A Russian official on Friday argued that U.S. democracy was undermined by President Obama's administration and the media, not by Moscow's alleged hacking campaign.
Russian Senator Alexey Pushkov offered his criticism following the public release of a U.S. intelligence report that accused Russian President Vladimir Putin of orchestrating an effort to "undermine public faith in the U.S. democratic process."
"The U.S. democratic process was undermined not by Russia, but by the Obama administration and mass media, which supported [Hillary] Clinton over [President-elect Donald] Trump," Pushkov tweeted.
"The danger to democracy is within U.S. itself," he added, arguing that Obama is responsible for Republicans' growing trust of Putin.

I hate it when a Russian is correct. But he is.
He is absolutely correct.
Say it! BHO switched which side of the ME war(s) the US was on, making our citizenry unwitting party to arming ISIS & Al Quaeda, paying scores of millions to Iran, head-chopping, Iranian nukes their surrogates’ terrorism, and on top of it all, genocide against large swaths of Christians!
Woe be he that tells the truth.
He is correct. Sad commentary on our government. The Cultural marxists have taken over and do not uphold their oath of office.
I can’t say I trust Putin. OTOH, I do not trust the MSM at all, and this Russian man is correct - the danger to our democracy is in having the news media totally in the tank for one candidate over the other.
They think they can get away with it by labelling the GOP candidates “Hitler” or “Nero” or “racist”. Since these accusations are so over the top, very few listen anymore - well no one who has any sense.
The education establishment need to be totally overhauled too.
Actually it was probably Hillary Clinton with Obama as the promo man.
He’s right...do we really realize just how close we came to being totally ruined? If not for God, Prayers and President Trump...I hate to even think what could have happened...

“Thus, while the conclusions in the report are all reflected in the classified assessment, the declassified report does not and cannot include the full supporting information, including specific intelligence and sources and methods.”
In other words, we should blindly trust this obama administration report every bit as much as when we heard obama repeat 23 times: “If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor. If you like your insurance plan, you can keep your insurance plan. Period.”
Put another way, this report says: We’ve made you a sandwich that has a bun, lettuce, onion, tomato, pickle and secret sauce, but no actual hamburger patty, but TRUST US, this sandwich IS a hamburger!
Correctomundo!
"Gaaaakk"
Agreed. Great post. Work with him. Respect him. Don’t trust him.
I LOVE the things Russians are saying.
I just don’t know if these leaders really care about democracy or republicanism at all.
Putin repudiating communism and the KGB is almost like one of us becoming liberal, no?
The Kenyanesian Usurpation was brought to you by BOTH parties.
The Constitution says natural born citizen.
That means one who is naturally an American because they couldnt be anything else, born here of citizen parents.
Everyone in DC wanted that changed without the hassle of amending the Constitution.
The Senate passed a resolution declaring McCain a natural born citizen because he had TWO citizen parents, even though he was born in Panama.
Then Obama runs and wins based on just being born here, even though he told us on his website he was born a British subject.
So the standard went from born here of citizen parents to just TWO citizen parents to just being born here in one election cycle without amending the Constitution.
According to this standard the recently deceased King of Thailand was eligible, he was born in Cambridge MA, as well as every anchor baby with no loyalty to the USA.
This was done intentionally because Rubio (no citizen parents), Cruz (foreign birth, one citizen parent), Jindal (no citizen parents), George P Bush (one citizen parent) and Haley (no citizen parents) were all ineligible and the future of the GOP.
The truth of the Kenyanesian Usurpation will never see the light of day because they all cooperated in the violation of the Constitution.
Say it! He had help arming jihadists from McCain, Graham and Rubio!
AND... here is how it's done.

“Democracy” is two coyotes and a hen voting on what’s for lunch.
The founders of this country worked hard to protect us from the insanity of “democracy.”
We have a constitutional republic (for now anyway)
