I love how almost everyone here missed the point. Trump hasn’t given anything of substance to Russia, there has been substantive legislation passed to tackle the foreign meddling in elections issue, and nobody is denying the possibility (or probability) that Trump & Co. collaborated with Russia to some extent in the 2016 election. The issues are (a) how fanatical Democrats are getting about this and particularly as a campaign issue, (b) that fanaticism could have dangerous long-term consequences to global politics and international relations, (c) it’s the state’s that are failing to act to safeguard our elections and Democrats are focused more on the rhetoric of this issue than substantively addressing it, and (d) this is not a winning issue that Democrats think it is.
Of course, the standard Liberals on this site will automatically turn to the bs you’d expect, like: “you’re defending a dictator,” “you’re secretly defending Trump,” “you don’t care about America,” blah blah blah. It’s the same nationalistic schtick roles out every time a group wants to beat the drums and create an “us vs them” situation. Now that they think this is a winning issue, Liberals are perfectly happy to play the same card just a decade ago they bashed the Neoconservatives in the Bush Administration and GOP for doing.
So Dems are doing long term damage to global politics for being upset over Russia did not not Russia for doing said thing in the first place? Also we have no idea what Trump gave Russia because they had a secret meeting
