Let's be honest here. The Democrats are a much greater threat to America than the Russians.
That's the kind of myopia that's symptomatic of the divide we have in this country. I remember going to a candidate's debate for the 2006 election and a right-winger said to me, "if the Democrats win, we're going to have another 9/11!" Well, the Democrats won and we didn't have another 9/11.
The reality is that Democrats believe in a private-enterprise economy, but one in which the wealthy are taxed to pay more so society can provide a social safety net for the less fortunate. This is morally superior to the cold capitalism that existed before the New Deal. This side believes, it is only proper for the affluent to help the less fortunate.
Republicans, like the Freedom Caucasians, believe that people have a right to keep what they earn, and that taxing them to support others, no matter how needy, amounts to theft. Many on the right really do see taxes and regulation as tyrannical impositions on their liberty.
Does Democrats wanting to help the needy count as a threat worse than the Russians? Please.
How have Democrats ever threatened my life in the 30 years I've been on this planet?
Well, all I can think of off the top of my head is the biggest Dem of them all and her failed campaign.
She believed in open borders. Increasing the refugee program by over 500% and dismantling the second amendment. In short she was for allowing in potential criminals, drugs and human traffickers while forcing us to take on tens of thousands of people from dangerous areas of the world that have vowed to kill us while taking away the rights of those who chose to protect themselves with a firearm.
What could go wrong? Not to mention the suspect donations she received from questionable people where human rights are a joke. What was going to happen when they came calling for their "Favors". ?
Of course we would barely be privy to any of this since the media which lives in the Lefts pocket would either down play it or not report it at all. Fox news would be the only ones talking about it and they would be discredited by simply saying "Fake News Kooks".
The Media is playing a HUGE roll in the development of this so called Russian scandal. They are making a mountain out of a mole hill in an attempt to discredit everything Trump.
It all depends on the SPIN, who you listen to for your news and what you believe. For some the Russia thing is worse than Watergate. For others they still want to see real evidence before blindly following the carrot on a stick.
It is crazy what is going on while Obama and his people barely get a nod for what they have done.
You really have to ask? These are the same people that voted trump into the Presidency.
From the other replies, I think you've already gotten your answer, and you probably think I'm "captain obvious".
Without sounding like a tin foil lunatic, it has to do with the nature of the people who voted for him, and why they did just that.
Two theories involve basically the same sort of brain washing. The Russians use a technique of disseminating information which creates chaos in the minds of likely voters and subconsciously imparts the desire of the less educated to vote and support a guy who makes all sorts of promises but in reality can't deliver on much of anything. Sounds like Trump, yes?
The second has to do with a similar sort of psychological brainwashing. Once again, people who are less educated succumb to a phenomena of noise persuasion. It doesn't matter what the orator is saying in terms of substance, but as long as he keep rambling, whether it is vocally, or on TV, or through electronic media, the people are mesmerized: not by the message, but by the constant stream of noise--which to them sounds like something constructive, event though it has no content. Once again, sounds like Trump and his supporters, yes?
Dig around and you can find the Russian connection, and you also find the scientific discussion of the latter 'noise persuasion' theory.

By their systematic brainwashing you for the entire 30 years you have been on this planet, that is why you think the way you do.
Due to the good work the democrats have done on you and your fellow snowflakes, America is doomed, it is not the same country it was even 40 years ago.
Just as the Roman Empire was never defeated, but destroyed from the inside, America is following that same path. This country is doomed to the same fate, by the left wing wackos who have changed the way good Americans think. This country is no so divided I don't see any way it can survive for much longer.
Thank you democrats, thank you Mr Mariner and fellow snowflakes who have chosen the wrong path to follow...
It's a byproduct of our polarized politics. Anything and anyone who supports (or enables) 'our team' is good.
Which is exactly the way that conservatives view democrat actions on the supposed Russian conspiracy.
It was clear to the nation that the liberal complex was out to destroy or hinder Trump at any cost during the election season, and thus they lost all credibility.
Thus, their actions now have no air of non-partisan legitimacy.
Complaining that the other party won't lend their actions any credibility now is ridiculous and self-deceptive in terms of what credibility they (you) have.

That's why the Republicans fawn over Putin, and play footsie with White supremacists.
"That's why liberals fawn over or excuse Castro, and other communist regimes, and not only play footsie but give full service to black supremacists, latino supremacists, and everyone else who opposes any type of white demographic or political dominance even within Europe".
