No one is upset that misinformation was spread. They are upset that truth was exposed.
The press, the party, the Justice Department, the Clinton Foundation, the Clintons themselves, just about everyone surrounding them, exposed as corrupt and colluding to hide their corruption.
What was exposed wasn’t really secret, but it forced the press, for a nanosecond, to talk about the kind of corruption they normally close their eyes to. It took them a bit to find a way to spin it away... but now they have seized on the “Russian hacking” story and they are beating that drum for all its worth. If they beat the drum loudly enough, maybe no one will remember what was exposed.
The Clintons sold America’s uranium to the Russians and collected over a hundred million for doing it. That’s just the tip of the iceberg. Justice colluded with FBI to protect the Clintons. The press colluded with the Clintons to keep all their scandals out of the papers while savaging their opponents. Podesta, the center of the email storm, is in bed financially with Putin. When does that make the papers?
Let’s assume that Putin’s IT crews did everything that the MSM says they did. So what? Blaming the Russians for Clinton’s loss is like blaming Toto for pulling back the curtain to reveal the Wizard’s fraudulence.
NOBODY is alleging that the DNC and Podesta emails were either fabricated or altered. What the Dems’ argument comes down to is this: “Damn it! If only we’d been able to keep those stupid voters in the dark for just a few more months, we would have won this thing….”
