You and I as Human beings know that the Left doesn't like Putin so it would be logical that they would somehow meddle into his re-election bid. You can deny it, that's fine, but I'm a little bit more of a realist to understand that we will mettle where ever it suits the current administration.
You're the one that can't seem to understand turnabout is fair play.
And we have no idea who started it first, but it just keeps on going and going. So there is that.
IF the IC report is so damning, then why didn't Obama step in while he had a chance?
Because
A) He thought Hillary would win anyways
B) He thought Hillary would win anyways
C) He thought Hillary would win anyways
D) Not enough there to really make much of a case against Russian interference in the elections.
I applaud your efforts, here, and accept them as an admission that you were talking out of your ass. Keep on building that strawman.
And what was that thing about Obama and expelling Russian diplomats that I seem to remember? There was enough evidence for the entire IC to acknowledge interference. But, therr is not enough evidence to say it had a deciding impact and there was not evidence at that time of collusion between Americans and the Russian state. Because of that, the appropriate, measured actions were taken by Obama.
