I know I am not alone in being sick and tired of the nonsensical Russian hacking brouhaha. Give it a rest--please. The only ones still buying into it are brain-dead liberal zombies who take as gospel anything their various propaganda outlets spew out
You brought this up [Russian hacking] and you act as if we all know this—and I don’t think we do all know this, actually. ....What’s this about? We all assume we know that Russia hacked the election, and I’m just asking why has not one person, not one explained exactly what that means. I’m getting very frustrated. I don’t know what it means to hack an election. I don’t know what they [the Russians] did that was so severe that you need to—spy on the Trump campaign.—Tucker Carlson “Tucker Carlson Tonight”
Behind all of the liberal smoke ‘n’ mirrors, obfuscation, blah-blah-blah, yakety-yakety-yak about Russian hacking, there is no there there. It is a “nothing-burger” being frantically peddled as a yummy filet mignon (“Let us spoon feed it to you, you’ll love it!”).
Good as far as it goes, but he doesn’t even mention that what probably happened was the DNC materials were leaked by a hidden Berner and the CIA followed up by planting false “evidence” that pointed to the Russians.
The people who rigged the election assure us that it was the Russians who did it. The people who were in bed with the Russians assure us it was Trump who was in bed with the Russians.
And they blast out their message around the clock on almost every media outlet.
The people who have mounted a slow-motion coup d’état keep pounding the drum and hope no one will notice what they are doing.
Elites in the Obama Administration, elites in "Intelligence Services, and elites at the Washington Post (and MSM outlets?) worked together "to unduly influence American elections".
Jail cells are ready and open...
Your summary is pretty accurate. I would only follow up by suggesting that this ploy by the MSM and the left will backfire. Their hardcore supporters and those who blindly trust the MSM will always believe Russia elected Trump.
However, the group they will alienate by never offering proof is larger than their base. This is the group that did not care for Hillary or believe what the MSM was saying and fortunately for us, it is the group that decides our national elections.
Strategically the Russia narrative is a big mistake for the left and the MSM. There is simply no proof. Much like the blindness they exhibited towards Hillary they are applying the same thought process to the Russia story. They still refuse to admit that they were rejected and it was not just Hillary - it was their ideas and the key poll that said a vast majority believed the country was on the wrong track. No amount of spin can change that hard truth.
The left will have to reset and accept that they cannot ram the agenda down our throat as they did with Obama. If they do not, they will suffer further losses. Eventually they will realize they no longer have absolute power and it will be back to the trickle, nibble, and bi-partisan cooperation cries that are more effective.
The issue remains, there is no proof the Russians wanted Trump to win, or worked with Trump. They simply wanted to weaken who they thought was going to be the next president, Hillary. But every time the when its said by the media and politicians the Russians worked to get Trump elected, what the truth is that the russians were working to discredited Hillary whom they thought would win.. and is not the same as supporting Trump , but still this lie gets repeated !
