4) Trump's son, and several others (at least) were very happy to get whatever dirt they could on Hillary Clinton.......fact.

Now, what has not been proven as fact yet is how Donald Trump himself felt about that all going on. Hence, the reason we are having the current investigation. That is yet to come out.

Trumpees , of course, see 1 thru 4 above as fake, but there is clear cut proof of all of that, confirmed by every organization that examined the facts.
You do realize that both candidates would murder a baby and eat its heart while laughing hysterically for one more ounce of power, right?

Arguing over how a rigged and fake process plays out is mental masturbation.

By that train of thought so would be voting. Or spending time in a political forum discussing it.

Russians tried to hack election systems of 21 states in 2016, officials say

IT IS THE ROLE AND THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE STATES TO ENSURE THE ELECTION PROCESS.

The Federal Gov. can only assist if asked too by each state and when asked assistance is given.

Would you have the President overstep states rights and responsibility's ?

What is being done by Homeland Security is in this link.

How do you know he didn't try? If she is as hungry as she has been made out to be, she would have been an easy touch for Slick Vladdy and his impish little grin backed by his checkbook.

Doubt it happened, though. She and Putin already knew each other, and she scared hell out of him.

It had zero effect on the results;

"There is no evidence that any of the registration rolls were altered in any fashion, according to U.S. officials."

I agree though, we need to beef up our government cyber security especially for critical infrastructure like voting databases. Our best in the world private tech companies should be able to help with this.

Well, if someone attends a party, they are an ATTENDEE.

If someone goes in for a job interview, they are an INTERVIEWEE.

If someone is employed, they are an EMPLOYEE.

And, if someone drinks too much Kool Aide, they are a TRUMPEE.


It is a term of endearment.
