Two recent articles explain http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/comey-tried-to-reveal-russian-plot-before-election/ar-BBz1IS3?li=BBnbcA1 and https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2016/12/why-didnt-obama-reveal-intel-about-russias-influence-on-the-election/510242/ Recall, Obama wanted to make a bi-partisan announcement but McConnell refused: http://www.politicususa.com/2016/12/09/treasonous-mitch-mcconnell-refused-oppose-russia-election-meddling-trump.html |
Because the investigation was ongoing and if Obama had done that republicans would have accused him of fixing the election to Hillary's benefit. He had to let it play out this way. |
Oh, Please. They played right into the Russian's hand. Do you really think they were in collusion? Their purpose was to sow seeds of dissent in the US. They have succeeded in their mission--probably beyond expectations thanks to the "Resist" movement. |
Obama spied on trump plain and simple. Just like Nixon spying on the DNC. |
LOL, so we're supposed to accept the president that Russia picked out for us in the interest of not dissenting? |
You seriously think there wasn't collusion? |
Alternative fact. |
Yes. No collusion. Again, the Russian's purpose is to sow dissent. They succeeded. They did not expect Trump to win--they were trying to marginalize HRC. Read the Intelligence Report that was released in January. It makes perfect sense. As far as talking to the Russians, that goes on all the time. Press made a big deal about Sessions speaking to the ambassador--but he spoke to something like 25 ambassadors last year. Nothing burger. |
Yep. Sessions spoke to lots of ambassadors?. He only denied speaking to one. Same with Kushner. They only lied about not speaking to the Russian ambassador. |
Its like Hillary have not done anything to tip the scales of election. You are funny. |
Interesting that this subject is already 23 pages long. If there were absolutely nothing there, I don't think people would be asking questions. |
I have a question: Does Susan Rice normally speak in double negatives? Somehow, I don't think so. |
No, it's not interesting that this nonsense thread is so long. There are more important things happening, but the right is distracted from everything by Susan Rice OMG. Shiny. |
It's obvious Rice was caught lying. It seems Trump was right after all. Considering how he abused his power with the DOJ this is no surprise. Sounds like it's going to get worse for Obama. I'm sure he's not happy with Rice at this point. |
Obviously Obama was the reason that Flynn lied about speaking with the Russian ambassador, the reason that Sessions lied about meeting with the Russian ambassador, the reason that Nunes started acting so bizarrely. Etc. |
