Trump said the computer hacking “could have been other people and other countries.” There is no evidence for that. U.S. intelligence has named only Russia as the culprit.

"U.S. Intelligence" said that without a shred of evidence, so what's your point, Bill?

Trump claimed former President Barack Obama “did nothing” from August to Nov. 8 about Russia meddling in the election. That’s wrong. Among other things, Obama spoke to Putin about the issue in September, and his administration worked with state officials from mid-August until Election Day to prevent voting systems from being hacked.

He knew he'd have more flexibility after Hillary was elected.

At the time every one thought Hillary would win.

The election of Trump was a Black Swan event and an enraged Obama and Democrats trotted out the Russian election hacking theory to delegitimize Trump’s win.

They have never explained how Putin helped Trump to win. The three agency report was a highly politicized assessment put together by James Clapper to box in Trump.

To the extent that it succeeded, it kept Trump from being able to repair relations with Moscow as well as advance his domestic policy initiatives.

Whether true or not doesn’t matter; the people who hate Trump will never accept him as President and nothing he does will win them over.

We’re in a for a long 8 years.

These days, all you have to do to debunk these stories is to post the author's Twitter feed:

Usually, their membership in #TheResistance or their #NeverTrumping is immediately evident, as is the case with good ol' Eugene here.

"The Twitter Gated Community For Blue-Check Jernalists" lays their twisted black partisan Democrat souls open to the world.

So these people have better sources than the President of the United States. I am finding more and more “journalists” don’t live in the same universe as the rest of us. And many of them really are dumber than a box of rocks.

U.S. Intelligence also said Reptilians from Alpha Draconis built pyramids on the moon. See, I said they said it, so it must be true.

Who died and left these morons in charge of “fact checking”? People with an agenda should never be “fact checkers”. #fakefactcheckers.

So telling Putin to “knock it off” and verifying that individual voting precincts are decentralized and un-hackable is “doing something about it”? Pretty thin defense of their favorite president.

Wow, I never would have guessed Trump was dragged over the goal line by Puttie and Co! Sarcasm bros

Sad day for American media when they have less pull than Puttie and Co.
Not sarcasm

Exactly! The person who would be subject to possible blackmail was actually the presumptive president (Clinton) and not some high level official in the Trump administration (Flynn.) That was the plan all along. And as soon as Trump won, the rats projected all of their underhanded, dirty dealings onto Trump. That is there MO. That’s also why they have nothing to offer in the way of positive and productive ideas. They’ve been mired in the swamp so long lies and Bullsh!t are all they are capable of spouting.

NONE?

Good luck making anything hold up in court.

But, the Russians were able to purchase 20% of the U.S. uranium deposit with collusion with Obama and Hillary.
