Take the Trump portion out of it for a minute. I'm not saying I fault them because world powers have been dicking with other countries elections since elections were a thing, but we have to be better against Russia meddling this election cycle.

Unfortunately, there are too many stupid people that will forward an e-mail or share a post on facebook without thinking about it beyond the visceral reaction to share! share! share! to realize what they are sharing isn't based in the land of reality.

You mean like this post office stupidity? That kind of share! share! share! without realizing they're being played the fool yet again?

Oh, and of course the fact that we meddle in others elections every. single. day.

Meddling in elections is playing nice. We wrote the book on "grass roots coups"

Manaforte colluding with Russian intelligence... nothing to see here.

Trump lied under oath in his written answers to Mueller...

Just stop.. You're making a German spectacle of yourself.

I have the same stance about this as nuclear weapons...


as long as we are interfering with elections (which we are, guaranteed) then we have no leg to stand on....

as long as we have nuclear weapons, what right do we have to tell other countries what they are not allowed to have...

You would think after all this time that they would realized they were being played for the fool. But no! They are running with it like its the gospel.

"significant connections to the Kremlin" ... Manafort, Trump Jr., Kushner...

FIFY.

The chairman of President Donald Trump's 2016 election campaign secretly shared campaign information with a Russian intelligence officer, posing a "grave" espionage threat to the United States, a US Senate report said

"On numerous occasions, Manafort sought to secretly share internal campaign information with Kilimnik," including polling and strategy details, it said.

Sounds serious. So which of those charges did team taint bring against Manafort in a court of law?

Funny, why didn't Muler and his band of merry henchmen find any of this stuff sitting in plain sight?

That fawned upon "bipartisan" senate investigation ended up being a bigger laugh-fest than even the howler that the House was. Frankenlurch is the dumbest improbable wealthy guy out there. Bought in early on some cell tower licenses. Lucky hit. Still dumb.

Democrats are seditious bastards and got exposed. The rationalization continues after the beatdown.

Please keep going.

Kinda surprised the Republicans let this come.out.

There's nothing illegal about sharing campaign internal data and strategy with anyone you please.

RUSSIA! RUSSIA! RUSSIA!

Anyone thinking this report is good for the president or exonerates him and his campaign team is just an idiot.

And big surprise, the sycophants in the GOP senate are still covering and cowering to the orange menace. Sad.

Quote:Here are some of the committee’s own findings about Trump campaign engagement with the Russian electoral interference—findings subscribed to by each and every one of the senators who protests that they did not find “collusion”:

"The Committee found that Manafort’s presence on the Campaign and proximity to Trump created opportunities for Russian intelligence services to exert influence over, and acquire confidential information on, the Trump Campaign. Taken as a whole, Manafort’s high-level access and willingness to share information with individuals closely affiliated with the Russian intelligence services . . . represented a grave counterintelligence threat.”

"While [Russian military intelligence] and WikiLeaks were releasing hacked documents, the Trump Campaign sought to maximize the impact of those leaks to aid Trump’s electoral prospects. Staff on the Trump Campaign sought advance notice about WikiLeaks releases, created messaging strategies to promote and share the materials in anticipation of and following their release, and encouraged further leaks. The Trump Campaign publicly undermined the attribution of the hack-and-leak campaign to Russia and was indifferent to whether it and WikiLeaks were furthering a Russian election interference effort.”

“Trump and senior Campaign officials sought to obtain advance information about WikiLeaks’s planned releases through Roger Stone.”

“The Committee further found that Papadopoulos’s efforts introduced him to several individuals that raise counterintelligence concerns, due to their associations with individuals from hostile foreign governments, as well as actions these individuals undertook. The Committee assesses that Papadopoulos was not a witting cooptee of the Russian intelligence services, but nonetheless presented a prime intelligence target and potential vector for malign Russian influence.”

It goes on. And on. And on.

Republican Senators Misrepresent Their Own Russia Report

And we get it...no collusion was prosecuted...mostly because there's just no criminal statute to prosecute it under. But keep on pretending that everything that happened was just fine, when we all know that you would be screaming bloody murder if this was perpetrated by democrats, so just stop embarrassing yourselves and be honest for once.

Well if you can't think enough for yourself that you're influenced by Russian "meddling", then you're a derned idiot.
