She did .She blew off nothing or no one.
Face it Trump supporters all got duped by Russia and Putin.

You do realize these email hacks have been totally unafilliated with Clinton's server fiasco? And the emails that were leaked were leaked in totality so their was no media play to minimize anything. Also- its come out they also hacked Republicans.


The election is over and decided but we need to have eyes wide open in the modern world and sticking our head in the sand about an outside entity trying to influence our elections and the potential to blackmail politicians and government officials is huge.

So you admit to the fact that something is wrong when Clinton wins the popular vote by a large amount and Trump still gets elected?Even you know there was something wrong.

I thought most voting machines were not connected to the internet.
How did anybody "hack" them?
Are you 100% SURE it was the Russians?
Many I-T experts say it is practically impossible to tell who really hacked a computer, unless they are caught in the act, and then you just know the ip address, not who was actually using the computer!
It is easy to say "THEY did it!" It is much more difficult to prove it.

Personally, I decided long before the democrat convention that I would NOT vote for hillary, EVER!!

That's just silly. The citizens of Russia didn't cast a single vote in this presidential election. Perhaps you'd like to rephrase that?

This has been a year of dirty tricks. Celebrities and most news media outlets have gone all-out trying to stop one man from start to finish. They wanted to stop Trump in the GOP primaries and failed. They wanted to stop him in the general election and failed. The picture they painted of Donald Trump compared to the arrogant celebrity billionaire we all already knew pretty well was night-to-day different. They whitewashed Hillary's flaws to the best of their ability. It's unknown whether the Russians actually hacked anything. If they did, it's unknown whether Trump knew anything about it. At this point, we don't know anything for certain. The CIA and FBI aren't on the same page and Wikileaks claims to know the source of the Democrat leaks and that they're not certainly not Russian. But if Trump was complicit with Russians or some other entity hacking these things, and Hillary is complicit with the news media's active anti-Trump crusade ... then the two kinda balance each other out. Both are illegal, are they not?

I'd be all for neither tactic being used in the future. Hackers of all types are out there and the DNC and GOP both need to secure their crap. Hillary's personal email server was one of the stupidest unsecure moves I can remember, though it's not without similar examples on the GOP side. If you don't want to get hacked, teach your people how to not be blithering idiots. Not sure how you stop both ends of bias in the news media, but all of them need to live up to higher standards of conduct. This year was just embarrassing for them.
