The hacks and targeted information leaks over the summer have been a real (and in some instances successful) attempt to influence or denigrate our election and democratic process.
Most of this stuff has been reported when it happened -- but there has been no focused response from the White House or State. Nor has Europe figured out the best way to respond to Russia's increasing activity in the past few years.
Trump has so far shown that he has no idea that any of this has been happening, nor does he care. But the rest of us have known for a while and do care. This will be his problem in a month. Do you want him to move closer to the country that has been physically attacking our diplomats and hacking our political parties and military?

You haven't been paying attention.
Trump's Russia problem began well before the hacks, with his bizarre praise of Putin, his hiring of Manafort and others with ties to the Putin regime, etc.
It's been clear for a long time that Trump is tied to Russia. The hacks are just another part of the trend.
Anyone who gives a damn about America should be concerned about the Trump-Putin connection.

Obama is a Russian mole.

If you do not have the intellectual capacity to understand the troubling fact of a foreign government hacking into US email--private, public, government, intelligence a gencies, as well as interference with US election process, then It is good that you can post as anonymous so that your name and absymal ignorance remain unknown.
