If Putin's meddling in the US election tipped the scale in favor of Trump, does not that make Trump's presidency questionable?
Why is Trump so eager to downplay that possibility?
First, you have to prove it.
Hillary was a terrible candidate with more baggage than Jet Blue.
Also, the meddling would have tobe much more severe than publishing information that was true albeit stolen.

If the Russians did not manipulate the actual vote numbers then how would their involvement make Trump's Presidency questionable?
They argue that Russia hacked the DNC and released info which hurt Clinton Corp enough that she lost an election that she would have won.
Not a bit of this is proven fact, we'll see if the DC ELITE can prove anything, they did make the attempt today to prove that Russia hacked the DNC.

That is what I have heard way over here too... now the issue would be was the released information true or false. If true then no harm done. If false then there might be.

Trump is clearly illegitimate as a president. And for three very good reasons.
1- It is the very mechanism that puts him into office that renders him illegitimate at the same time - the Electoral College. Trump lost the popular vote by over 2,865,000 votes. And that will forever stain him since everyone knows he was NOT the choice of the American people.
2- the illegal Comey letter the played a significant role in turning the election from Clinton to Trump over the last ten days of the campaign
3- the interference by the Russians in our election with their wikileaks releases which hurt Clinton
Trump is the most illegitimate President since Andrew Johnson took over in 1865.
The only people claiming that nonsense are loony leftists who are sore their candidate lost. Clinton lost because she is a lousier candidate than Trumo. If there was actual evidence not speculation that the Russians hacked the DNC then it would have been released. This whining over letters and what not is just a bogus attempt to draw attention away from Clinton wrong doing.Most of those popular votes are from overcrowded loony leftists cities,so I glad there is mechanism in place to ensure that densely over populated states don't have all the say in who our president is.besides that is loony leftists like to remind us Clinton won the popular vote,so the ALLEGED russian hacking and ALLEGED illegal letter from Comey didn't do squat.

I agree with this insofar as I don't think it affects Trump's legitimacy as President. But I don't think it's accurate to say there was no harm done if a foreign power hacked us with the intention of influencing our elections, regardless of whether the information is true or not.
I think many of the Republicans in Congress who've talked about it have the right idea on this. Accept Trump as president, but recognize that if it happened then it's a legitimate concern that needs to be dealt with.
Through airing the dirty laundry of one side, and favoring the other, creating a bias in the public.
But in reality that is what campaigns are about, without actual vote number changes, Trump was elected by the american people based on the information they had good or bad (information that is)
