It's absolutely astounding that people are trying to discredit this simply because they supported Trump.

Get over yourself. It doesn't fucking matter who you supported. Leave your bloody, stupid party politics at the door.

The important thing is that a foreign country was taking covert and illegal actions to influence the election of the President of the United States. That cannot be allowed. It helped your candidate get elected so you're alright with it? Grow up. It could very well be reversed next time. No one should ever be alright with that, regardless of who won.

This needs to be taken seriously in Washington--and I assume it will be taken seriously, as I'm sure the CIA is aware that this is more important than just the Trump and Clinton Show.

I also would like to add that steps should be taken to tighten security oversight and implement tougher punishments for cases like the Hilary Clinton and Colin Powell email screw-ups.

i guess we got a lot more out of this election than just a bunch of anti-trump protests.

 

Highly surprised Russia was even able to bring some sort of influence.
