If Russia meddled in our election it was done to help Hillary.

They were the source of many of the lies for the Trump dossier. Later in the general election their spreading of discord was mainly to hurt Hilalry who they expected to win. But their efforts were minor, less than $100k in a multi billion dollar election.

“Lindsey, explain how they meddled. What did they do and when?”

Linda went to a different type law school, one where just knowing something happened is proof enough to convict.

I assume most nations meddle, ourselves included, but without citing supportive facts it is only conjecture on my part.

Major nations always “meddle” in other countries’ elections. It was ever thus and will not cease in the future. Uncle Sam has done it as a matter of course at least since WWII. Obama did it pretty close to Overtly in Israel. All the shock and indignation now is simply the attempt to oust the current President.

Actually Russia’s less-than-penny ante meddling was distributed. Russia’s goal is disruption and sowing distrust with the system.

It is concerning that Lindsey Graham is in a position of authority.

Still looking for the proof of meddling. The fact that some Russians commented on American politics over the internet is no more meddling than the internet comments of the EU’s America haters. And the Obama regime did more than its share of meddling in the politics of other nations, such as Israel, Britain, and Columbia.

Soros sure wasted that 100 million. All he had to do was hire two dozen internet trolls.

Linda, Linda, Linda, throw it out there.

What did Russia do?

Did they give Trump questions in advance of a debate?

Did they throw Trump into an SS van like a sack of potatoes?

Did they schedule Hillary to NOT campaign in must win states?

Did they disparage half the nation by calling them deplorables?

Did they set-up a Uranium-One deal to benefit the Clinton Foundation?

Did they give millions upon millions to the Clinton Foundation laundered through Saudi Arabia and now they have stopped?

Did they murder Seth Rich?

Bitch

“Has any voter ever come forward to say that his vote was based on what Russians told him?”

Mine was. Everybody who takes their orders from the Russians was telling me how great Felonia von Pantsuit was, so I voted for Trump.

Okay, so I would have voted for President Trump anyway, and would have died before voting for the Arkansas Medusa. The point is that the propaganda was all in favor of the horrible monster who killed Vince Foster.

It’s also #FakeNews to say that any Russian meddling was more than negligible.

They need to just throw it out there.

If Russia was putting ads on Facebutt, I don’t care.

This is a witch-hunt into the Presidents ass going back 50 years.

The President has every right to release everything on Barry.
