Right! How are we supposed to take their wolf whistles serious that Russia is trying to undermine faith in our democracy when they have been pushing that same narrative since their boss lost the election.
According to their own logic we need to reject CNN and their commie plot.
This is our own Intel, I do not dissmiss the United Chiefs of U.S. INTEL, on what Russia is doing.

If that is the case then go ahead and declare war on Russia since it is pretty clear this mess wont ever stop.
All roads lead to an eventual major conflict.

If people in this country are stupid enough to let a Facebook or Twitter post be the deciding factor in who they vote for, I submit that we have much, MUCH bigger problems in this country than Russia trying to "influence" an election.
The fact that we're still (as a population) on Step 1 of this roadmap is pretty clear indication that Russian influence vis-a-vis news and social media has garnered enough 'doubt' in both the political and intelligence systems in the US that there are many who now believe Russian controlled spokespeople over our own.
Also please tell me how in 1990 the Russians were doing this......Please show me what you are saying is true.
The U.S. also attempted to sway Russian elections. In 1996, with the presidency of Boris Yeltsin and the Russian economy flailing, President Clinton endorsed a $10.2-billion loan from the International Monetary Fund linked to privatization, trade liberalization and other measures that would move Russia toward a capitalist economy.

Bob Mueller was given a staff of 200 investigators and millions of dollars a month to look into how Russia meddled in the 2016 election, and issue a report on how to prevent the same thing from happening in 2018 and 2020. His team has been investigating for almost a year now.
WHERE IS HIS REPORT? Time is short!

We all know the only reason trump is not backing this is because he is so afraid they will declare his presidency illegitimate.
I think it is already since his goal was only to gain interest in a new reality show and never to actually win. He stole an election from legitimate republican candidates and someone should really think about suing him for fraud.
