would freeze in place and not reveal the interference.
Shame on ALL Republicans.

Putin also understood that the uber-partisan Republican would bask in their interference if they were the beneficiaries.

There is probably much worse bullshit on them than what we got out of those pathetic Dem emails that were released.
Repubs are probably being blackmailed as we speak. Well, and bribed, of course.

(32,095 posts)6. And, the Cult of Trump is not only okay with the interference,
they are defending it. The stuff I have been reading on places like Facebook is mind-boggling. All of a sudden, the CIA is the bad guy, and what Russia did is okay because the US has interfered in other countries' elections in the past. A couple of gems:
Do you blame them for interfering with our elections? If Hillary would've won, Putin would've been getting dragged through the streets like Momar Gaddafi. "We came, we saw, he died" cackle cackle cackle)
...But to listen to the CIA is stupid. Point blank period.

There was no coup you stuuuupid fucks, the only accusations are coming from a government agency devoted to espionage.
The Idiocracy is here.

I hadn't run across any of that nonsense yet, but I am sure it is the usual suspects.
