I wonder what it will take for right wing folks to believe there was Russian meddling. Some at least prefer to keep their heads in the sand or up their posteriors and claim it's a "work of fiction." I'm not even talking possible collusion with the Trum campaign, just Russian meddling in the election.
I believe they meddled. Russia has always tried to meddle in our elections
When you tell me somehow Hillary would have won if it weren’t for those pesky Russian though, then all one can do is laugh
This is a patently stupid comeback. First, I've never said this is why Hillary lost. I'm not sure I even care at this point. I truly believe this is not a red issue or a blue issue, but an American issue. We are not doing anything to make the 2018 safer.
What are you suggesting? A war? Should we start wars because other countries meddle in our affairs just like we do all around the world to other countries?
Why is it OK for us but not for them? At least Russia did not invade and start dropping bombs like we do when we do not like the outcome of an election.
We do that and I'm suppose to get upset because Russia posted actual news stories on the internet?
Here is what I dont get. In the article, they talk about how the Russians used the hacked Podesta emails to distract from the Access Hollywood tapes.
So the only real difference is that in one case, it was the media trying to destroy a presidential candidate with the truth, while in the other case, it was a foreign government trying to destroy a presidential candidate with the truth.
So what I dont get, is, why is one wrong and not the other?
which is funny since the Access Hollywood tapes got way more coverage, likely ten times as much coverage, as Wikileaks

Dumb question. Why is our only course of action is to go to war or do nothing? How about we secure the election system.

I never said it was OK fr us to do it. I'm more concerned with our own elections on American soil. We all should be.

No, what's ****ing stupid is this NON-STOP crying about Russia Russia Russia! Soviet Russia had infiltrated our media, Edu, and governance all throughout the last century before they crashed and burned. The mess they made here resulted in you progressive idiots!
Lay off the commie socialism and identity politics, and then perhaps you dems could win at the ballot box.

I never said that. The Washington Post column said that, but I'm not sure I believe that. Meddling in the election should still worry all Americans though, especially those of us who believe there was Russian meddling.

Blame Hillary and Obama. That’s all the argument the right seems to have. Look at your Orange Liar in office now. If Trumps lips are moving, he’s lying....
