What is comical is this. *****s are acting like this is something that doesn't go on daily. The biggest countries (and even smaller ones) countries in the digital age are constantly being "targeted and attempted to be hacked" by all countries that have an interest in it which includes Russian, USA, China, ect ect. This makes this whole story moot. You should KNOW it's being done, so why are you acting all surprised when someone writes a story about it?
Ah yes, the "because x happens all the time it makes y irrelevant" logic, about as flawed as a shattered diamond.
First, there is somethings called false equivalency. Just because countries hack each other all the time does not take away from the significance of this event. This is the first time ever Russia was able to influence the outcome of an election of a country as powerful as America so obviously something of this magnitude is a rarity.
Second, something occurring on a regular basis doesn't suddenly make it right. People are murdered every minute on this planet, the rate at which it occurs does not absolve the criminals of their deeds. Just because everyone in Germany during WWII was cooking jews on a daily basis did not make the loss of human life any righter.
Understand history? I studied International Relations for 4 years in college lol.
Looks like your university was successful in doing exactly what leftist nutjobs in charge hope it'll do.
Tell us, what kind of job are you going to get with a degree like that? Barista? Waiter? Bellhop?
This is a fact: If you support Trump, you are supporting a puppet government propped up by one of America's enemies.
Trump was running on a nationalist platform. Do you not see the insanity inherent in suggesting that Vladmir Putin, former KGB agent of the Communist Soviet Union is responsible for the sudden rise in American Nationalism?
The truth is Russia didn't elect Trump, angry Americans did. Showing up here and repeating the lies you hear on television, and claiming they are your own thoughts is dishonorable, just like the socialist scum who've put America in jeopardy with more of the unfunded liabilities they've forced on the populace in order to buy votes.
They are touting 'Open boarders' not out of altruism, but because they know that more illegal aliens means more votes for their politicians who will promise more free stuff to them stolen from the pockets of working American taxpayers. That is the kind of policy that will lead to America's downfall, and anyone who knows how to think can see it without someone like me spelling it out for them.
...there is a very real possibility Trump will go down in history as the start of America's decline.
Sure if history is recorded by the liars in the press, but they're hemorrhaging cash like crazy now because more and more people are catching on to what they are and what they represent, and treat them with the ostracism they deserve.
"Trump was running on a nationalist platform. Do you not see the insanity inherent in suggesting that Vladmir Putin, former KGB agent of the Communist Soviet Union is responsible for the sudden rise in American Nationalism?"
It's easier to manipulate an dingdong then an experienced diplomat. I think you may not be aware of this, but Trump SoHO was Trump's resurgent hotel push after a string of failures. You may also be unaware that the company that helped fund it has direct ties to the Russian Mafia and Turkish nationals. Make no mistake, Trump has various investments with Russia and it is obvious to see how easy it would be for Putin to control Trump.
"just like the socialist scum who've put America in jeopardy with more of the unfunded liabilities they've forced on the populace in order to buy votes."
It's always funny one someone throws the word "socialist" around like it's a bad thing. It's like they don't realize that the foundation of that word, society, are one and the same. The pooling of resources for the betterment of everyone. It's what's given America it's Army, roads, school systems, government. All socialist. But yes, do keep playing your radical politics, you are a well trained dog indeed.

O'rly?
And yet within the 8 years Obama has been in office we have seem more republicans voted into the house and senate then democrats. Your logic makes no sense, you have no cause, no effect, and no data. No, we are to believe your ridiculous ploy and not the Gerrymandering that has been taking place or voting restrictions. You are such a tool and they use your false fear to make you dance on a marionette.
