goals were to undermine public faith in the US democratic process, denigrate Secretary Clinton, and harm her electability and potential presidency.

Seems to me the Democrats did a pretty thorough job of that themselves.

Don’t read it via a news outlet. Read it for yourself first here: https://www.dni.gov/files/documents/ICA_2017_01.pdf

RE: DISCREDITING HILLARY CLINTON

Jack Kerwick of Townhall describes it nicely...

if the Putin government had hacked away at the DNC email, wouldn’t a man who is supposed to be as big of a thug as everyone says Putin is want to exploit all of that information to blackmail Hillary Clinton and her party?

It would have made eminently good sense for a master conniver like Putin to help Clinton win so that he could exert control over the American presidency for the next four or eight years.

On the other hand, if, as Democrats like Obama assure us, the hacked emails were “boring,” then why would a heavy-hitter like Putin even waste his time with them? If they were so unremarkable, then how did they manage to undermine trust in the Democrats and tilt the election in favor of Trump?

The Democrats can’t have it both ways here: If the DNC/Hillary emails were dull, then there would’ve been no point for the Russians, or anyone else, to have hacked them, for no one is going to care about dull emails. If, though, the Russians or anyone else went through the trouble of hacking and releasing these emails with an eye toward catapulting to victory a candidate who was the Underdog of all underdogs, and if this strategy worked, then the content of those emails must have been anything but “boring.”

What was “discovered” simply CONFIRMED what any well informed voter already knew about Hillary Clinton. With or without Russia’s attempt at “discrediting” her, her record is already a DISCREDIT to herself.

Trump is an advocate of U.S. power.
Hillary is a Howard Zinn / Saul Alinsky Progressive.

Putin has had free reign with little opposition from the U.S. during the Obama/Clinton/Kerry regime.

Why would Putin want Trump over Hillary?

The most blatant false flag since the Reichstag Fire.

What is clear is that the Rats want to discredit Trump’s very comfortable victory and allow the Globalists the chance to declare nuclear war on Russia.

Given how easy Trump won in the end , there was never any need for external agents to help out . Nor is our security so weak that some guy sitting in his moms basement in the Kremlin could breach it . This was an inside job .

So Putin made Trump electable. Maybe the DNC can get some pointers from the Russians on how to make a candidate more electable to a broader electret. I wonder if it caused Putin more to elect Trump than it cost the DNC to fail to elect Hillary. Exit question: are the Russians now the beat campaign IU g managera in all of the United States?

Doesn't make any sense at all.

We have to assume that the Russians knew there was dirt to be gained and that millions would switch their vote to Trump. What a ridiculous premise.

I have not read it yet. I assume if they had a smoking gun, it would have been emblazoned in every headline in the country.

Therefore, I assess, and I agree with myself completely, that this whole thing is BS.

I also assess that these people will be out of their jobs in two weeks. I would say 14 days, but someone would call me a neo-nazi.

Since no one expected Trump to actually win outside a few election insiders within the US, wouldn’t a better conclusion be that the Russians were seeking to weaken a future President Hillary Clinton?

Seems like a lot of hindsight among Democrats.

Russia's goals were to undermine public faith in the US democratic process, denigrate Secretary Clinton, and harm her electability and potential presidency.

Right. They did that by orchestrating Hillary Clinton's "Down goes Frazier!" collapse at the 9/11 memorial ceremony in New York City, by feeding a transcript into her teleprompter at a campaign fundraiser in New York that made her call Trump's supporters "deplorables" and "irredeemables," and by stealing all of her clothing and replacing it with crap that made her look like she was dressed up as an oven mitt for Halloween.

Perhaps Putin wanted to discredit Trump by making it appear he favored him.

Russia shot Clinton in the foot, but little did they know, she, the DNC, John Podesta, Donna Brazile, et al, were hacking her leg off at the knee.

The Dems have been planning this for over a year. First the phony Tump/Putin bromance, then fictitious business dealing, and after Hillary lost, they went into the final stage, Russia hacked the election.

There are several reasons the most evident that they could try and discourage electors to defect because of Russian interference. When that didn’t work, Obama tried to start a war over the alleged hack. And when Putin laughed out loud, they went to the Congressional certification process.

They only needed one Senator, just one yet failed again. God knows where they’ll go from here, Clapper said the hack could be considered an act of war.

Scares me because Obama is like a cornered animal, will strike out any way he can. Prayers up we get rid of this jerk and his entire cabal.

How can Putin calmly eat popcorn and look on? If I here him, I’d be laughing uncontrollably and probably pee myself.

And what’s with this “we assess” bullshit? So they made there opinions known and jerked a few chains, maybe. Hasn’t the U.S. always done stuff like that, and worse?
