This is what public corruption looks like folks and it is a felony. That was the second story on Lester Holt's newscast. Oh, wait. It wasn't. The second story was about how Putin fixed and rigged the game to put his boyfriend in the White House. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all reminds me so much of what's happening with Brexit -- Clinton Supporters in the US and Remain supporters in the UK are throwing accusations and doom and gloom prophecies around - bewailing the damage a Trump presidency will have and the UK leaving the EU will have - but it is they themselves who are hellbent on causing as much damage as they can by undermining the democratic decisions and fomenting as much division as they can which can only be detrimental to the countries as a whole - and the economies - . It's like condemning animal cruelty while you beat your pet. I gave Obama a chance, but it's obvious that they won't give the same courtesy to Trump. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ellapenella Posted December 15, 2016 #229 Share Posted December 15, 2016 The overseers of the U.S. intelligence community have not embraced a CIA assessment that Russian cyber attacks were aimed at helping Republican President-elect Donald Trump win the 2016 election, three American officials said on Monday. The position of the ODNI, which oversees the 17 agency-strong U.S. intelligence community, could give Trump fresh ammunition to dispute the CIA assessment, which he rejected as 'ridiculous' in weekend remarks, and press his assertion that no evidence implicates Russia in the cyber attacks. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4027344/Top-U-S-spy-agency-not-embraced-CIA-assessment-Russia-hacking-sources.html / 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The majority of the media couldn't stand Trump. According to most of the mainstream media Trump's a racist/sexist/bigot not even qualified to be dog catcher let alone President. Didn't you ever see that show "The View" or watch CNN? Hell, members of the media gave the debate questions (ahead of time) to Donna Brazil for goodness sakes! Trump was most certainly subjected to media scrutiny...very negative media scrutiny. The media coverage i saw was pro Trump. Hillary was much maligned in press and even by the FBI. Of course Trump was attacked but for someone that had bankruptcies and tax issues he certainly wasn't called up on any of them like the indiscretions of Clinton. And for the post of POTUS if you had a rating system for indiscretions unbecoming, 1 being a slight infraction of character and 10 being not able to assume office for having a scumbag past... then Trump would have rated a 8-9 and Clinton a 6-7 at most. Of course both candidates should have been disqualified. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mainstream media was very much pro-Clinton. Fox News (being conservative) was more pro-Trump but even there some didn't care much for him. Perhaps there's some far right (obscure) news outlet that was pro-Trump? That said, just about everything I saw on the news was very dismissive of Trump (some even laughed at him).

Lilly Posted December 15, 2016 #243 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Back to the Russians hacking, let's say it actually was the Russians that hacked the DNC then gave the emails to WikiLeaks. Ok, now it has to be shown that this directly made people vote for Trump. And remember, these are the voters (in the central states) who have suffered the worst under the policies of the Obama administration. How are they going to prove these folks weren't motivated to vote Trump by unemployment, poor economy, social injustice, costly healthcare, rampant immigration vs anything put on WikiLeaks? How are they going to prove this? IMO, this is just another political move designed to throw a wrench into the Trump Presidency. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RavenHawk Posted December 15, 2016 #245 Share Posted December 15, 2016 This morning there's a new story out that the CIA has new information that Putin was personally involved. But the other question is that doesn't the release of the emails still show corruption on the part of the DNC? Isn't that more important information than Russia hacking? If the hacking did indeed affect the election, I'd say that Putin provided a service to preserve our form of government. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if true it still shows interference by a foreign government....not a good thing. However, even if Vlad Putin himself was doing the hacking and personally sent it off to Julian Assange...it still doesn't prove that the voters went Trump for that reason vs the other reasons I listed. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lilly Posted December 15, 2016 #248 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Here's something to mull over; the calling for the re-counts (now dead in the water), the allegations that the Russians caused people to vote Trump, the push to get the Electoral College delegates to override their constituents and not vote Trump...do we see a pattern emerging here? Ironically, this will only further serve to alienate those in the 'fly over' states who have rejected what the Democrats have been offering. Not too smart IMO. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myles Posted December 15, 2016 #249 Share Posted December 15, 2016 I'm still not sure this is relevant at all. Even if the Russians hacked and got this info with the hopes of swaying voters. It's only the hacking part that bothers me. There were many government leaders that were throwing their support behind Hillary in order to sway voters. Did every bit of dirt found on Trump come from domestic media sources? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yamato Posted December 15, 2016 #250 Share Posted December 15, 2016 The allegations come from the CIA which must be the Hillary Clinton Election Agency the way this political spin about hacking goes. Evidence of hacking is evidence of fraud, no matter what the politics are that get played over this. How many times have people here parroted and still keep parroting the line that "there's no evidence of fraud." It's now become an addictive denial of reality. Every election will be rife with politics. Every election will have a winner and a loser, every election will have winner politics and loser politics. Did the leaks about Hillary Clinton in the final months of the election steer people away from voting for her? I would hope so. So Putin is a de facto whistleblower who could have been the difference between victory and defeat. If he's going to be our new friend in the world, we shouldn't simultaneously want to keep Assange under house arrest, Snowden holed up in an undisclosed location and Manning attempting suicide in prison when we could have four new friends. When Wikileaks goes after Trump, somehow I have to guess that won't be politically correct anymore and the spin here will go the other way and demonize Wikileaks again. We also now know that Georgia has discovered that their systems were hacked too, by DHS. So our own government is hacking our elections. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
