Evidence is mounting that Russia took 4 clear paths to meddle in the US election


By Sonam Sheth and Natasha Bertrand
June 24, 2017

The first involved establishing personal contact with Americans perceived as sympathetic to Moscow — such as former Defense Intelligence Agency chief Michael Flynn, former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort, and early Trump foreign-policy adviser Carter Page — and using them as a means to further Russia's foreign-policy goals.

The second involved hacking the Democratic National Committee email servers and then giving the material to WikiLeaks, which leaked the emails in batches throughout the second half of 2016.

The third was to amplify the propaganda value of the leaked emails with a disinformation campaign waged predominantly on Facebook and Twitter, in an effort to use automated bots to spread fake news and pro-Trump agitprop.

And the fourth was to breach US voting systems in as many as 39 states leading up to the election, in an effort to steal registration data that officials say could be used to target and manipulate voters in future elections.

Five months post inauguration and still no Trump punitive response whatsoever against Moscow for the Russian attacks against America's election process.

That's beacause

a. Trump's people were in on it as was evidenced by point 1

b. Someone steered the Russians in the right direction regarding what to steal and how to release it, see item a.

c. Someone in item a directed the Russians as to what the bots should say and who to say it to.

d. Someone in item a took that stolen voter information and used to to benefit the Trump campaign.
 
Russia didn't elect trump.

I did.

The Obama administration found out about Russian meddling in August, and months later responded by spying on and unmasking Trumps camapign staff, investigating Trumps campaign staff and associates for collusion and attempting to hack into muliple State voter databases.

It took several months for Trump to even admit there was Russian meddling.
 
Even if I bought his BS during the campaign, by this point in time in his administration, I wouldn't be saying that with pride.

Lol ! Right, because Trump has been such a Poltical liabillity for the GOP ?

They're 5 - 0 in special elections since his inaugeration.
If anything its the Russian narrative that people should shut up about because people just arent buying into it.

Well then he and Obama have something in common.

What an odd fantasy life you have.

You seem obsessed with continually repeating that lie.

What's the point in claiming something that doesn't square w/reality?
 
To reiterate...

Five months post inauguration and still no Trump punitive response whatsoever against Moscow for the Russian attacks against America's election process.

Nothing. Nada. Zilch. Trump hasn't even waged his finger at the Russians. But he did invite the attackers into the Oval Office for belly laughs and high fives...

Really, thats your marker for success, Republican candidates winning special elections in districts so heavily gerrymandered that under normal circumstances no one would ever expect them to lose? The fact that those races were even in the conversation should have you worried. The fact that Dems think they can win in districts gerrymandered against them shows how weak Trump is. In case you forget, Gerrymandering is when district lines are drawn to include only the people who vote for you in several districts and lump the people who don't into one district. You have Boomers and their refusal to change their minds, to thank for winning those special elections, not Trumps awesome job at President.

Don Cheeto would never seek to punish Russia in any way, shape, or form for the part Russia played in ****ing with the 2016 US POTUS election.

Obama placed some sanctions on Russia as a response & limited Russian access to some Russian property here in the US.

Trump? He & his Russian lovers have been busy trying to figure out how in the Hell they can remove the sanctions that Obama put in place, which makes Don Cheeto an enemy of the state. That's right folks; Trump is like a treasonous **** sandwich.

Don Cheeto is like a **** sandwich that never runs out of **** .....................

Of course not. You are a Marxist, and Trump is an unabashed capitalist peeg.

I could get you to accept that Trump molested children if I told you that it was Obama's idea.

....

Of course Trump denies there is any problem here since the actions by Russia helped Trump get elected. Thus,he only sees this as a pure good.
 
After the fake claims about Saddam's WMD, I need to see the actual evidence on the allegations against Russia.

Would you be providing evidence too or is this just the next phase of the Democrat plan to remain Politically irrelevant? Because if it is, I like it !

Lol...Right, the Democrats just spent nearly 30 million dollars and threw everything they had at Georgia because they thought the race was hopelessly Gerrymandered....:roll:

Its a little better than the talking point that they really really came close and that spells doom for the GOP in the 2018 midterms. Like it was their intention to spend 30 million to come in second.

Since 2010 the GOP has picked up 14 Governors and the Senate majority, niether of those are Gerrymandered. Sorry, the voters just aren't buying the Trump hatred or the conspiracy theories and some Democrat politicians are just starting to wake up to that fact

I don't need to provide evidence. All I need to do is suggest that Obama was negligent in some way thereby allowing trump to molest children. That's just how you guys roll.
