When can we move him (Mattis) into the White House? He seems like the only person in the admin who understands what is actually happening around him. #SituationalAwareness #StopTheChaos

When that happens, the same gas Russia pumps through the EU will be available enmasse to Asia via China. At that point, our position in Asia will be debatable. We'll always be a superpower based on our nukes. But we will be a customer, not a producer. Interesting times...

George that's not even close to my point. The word "hack" - in this case - has nothing to do with the electronic voting machines. It has more to do with hacking into DNC, RNC, personal accounts, forging materials, accessing compromising information and much more. It's more complex than most Americans think.

Somehow I don't see this being quiet the same non-issue, if the Russians had intervened on behalf of a President Hillary Clinton. Republicans would be demanding to know the exact extent of Russian interference and they would likely be questioning the validity of the election.

Because it is an issue, pretty easy answer there. You're also trying to cross the interdimensional "What if" statement which is meant more for diversion than actually getting to the problem. Mattis would get to the real problem, hence the post.

SFC Chad Sowash - The attitude I perceive among the right is that it's not an issue since Trump won the election. Some of those same people were discussing 2nd Amendment solutions if they lost. The problem is that the issue isn't being properly investigated because it threatens to further delegitimize the Trump presidency in the minds of millions of Americans.
