they are a private entity and can do what they want.
According to the report, the Russian effort included email hacks on the campaign of Trump’s Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton, and the Democratic National Committee. The agencies said information from those hacks was released to hurt the Democrats and boost Trump, but the report specified that it “did not make an assessment of the impact that Russian activities had on the outcome of the 2016 election.”

That's not true at all. First, many election laws govern political parties. Second, non state actors can be held as state actors; happens a lot.

So because I call Trump supporters Trumpettes, I'm not in the middle? Eh...nice try.
The Trumpettes are the ones that are # holsters for Trump. I made no bones about doing the same thing to the Obama supporters that thought he could do no wrong. And the Clinton supporters. It's not my fault the last two don't have names that are easily made into another word. And it certainly isn't my fault, nor does it make me any less of a centrist, that you're triggered so easily by words.
No, what makes me a centrist is that I'm not blinded by the right wing dogma, nor the left wing dogma, and I'm happy to call both sides on their shenanigans. All through Obama's administration I was labelled a right leaner, and now that Trump is in office suddenly I'm a left leaner? Nah man, just because I'm left of people like you doesn't mean I'm left leaning. I just don't substitute dogma for critical thinking. Whether that critical thinking puts me to the left of you or the right of you on a particular subject, it matters not.
Don't confuse my mockery of the hardcore wingnuts for anything other than that. I do it to the left just as easily as I do it to the right. You'll notice in my subsequent comment, I did the same thing to those who seem to think the WH statement somehow admits to something.
Toughen up snowflake. Trump would be embarrassed for you.

I just read the article, having thought I'd be getting some new information...
Either the OP can't read, got a bit over excited, or just read the headline and jumped in.
A quick scan of Kurthall's thread history will give you your answer, UKTruth.

Here we go....I have been saying it and saying it. Now all of you trump supporters are going to defend him once again and that is fine. Everything I have been saying for months is coming out in the open!!!! OH, of coarse they deny it had any affect on the election!! LOL!!!! You should be angry he told you it was FAKE NEWS for MONTHS AND MONTHS OVER AND OVER....It is REAL!!!!!! They of coarse are still goin to lie about just what was done, but it will come out!!!
www.yahoo.com...
*sigh* Trump never denied the russian hacks but his involvement and rightfully so. Your reading comprehension is seriously lacking but whatever floats your boat i guess. Btw nothing you said came remotely true. You still think there is a russian under your bed. I'm worried that one day you will snap.
Sigh. sorry man its YOUR reading and comprehension must not be that great...Right there in the Posted link are the TWEETS of trump saying it is FAKE NEWS....Its right there in his twitter feed as well....why don't you go RE-READ IT........

Seriously? You had to go the Obama route?
Obama treated LE like garbage, and I've said that more than once.
I've also said more than once that while I don't support Sessions' policies as an AG, it's nice to have a President in office that actually gives a # about folks with a badge.
Not one single time have I ever stated that Obama was preferable to Trump, so your attempt is a complete and total fail. I've said repeatedly that Trump was a superior choice in the election. I don't care for every last little thing that's been done or said since January, but I'd still rather have him in office than Clinton or Obama.
Try again. Put on your critical thinking hats and stop retreating to the same tired old crap that's not only irrelevant to what
I said here, but isn't even remotely relevant to anything I've said in the past.

That's not true at all. First, many election laws govern political parties. Second, non state actors can be held as state actors; happens a lot.
Please cite the specific laws that apply to this case.

I'm not an election lawyer. You claimed "[t]he DNC is not a government entity and while we can consider what they did to be poor form, they are a private entity and can do what they want." I provided two reasons your assertions were not truthful.
