Thread: Trump Acknowledges Russian Election ‘Meddling’ in Tweet Criticizing Obama

No, he is not "acknowledging" .... he's saying if the INTEL report is true and there was something to be done, why didn't Obama do something BEFORE the election? The election is over. There won't be another one for 4 years. What do you want Trump to do? Hunt down Russians with a computer and lock 'em all up for the next 4 years? Obama told Putin to "cut it out". Putin said "we didn't do it."

So there you have it. A Mexican Stand-Off in US-Russia Relations over an "INTEL" report that no one can verify. Sanctions against Russia with no proof and no harm if you had it. Senate raises the bar to make sure the sanctions based on unverified INTEL accounts or alleged actions that caused no harm are invoked by law so a wiser President can't undo what shouldn't have been done to begin with. Sigh. The decline of justice, the disappearance of innocent until proven guilty. The tragic signs of the moral decay of a nation, weakened by its own impotence of character and the hysteria of self-righteousness. Just more INTEL instigated politically-motivated phony red lines for the threatened to cross and test our will over ... nothing burgers.

"SAD!"

You know, I want that person "deep inside the Kremlin" pulled out of service and brought home to the United States to testify at an open Congressional hearing about their engagement with the Russians. We need to know who they are, what they were doing in Moscow, what is their nationality, why did they feel compelled to report this purported conversation as INTEL to the United States and what are they up to. The CIA is supposed to be involved in operations overseas, not involve itself in our domestic affairs.
