Obama reaped what he sowed. You don't mess with Israel because it will come back to you, (in this case, Russian style).

"The Russians spent a reported $100,000 on Facebook ads during the election.
Barack Obama spent $350,000 to interfere with the Israeli elections to unseat pro-US Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Obama spent more than three times as much to interfere in the Israeli elections than the Russians spent on Facebook ads.

Barack Obama also interfered in the Kenyan, Egyptian, German and British elections.
CNS News reported:

According to the U.S. Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations (PSI), the State Department gave $349,276 in U.S. taxpayer-funded grants to a political group in Israel to build a campaign operation, which subsequently was used to try to influence Israelis to vote against conservative Benjamin Netanyahu in the March 2015 election for prime minister."

So, you're saying bend over for the Russians. Can't tell the difference between Trump supporters and Russian trolls. What happened to America first?

Let's see, so the Obama administration, all legally mind you, helping to fund a campaign group(s) that supports a candidate that they thought served the U.S. interests is the same thing as having Russian "business" people pose as Americans, steal identities, invent and pretend to be legit American advocacy groups, spread distorted facts and/or lies, and purposely pit different groups of Americans against each other. You don't see the difference? You're a great American. Not.

I love when rightwing nuts rationalize their horrendous behaviors. Try using soap instead. It won’t work but at least you’ll smell better.

If Russia had interfered in our election on behalf of Hillary Clinton - the conservatives would be screaming for a new election.

Obama meddled in other counties' elections too

Yes he did, and he thoroughly pizzed off Putin. We especially interfered in Ukraine's election. Point that out though and you get stupid comments like "So, you're saying bend over for the Russians".

If that happened, there would have been no special counsel to investigate it. That's just fact.

Minding our own business is putting America first. Otherwise it's putting Wall Street first.

All you offer as proof is a CNS news link? How is that supposed to be any more credible than the MSM?
