Hillary said tonight what many of us have been saying here for a long time [View all]

It doesn't matter if we nominate the most charismatic, best prepared, most perfect candidate ever...as long as the Russian interference isn't dealt with, they will get away with stealing the election again.

She added that if anything, the Russians are now better prepared to interfere in 2020. This is the most important issue and the biggest obstacle we're facing. I believe all the candidate should join forces to deal with this problem, or else, 2020 will be a loss to us.

If I were to vote in a presidential
