President Obama personally warned Putin about interfering with the election

[philosslayer]

He told him to "cut it out." And at his news conference yesterday promised that there will be consequences. A "clear message will be sent".

I think Putin should be and probably is defecating stone building materials at the thought of what President Obama will do now.

DUs best guesses?

1. You tell us ... eom

3. I would think some pretty severe sanctions are planned

Perhaps the dissolution of some oil contracts. I don't know all the levers available to President Obama, but I'm confident that in the last days of his administration he will make Putin regret ever messing with a US election.

5. Which can all be overturned once Trump becomes president.

6. Kill that joint space program

Humans on the space station don't seem like the highest priority to me.
Thanks for your answer.

2. Yea, I am sure Putin is really scared considering Obama has about a month remaining in office and

then Trump becomes president.

8. We have to stand in stark contrast to people who are normalizing this hacking of out institutions.

We must do this. Rolling over is not an option.

Suspending the constitution or overturning the election results is not.

4. Perhaps the impeachment of Putin's candidate?

It will be an embarrassment.

I thought Obama's Presser was pretty clear to the rest of us. You elected these people after giving me shit for eight years. Now you get to reap the whirlwind.

In the end it's up to the individual voter to believe BS or not to. BS won this time around.

7. Start some Justice Dept actions on his open issues before "inauguration day"

Appoint a special prosecutor then dare Fat Bastard to fire the prosecutor.

Cancel the visas of dozens of Putin's diplomats in Washington.
Somebody get an IRS agent to print Fat Bastard's tax records.
