You never hear the REP asking the DEMs about that when they are saying it is very wrong for countries or Russia to meddle.... but, no one mentions last WH and Israel. We do it to our allies...

No election meddling is nothing new. Remember President Obama meddling in the Israeli election? However, what is new is the unceasing hysteria and petulance over losing an election in America. It's gone on for more than a year now and shows no signs of stopping. It's time to act like adults, like Americans, and get on with life... (And don't give me crap about "Oh, you guys were carping about President Obama's win for eight years." BS! We accepted it from day one. Then we exercised our right of criticizing the endless litany of executive mistakes that followed, just as we'll carp about all of President Trump's mistakes (and yes, he's made some) There's a difference...

It's possible that all this action by Russia using Facebook accounts and unwittingly using conservatives to push their agenda may have made a minor difference in the state of Florida which was a key. I think the comedians got it right though in this Saturday Night Live skit. I know you don't like Saturday Night Live but this skit hits it right on the head.https://youtu.be/dF_BFfCpH8E

Really boggles my mind how many people just don't give a shit about the security of our democracy. "Its always happened" and "Oh well we've done it before" are not acceptable answers.

yep. because if we did something about it this time... people might actually try to do something about it another time. the rich people who influence elections here don't want to see strong action taken against other rich people who influence elections
