Trump blames Obama for Russian election meddling

Rubbish. The argument was evidence that Trump colluded, not Russia didn’t seek to screw with the election.

Incorrect. Trump and the GOP have been attempting to kill the investigation from day 1, even into Russian interference. Up until about a month or two ago nobody on the right would even admit the Russians were involved at all. The investigation continues despite your attempts to kill it, and it will continue to drag the truth into the light.

Yet again, rubbish.
The argument has been that Trump & Co. conspired in the Russian efforts, not that the Russian efforts didn’t occur.

Obama sought a “reset” of relations with Russia. He absolutely thought thought the frayed relations was the fault of the Bush Admin.

Sanctions were imposed in December 2016.

The reset started in 2009 and was making progress, the START treaty reduced nukes by 1/3, but things went downhill, understandably so, when Putin invaded the Crimea, and then conducted a massive cyber espionage campaign to influence 2016 elections. See Wiki on Russian Reset.


A new set of sanctions was imposed by Congress for the Russian espionage, but Trump didn't implement them for a long time.
