Why did Russia Meddle in US Election?
To get their man, Donald Trump, into the White House. It helps Russia advance their agenda.

Also -- as history has shown us -- the most diabolical leaders like to show they have power, or they can exert influence. Like North Korea's love of the grand military parade to 'show off' their power, Russia showed they can toy with the great USA & its election process.

They are laughin at the USA -- but not at the turmoil in the country -- at the fact that the USA can be toyed with. Makes the USA seem weaker -- not such a super power.

But we will have a parade and show them -- wait until they see all our soldiers -- that will scare them off.

I read they wanted to sow discord. Which they did: investigations, allegations, doubt, animosity. They didn't favor one candidate or side over the other.

Putin was working with Obama to divide America, Putin had his reasons and Obama, his reasons.


The intent was irrelevant to the shared goal of a divided America to make it susceptible to installing a socialist style government where the politically elite could tell the people, 'we have to pass it to find out what is in it" and never be challenged. That statement marked the mainstream media coming out of the closet as the official propaganda machine.


Obama and Putin shared a vision where governments dominate the people.


Putin appreciated Obama's invitation and so Obama remained silent while Russia and other enemies hacked government databases and attempted to divide America. Worked out for Putin and backfired on Obama who then cried foul after Hillary dropped the crown and scepter handed her for her 2016 coronation.

And all it took was $2M to defeat the Dims with their $4B....how sad the Dims can't defeat an opponent with thousands of times less resources even with the Media, Hollywood, millions of illegals...those Russian Bots sure are powerful, I gotta get some of those.

Exactly. What does Russia meddling with the election have to do with Bernie Sanders? They were influencing the election to help Trump win, not anyone else.
