Related: About this forumQUESTION: Is Russia going to do LESS hacking of our elections since MiniPoot is going to be prez?
I don't understand the attitude of dems in Washington right now,
If the election was hacked once at the state and local electoral level why in the hell wouldn't they just keep doing it?
Why in the word would someone like MiniPoot give up his golden Russian egg!?!?
Because someone in the intel agencies are going to rat him out!?
They already tried that and Comey ignored them... David Corn wrote about this in Mother Jones
Help me out here,
Thx in advance

(5,119 posts)In fact, I think we've only seen the beginning of this. I'm expecting dirt on the Rs to begin as soon as Congress blocks BLOTUS from dropping the sanctions, which he will no doubt try to do very early.
And someone should forcefully tell Mitch the Bitch, the hacking WILL continue and election hacking WILL happen again if we don't take steps.

(9,359 posts)The emails were embarrassing. The last thing we want to do is shine a light back on a hack that cost our DNC Chair her seat and cast an unflattering image on the party as a whole.
It's like attacking someone who took a video of you making out with the guy who just got done licking the dogs ass because everyone involved was drunk.

(9,359 posts)That's just basic truth. People are too concerned about their own day to day existence to worry about someone they will probably never know.

(2,559 posts)Now that Putin has his puppet in place, the puppet will start compromising American intelligence agencies, turn them towards domestic surveillance of anyone and everybody who has ever questioned, opposed, or mocked The Donald. The intelligence gathered will then be turned over to Putin's middlemen to be turned over to Assange for dissemination. It will make Nixon's enemies list and corruption of the IRS look like child's play.

(65,616 posts)Obama had 10 million more votes in 2008, maybe that was too much. However, have a divided group show up and have a close election. The potential is there imo.
I still don't get how 87k votes = 2.8 million. How that equalled a huge number of EC votes for one candidate. I admit it makes no sense to me.
Kinda like how we did away with official exit polling. You know me, I am always cause sometimes the shit reveals itself to be factual.

(30,481 posts)This has been positive for them. I expect other countries to interfere with our elections. We all should. We should also be under the expectation they will pay a price.

(17,587 posts)but I think they will target sites like this one. Sites that people use to organize against Trump. Sites that promote Democratic candidates in state elections.
