Remember when Barack Obama proclaimed to the whole world that the American election system was too decentralized to be hacked and/or the outcome affected? That entire notion completely disappeared the day Trump was elected. Not because Barack Obama was wrong, but because Democrats couldn't believe that Hillary in fact lost. It was at that moment that the NYT, CNN, WashPo, USA Today, and everyone of their colleagues and affiliates declared war on this President, up to and including finding every way to pin Trump's victory on collusion with Russia. The "dossier" was their evidence and their "insurance policy."

I'd say this guy is not putting forth a "novel theory" like has been expressed here. I'd say this is the beginning of the backpeddling. The NYT led this anti-Trump fight, and they stand to lose the most WHEN - NOT IF - Donald Trump is exonerated.

There has to be REAL CONSEQUENCES to the media when Trump investigation is over... they wasted our time, public money, and colluded with each other for chasing a unicorn... If the media gets off easy on this, they are allowed to do this every time a champion of the people becomes president...

So far there is no evidence that our election system was hacked. So....nice strawman there.

I don't consider Facebook our election system.
I don't consider the DNC databases our election system.

The voting booth is the election system and that was not hacked.

Reporters on Fox News are starting to saying the same thing.

What do you guys think?

I think the left are a bunch of idiots who have nothing.

We should have stopped wasting our time on them, the lot of them, over a year ago.

Of course it was. The russians were playing both sides, hacking Hillary and feeding misinformation about Trump to Hillary's oppo team. Just like the Russians buying a bunch of "Muslims for Hillary" ads in red states and Black Lives Matter ads in inner cities. They were looking to divide us and cause chaos.

The MSM is in heavy duty CYA mode. First the NYT tried to change the subject to drunken bar stool comments by the kid, now it's a devious Russian misinformation campaign. How about putting this whole mess square on Obama and Hillary.

Mark my words. You'll know the whole gig is up when the MSM starts publishing stories about Obama and Hillary and how they thought it was their patriotic duty to save America from Trump, and all you libs will be nodding your heads in agreement.
