Failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton went after President Donald Trump today, accusing him of inaction regarding the looming threat of Russia and their insistence on interfering in our elections.

The remarks came via a tweet, in which she also linked to a story by The Washington Post that quotes Admiral Michael S. Rogers, the commander of the U.S. Cyber Command, saying that the president has given him no instructions to go after Russian cyber-threats.

Clinton cited her time as Secretary of State as proof of her expertise on the matter.

“I say this as a former Secretary of State and as an American: the Russians are still coming,” she wrote. “Our intelligence professionals are imploring Trump to act. Will he continue to ignore & surrender, or protect our country?”

1. Actively engaged in treason right out in the open.

But he could have russian soldiers take over an American military post and his supporters would not care.

Those 60 million disgusting piles of SHIT dont care what he does.

2. Answer: Ignore and surrender. (Oh wait, was that a rhetorical question?)

3. Madame Clinton,

I have never doubted your loyalty to the US, nor you abilities and knowledge to make a difference. Next time around, listen to your patriotic, but financially challenged advisers, imo.

[murielm99]

17. WTF?

What does you post even MEAN?

[saidsimplesimon]

20. muriel,

First up, I have close ties to the midwest. Are you the spokeperson for those who support Eric Holder, President and Mrs. Obama and a Democratic Party united to defeat rump and his sycophants in 2018?

24. "Next time around, listen to your patriotic, but financially challenged advisers, imo."

What are you even talking about?

[saidsimplesimon]

25. Mrs. Clinton

Followed the money, imo. Money talks and BS walks, old cliche. This was a billion dollar campaign, money was betting on the Russians.

[emulatorloo]

27. It is Secretary Clinton to you. Your tinfoil hat seems a bit tight.

[saidsimplesimon]

28. thank you emula

I often need both an attitude and hairdo upgrade.

[emulatorloo]

29. ...

[Cha]

30. Yeah, I still don't know what sss is talking

about.

[mcar]

34. I'm not getting it either, Cha

[Hermit-The-Prog]

35. just say no

Might be the broadcast frequency of the message is too high for human ears. Or terran.

My first thought was that it was yet another attempt to blame the woman who won the most votes for not winning the covertly damaged, usurped, illegitimate election. Two or three readings later, I still ain't got no clue wtf it is. The only mind-altering substance I have on hand is some Jack Daniels, and I don't want to waste it on trying to decipher that message.

[mcar]

33. What are you talking about?

[dalton99a]

4. The GOP is holding the door open for them.

[riversedge]

5. Hillary is egging him on.. Note the question!

23. Thank you riversedge,

Yes Mrs. Clinton, what can I do to stop these thugs? I would appreciate your leadership regarding counter cyber attacks against that vile, most ugly man in the Kremlin.

6. This Inaction By Trump Is Intentional.....

Yesterday he launched his 2020 re-election bid. Hell - he's been campaigning since he took office. His Party of Repugs won't push him on his inaction because both Trump and the Repugs have a common interest. They want Russia to interfere in 2018 and 2020 because they want to retain their power base.

They are aiding and abetting the enemy in this cyberwar. In my opinion - this is treason.

[NewJeffCT]

7. He's not surrendering

that's part of his plan with Putin.

[Fred Sanders]

8. Russia First! Making Russia Great Again! It is remarkably obvious, with evidence and everything.

[Botany]

9. it was treason and we had a coup

[OhNo-Really]

12. Military Oath - Obey President. What a mess

a) Enlistment Oath.— Each person enlisting in an armed force shall take the following oath:
"I, (state name of enlistee), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God."

Have we been checkmated?

[ehrnst]

10. She warned us in 2016.

She was the only one who warned us.

[BigmanPigman]

32. She was warning us on live TV during the debate and no one

took her very seriously. I AM FRUSTRATED over this, can you imagine how she feels!

[C Moon]

11. Trump needs time to work the details out with Putin.

[hotrod0808]

13. "Failed Presidential Candidate"?!?

It begins with a pointed shot, then makes her look hysterical. Can't rec, because I don't much care for an article that makes a popular vote champion who lost due to Russian interference and intense media bias look like an utter disaster.

[ehrnst]

15. Never changes. (nt)

[flibbitygiblets]

18. Hear hear

Given that SHE herself was invited to be hacked by the same forces who turned her into a "failed candidate", the wording is quite galling.

[LisaM]

19. Yes, thanks for pointing that out.

I noticed it right away too.

[Cha]

22. Hillary is the Robbed presidential candidate.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

36. same here

[Hulk]

14. Dont bother us with reality, Hillary.

We are too fixated on the next insane vomit that comes out of this pig’s mouth to be concerned with the incoming sunami that is rolling into our democracy.

Every pundit is too busy talking about the latest insane garbage that pops out of the orange Mussolini’s pie hole. No extra moments to spare on the upcoming elections the Russians are focused on.

Nation of morons. We are getting ONLY what we deserve. “Quick! Look at that shiny thing over there!...idiots.”

[duforsure]

16. When you're compromised

you have no choice but to continue trying to help Putin's agenda.

[Cha]

21. Good, Hillary! I call Bullshite on the "Failed"

presidential candidate, though.

The Russians stole it for trump.. Hillary is the Robbed Presidential Candidate.

Fixed it.

26. not to be glib but I smell bumper sticker:

"Russians Are still Coming"

so far, unfortunately.

[Gothmog]

31. Trump is pretending that this problem does not exist

[Witch Hunter]

37. Despite of his refusals the problem still exists
