Seriously, for the past 2-3 months it's been NOTHING but "Russia this, Russia that" and "obstruction this, obstruction that" segments on all the major media outlets. It's getting old, and i think most Americans don't even give a crap to be honest - other than rabid or fanatical Lefties of course. If you ask the average American on the street, they find the notion that Russia somehow "forced" them to vote for Trump on election night as laughable. I bet most don't even know what "obstruction of justice" is, or care for that matter.

Hell, i don't even lean right/Trump, and even i could care less about this "Russia" and "obstruction" crap being shoved down our throats 24/7 by the legacy TV media

Can they shut up already with this "Russians" story and get back to doing their jobs, like reporting ACTUAL news and what's going on around the world?

I swear, whenever i walk by a TV it's nothing but "Trump sucks" narrative type stories, over and over and over and over and over..... its boring, just shut up already!!

Like i said, i don't even lean Trump. If i remember correctly, when Obama got in the media just went back to "business as usual" covering current events, worldwide events, etc, they mostly just left him alone. Same thing with Bush. But this "obsession" with all things Donald Trump is really something else.

It's no wonder the viewership of most of these "mainstream" stations has gone down, people got burned out by so much anti-Trump vitriol and turned to the internet for a breath of fresh air.

Some do, some don't. I'd say about half don't. They also do not vote. But if things ever get brought up a notch where charges are filed,etc....suddenly everyone will care.

When it has been proven over & over as a false narrative, the boy that cried wolf, comes to mind.


Covfefe!!

More people voted for kendall in ga-06 then voted for trump there. Both candidates made it a point to not make it about Trump.

The US has meddled in foreign elections for years, so it would not surprise me if the Russians tried to also. However, until the proof is presented, I could care less.

Normal Americans are concerned about whether the American elections have been compromised.

That is if they have any pics political conscious.
