    Start a thread, this one is about the GOP drinking from the ruble fountain and turning a blind eye to RUssia's influence in the 2016 election to help tRUmp win.

    Yeah....you'd think globalists would welcome input from other nations. Even Russia.

    You want to discuss Russians pouring money into a US presidential candidate? So do I!
    Go tell the Supreme Court you don't like their Citizens United decision..see what happens.

    The same Russia-friendly Republicans used underhanded tricks to stack the Court with an individual who agrees with their quisling tendencies.

    Soros is a foreign national, I don't see you folks ever complaining about him. Bunch of hypocrites, but I'd expect no less...

    You forget to mention how exactly Russian influence won the election for Trump.

    I'd love to hear a detailed explanation.

    Russia is indeed our enemy even if you choose to bury your head in the sand and ignore that fact. Russia is involved in an economic and political war with us and our European and Asian allies. Russia may appear to have parallel interests but do not delude yourself they spent a million times the energy to prop up Assad than to fight ISIS. Russia let pro ISIS and pro Taliban and other terrorist fighters cross out of Russia to fight in the middle east many in Syria. Russia spent a hell of a lot of time energy and resources fighting against the enemies of Assad than they did against ISIS. ISIS was defeated by the Kurds, IRqies, and with healthy support from us especially Spec OPS, CIA and other " special" operators.
    Russia spent their resources fighting Assad's opposition and helping Assad recapture territory.

    Your are really fooling yourself if you think that Russia is not our enemy. SAD,!

    LOL...John Roberts was nominated, quizzed by the Senate and confirmed just like any other Supreme Court justice you care to name.

    Go wipe your tears up with your little hanky. You only want democrat quislings to be able to shovel money into their politician's open pockets
    don't you?

    So much information is freely out there for you to source and addition the the unanimous IC agreement. In addition there has to be evidence of a crime for a SC, like Mueller, to be appointed so...........just wait and see. The current GOP congress is corrupted with rubles.

    Sorry you don't want to agree with what every agency says. Yes propaganda has a huge influence. They strategically targeted the swing states

    "Every agency" can no more explain how this particular propaganda, aside from any other that saturated the public throughout the nation, won an impossible victory over yuge odds!

    But you keep on drinking the Kool Aid, though. It does so much for your credibility.

    Those were my thoughts exactly as I read the OP.

    Yes, the "evil Russian" has dual citizenship. I caught that as well. Having American citizenship, I think it's fair to assume he may have a vested interest in the future of the United States also.

    Yes. From the article "Ukrainian-born billionaire Leonard Blavatnik, who holds dual American and British citizenship".

    Yes, that would be interesting to know.

    Are you saying enough Hillary voters were so weak in their convictions or so uninformed about the candidates, that all it took was some Facebook propaganda to flip their vote to Trump and give him the win?
