“Superficial” is precisely the right word. This is Nixonian and they know it. It’s huge, and they are back on defense.
...the Russian election thingie...
And what exactly is the Russian election "thingie"? What is the Left alleging Trump and/or his people did? Is whatever they are alleging even possible?
1. We do not have one single election. We have 51 (50 states and DC).2. Every state has their own method of conducting elections, and most (if not all) conduct them at the county level of management. Some counties use electronic means. Others still use paper ballots. None use a method connected to the internet.
3. There are 3,141 counties and county equivalents in the 50 States and DC.
4. So are we to believe the scurrilous allegation that the Russians literally hacked the election when our methods and jurisdictions are so diffuse and different?
5. What the Left is actually attempting to get people to believe is that Trump and/or his people colluded with the Russians to leak the Clinton and Podesta emails.
6. So far they have not produced a shred of evidence that anything even remotely like that happened. If they had such evidence, they would have produced it prior to the election in an attempt to guarantee a Clinton win.
So using simple logic and common sense, this entire Russian "thingie" is a completely fabricated lie. I do not put it past the Obama crowd to literally create evidence of some kind of paper or electronic trail, but it is all a lie of monumental proportions.
