The nonchalant attitude for that among some people is baffling to me. And what they did was a lot more than the email hacking. They manufactured and disseminated fake news (legitimate fake news, not what MAGA social media calls fake news) and utilized polling data to target specific areas with the information in an effort to sway voters.
No it isn’t.
Altering votes is an attack on our sovereignty. All that was done was DNC and Podesta emails were released to just confirm what everyone thought about Clinton and the dems anyway..... they were corrupt.
Should we be concerned about this? Yes. But beyond the dnc and John Podesta getting some cyber security there isn’t much to any of this....
Trying to play this up is just more nonsense. Obama targeted Bibi during his election by finding and supporting his opponent. Obama also tapped the phones of Angela Merkel and her staff. None of these things makes the Russian’s role acceptable, but it does show that this stuff is common and should just be taken as such.
