Vladimir Putin gave direct instructions to help elect Trump, report says - CBS News

Absolutely mind blowing to me that not only did Putin personally direct this operation, but that Republicans are perfectly ok with it.

This was without a doubt a Russian coup of the U.S.

There were Republicans on CNN this morning saying they it bothers them a great deal that the president pretends nothing happened, and therefore there is no problem, and nothing needs to be fixed. With that attitude the door is open for Russia to do it again.

But then again, maybe that is what Trump is counting on in 2020 After all, Russia was 100% behind Trump, so why not again?

All the Trump worshippers/Republicans who continue to ignore that Trump was put in power by a foreign enemy.

Republicans are not ok with it--that's why they are holding hearings and investigations.

Trump is ok with it. Never even asked a question to Comey about it. Doesn't care. Doesn't care what Putin does. The reality host in chief very simply could care less about America's sovereign democratic processes. He just does not care (or owes Putin bigly).

I'm still trying to figure out what the left wants exactly out of this....

Let's say Russia wanted Donald Trump elected and attempted to tilt the election in his favor...ok, great, fine....

What exactly do they suggest we do about it? Start a nuclear war over it??

Whatdo they want the end result to be from all of this?

Do they think Hillary is going to be dug up and carried into the White House?

And just about every agency chief and official says that you're wrong.

Listen closely...

You Lost the election.

I don't think it is accurate to say republicans don't care. They may not agree that it changed the outcome, but any American who cares for our democracy cares that a hostile foreign entity was this involved in trying to subvert it.

More unnamed sources and unreleased classified information. IOW's more BS.
