Hmmm, and yet Obama did NOTHING about it. Odd don't you think? No votes were changed, however, damaging information was leaked. From the Hill,
But to insinuate — as the Obama administration is doing — that Russian hacking might have tipped the election for Trump, is laughable.
The Democratic emails allegedly hacked and leaked by the Russians were a footnote to the appalling and non-Russian saga of candidate Hillary Clinton’s choice to conduct State Department business for four years over a hacker-friendly home server, and then try to wipe the records.
Nor does it appear there were any Russians involved in the mortifying coda in which some of Clinton’s State Department email traffic turned up on the computer of Anthony Weiner, the since-estranged husband of Clinton’s close aide, Huma Abedin.
Presumably with no help from Russia, those Clinton emails turned up in the course of an FBI investigation into Wiener’s alleged online sexting with an under-age girl.
And so Russia engaged in the same political attacks that every country does. SO WHAT? We do that to other countries all the time, both discretely and blatantly. Obama sure did to Israel I don't remember hearing a peep about interfering with an ALLIE'S election.
The State Department paid hundreds of thousands of dollars in taxpayers grants to an Israeli group that used the money to build a campaign to oust Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in last year’s Israeli parliamentary elections, a congressional investigation concluded Tuesday.
Some $350,000 was sent to OneVoice, ostensibly to support the group’s efforts to back Israeli-Palestinian peace settlement negotiations. But OneVoice used the money to build a voter database, train activists and hire a political consulting firm with ties to President Obama’s campaign — all of which set the stage for an anti-Netanyahu campaign, the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations said in a bipartisan staff report.
And riddle me this O progressive espouser of conspiracy...if Obama did the following and you said nothing, why are you endlessly ranting about trump?
Just connect the dots, from Obama’s 2009 fawning “reset” with Putin, to his 2012 confidential promise, caught on an open microphone, of post-reelection flexibility, to his 2013 handover of his “red line” in Syria to the ministrations of Putin.
Then came Obama’s 2014 de facto acceptance of Russia’s annexation of Ukraine’s Crimea, and Obama’s de facto deference right up to the present date of Russia’s increasingly bold reach back into the Middle East, including air strikes in Syria.
I could make a FAR stronger case for Obama collusion with Putin than Trump. Not that I would, he was more likely just inept.
No, I think you need to seriously do some self reflecting on what you are projecting. From where I sit, itbears no logic or consistency.
