All Russian hacking talk is strictly non-election rigging stuff right? As in they selectively hacked and leaked info, but didn't engage in actual vote manipulation to directly affect the outcome.
This is a key point. Actual vote-count affecting hacking is worthy of thorough investigations. Luckily we've seen no evidence of that so far.
Russians throwing their voice into the cacophonous noise of an election...meh, so what? Is there something inherently threatening about Russian fake news than say, John Harwood's fake news?
But all of this talk has a sub-text of elitism that is so typical of the left. "Voters are too stupid and easily swayed by Russian propaganda...therefore we must discredit or possibly overturn the election, because we're smart and the sheeple are dumb." Well, remember the videos circulating of the Obama voters who thought dumb things (he's gonna pay my rent...from his 'stash')? Did even one Republican suggest we need to get information to the electoral college about how so many Obama voters got misinformed in '08?
This whole line of thinking is poisonous. Democrat projection ("Republicans won't accept legitimate election results! Horrors!") all over again.
So, the Russians hacked the DNC and the RNC. They only aired the DNC's dirty laundry. Trump is going to nominate Rex Tillerson as Secretary of State.
You're saying all of this doesn't bother you, am I getting that right?
So they aired the DNC's dirty laundry that was in October and Dems didn't seem to care then. Why care now? Because they lost the election that's why.
I am not for the Tillerson nomination but Trump is the President-Elect he can nominate who he wants for Secretary Of State.
