1. I have no idea what you are trying to say. "Most reporters agreed Hillary won"? Not on my planet.

2. Hillary cheated by having the debate questions, provided by Donna Brazil who got them from CNN somehow. Seriously? You ask "what cheating?" WTH.....

3. I don't disagree, of course the GOP would be angry. I frankly don't care however if the dems or repubs are mad over having their cheating exposed.

"Interfered" with the election, "influenced" the election, "Hacked" the election all refers to Russia hacking for the purpose of installing the candidate of its choice.

Gee, the pollsters shouldda consulted Putin.
At the time of the alleged "hack," nobody expected Trump to be the nominee.

As I said, since all the debates made little difference, Donna Brazil revealing the questions before wasn't a decisive factor, although it clearly was wrong doing.
I don't think we should accept any foreign power to "reveal" any party or candidate emails or strategy. That includes the republicans and democrats in congress and senate. It is an internal matter. Why should Putin (or China) impact the US elections?
(I also don't understand this guys Assange - as a non US citizen, what's does he want?)

That's not clear.

"Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas, told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer, “It’s important to note, Wolf, that they have not only hacked into the DNC but also into the RNC….the Russians have basically hacked into both parties at the national level, and that gives us all concern about what their motivations are.” Several days later, McCaul said that he misspoke." Did Russia Hack the RNC Too? Here

CNN is clueless. Time and time again, the RNC was not hacked and CNN ignores this fact while they sell their commercials to unsuspected viewers.

This article puts the electoral college in perspective:

Hillary Clinton supporters need to quit whining about the Electoral College - MarketWatch
I have no idea what my comment has to do with the electoral college. My guess is that you are using it as a segue to avoid talking about the subject which was Michael McCaul's statement to CNN
