The answer to the question of whether Russians 'attempted' to influence the election is secondary to more pressing questions / answers. It's an established fact that they did. <Keyword: ATTEMPTED> With regard to that question Comey didn't tell us anything we didn't already know. With that fact established, the next question is 'were they successful in influencing the election?' Thus far (from what I've seen...could be wrong) the IC has agreed that they were not.

Successful or not, the most important question at this point is who? if anyone, in the Trump camp, or otherwise corroborated with the Russians? Another fact germane to the question is that there were meetings between Trump's campaign, then transition team and Russian officials. Despite the sensationalism and hyperbole, this is nothing new. The real meat on the bone for the left is not the meetings themselves, but the content of those meetings...what was discussed? At this point, we the public don't know the content and any conclusion one way or the other is pure party line self-serving speculation.

And another example of how we will never be able to depend on conservatives in office (or apparently at home) in the face of our enemies. Not if they see an advantage to be had. :shakeshead:



Progressives are the enemy; not Russians. Vladimir Putin never called my people deplorable.
Deplorable would be a step up for the traitors that have hugged up to Trump over America.

So...???

I guess there will be no conservative outrage over the Russian interference from those in public office. You know, the place where the line should be drawn first and be impeachable.

So why isn't it?

Now that Mr. Comey has said that there is no doubt that Russia attempted to interfere in the 2016 elections...

Are Republicans / Conservatives going to stand by America first for a change in the face of Russian interference in our elections?




May I ask a question? :)
If Coney dares to say there was no Russian interference - what would happen to him then? :)
I put aside his own motives which can separately be a desisive factor to claim tgere was Russian interference, but generally - can there be a situation a person of his level can state the opposite wihout being put under investigation himself - as minimum.? :)

Claiming that a superpower tried to interfere in an election that concerns their international interests is like claiming that there was offensive holding on a football play.

There is always offensive holding on every play. It is just a question of if the ref things it changed the play. In this case, it did not change the outcome. In fact, the primary thing that might have changed the outcome is actually Comey and his announcement just before the election. I find it fascinating that the exact same folks who wanted to lynch the guy in November are now singing his praises.
People sleep peacefully in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to visit violence on those who would do them harm.

So if Mr. Comey lied and denied the facts as this administration has done?

It would make him another conservative American that is putting his nation last.

A few things, first we have never seen this extent of interference or the weaponizing of that interference.

We have a number of administration officials that omitted (lied) about their contacts with agents of Russia.

We have a President along with his gaggle of sycophants that are denying Russian interference took place at all.


This has not been business as normal.

You put up another pathetic meme.

No less pathetic than conservatives not caring to protect American elections from Russian interference.

So when will conservatives put "America First" again?

Weaponize of interference? C2C, both our nation and Russia have previously used actual weapons to interfere in elections. We literally sponsored death squads. If that is not "weaponizing of interference" then I do not know what is.

Simply having your paid consultant (Tony Podesta) slip his brother (John Podesta) a contaminated file is certainly not weaponizing of interference. If anything it is just picking the low hanging fruit.

Yes weaponizing the leaks in an organized fashion that was used by conservative interests.

Putin approved, Putin useful.
