This was entertaining to listen to during the House Intel Chair Devin Nunes news conference over Russian interference with the US and alleged AG Sessions' connections to Russians outside of his duties as a member of the Armed Services Committee. The alt-left media loves to crucify anyone on the right who has spoken with, walked by or been in the same room as Russians over their conspiracy theory Russia caused Hillary to lose the 2016 election.
Regardless of the fact the FBI said there is nothing there and Nunes expressed the same isn't enough for the media.
So as they pushed the issue of investigation Nunes pushed back making it clear they better "be careful what you ask for" as the alt-left media will be under investigation too!
If repubs and Trump admin officials are going to automatically condemned for speaking with Russians in private or work related then the same does apply to the left! Go ahead libs push it because the NSA already has your phone calls, texts and emails it would be a shame if that info started leaking out!
While it is a punch in the gut to Trump, if the Russian's in fact influenced the election, why did Hillary win the popular vote? Now many of you will say there was rampant voter fraud and the like but you should really drop that that argument. By acknowledging Hillary's won the popular vote it proves all the noise the left is making about Russia is just that, noise.
The left cannot accept they ran the worst candidate possible who stood for everything the American people in states that mattered opposed. She thought she had the election won with the media, Hollywood, pollsters in her back pocket so much so she didn't even campaign in many states! We've all been saying it for well over a year and many who were not on the TrumpTrain, feeling very concerned about him being the GOP candidate at the time, even pointed out:
"This should be the easiest election for the GOP to win against the worst democrat candidate ever!"
C'mon Trump supporters you know it's true, you know you heard people who supported other GOP candidates say that when things weren't going too well. Let go of the voter fraud theories, it happened but not 3mil worth! Take the hit admitting this "win" for her to discredit and trivialize all the lefts wacky theories, especially that Russia influenced who you voted for!
The govt released it's intelligence hacking report about Russian interference with the election. A lot of reasons and strong arguments are made for sure but to be clear this cyber war has been going on for years. Why is it this admin did nothing for approx 10 years?
Kellyanne Conway nailed it by pointing out almost every govt agency was attacked but no concern or action was taking leading into 2016 election because the White House, Hillary and DNC thought she would win.
Also the DNC REFUSED to allow the FBI analyze their hacked servers!
There was no indication, nor evidence that voting machines were tampered with either. There are still no smoking guns proving Russia handed the election to Trump only claims they "influenced" the election.
Those in power on the left are in fact suggesting millions of people were on the fence as to who to vote for up until the Podesta and DNC emails were leaked which was enough to swing an election. The countless videos of Trump rallies with thousands if not tens of thousands in attendance vs few hundred or thousand(s) at Hillary rallies are dismissed. Their polls said she would win, polls which were proven to be total trash that probably covered blue states over red. Did Russia make Hillary have a private server that the FB was investigating? Did Russia make Anthony Weiner engage in sexting with minors which resulted in his devices being confiscated and analyzed to show there was info that was not handed over? Where is the proof that Russia handed the election to Trump?
There isn't any and here's why. The one fact, which is no secret, that destroys democrats argument, but honestly is a punch in the gut to Trump, is this....
If Russia had so much influence on the election then why did Hillary W I N the popular vote by 2.87m votes!? Who did Putin influence to vote for Trump if she got more votes!? Democrats, including celebs, parade around daily arguing "the majority spoke", declaring she won! Ok fine in this context yea she did, she got more votes which means there was NO influence on the voters. That said this issue and whining about Russia's involvement is over.
It's only because of Hillary's arrogance and dependence on the media to protect here while ignoring the flyover nation she lost the electoral college. Had Trump won the electoral AND popular vote, maybe democrats would have something to stand on. But facts are facts, people came out to vote, she was a horrible candidate who was running on more or less being obama's third term. I've listed a long list of reasons why she lost that dems refuse to accept. They want to hang on to this Russian boogeyman, they can, but from now on when dems whine about Russia swinging the election point out her popular vote win!
This nonsense that Russia hacked the election and influenced voters has to stop. Talk about fake news being pushed, this is all the obama stream networks are talking about. There is NO EVIDENCE whatsoever that Russia influenced the election or hacked voting machines yet the crap media continues with this bs. Furthermore it's insulting to voters and disenfranchises the genuine anger they had with this govt and how bad of a candidate Hillary Clinton was.
Podesta's emails being leaked did not make fly-over states come out and vote for Trump. A poor economy, lack of jobs, skyrocketing healthcare, terrorism on US soil, political correctness being rammed down our throats for a solid 8 years and so on are why Donald Trump was elected. The CRAP media pushing these Russian conspiracy theories are in fact just another example as to why Clinton lost as well! These people are so high and mighty they think they can create a boogie man to make excuses why their candidate lost expecting us to believe it if they tell it long enough!
The 5th column-msm needs to be knocked on their ass and put in their place. FTR we know the Russians are still the bad guys, but you idgets in the msm are giving them a run for the money for the title!
Let's assume it's 100% true, Russia did everything the left is in total meltdown over. The fact remains Hillary Clinton had poor ratings among democrat voters. NO ONE LIKES HER but hardcore progressive radicals, and the communists in Hollywood.
Russia DID NOT put a private server in Hillary's home, and then a bathroom closet off site, to conduct official govt business that compromised US national security.
Russia also did not make the FBI launch an investigation into her negligent handling of emails and govt documents, again we'll assume Russia DID expose it. This situation was bad the FBI is still investigating thanks to her aides, Huma Abedin, ex-husband to be Anthony Weiner.
Russia did not make Hillary use her position in the State Dept along with she and her husbands foundation as a front to launder money in a pay to play scam.
MOST IMPORTANTLY Russia did not make Hillary ignore middle America/ flyover states, where she had a Z E R O ground game but dumped millions in solid blue states to lock up the popular vote. Trump was at least flying to all these states to do 3 rallies a day.
Russia did not make Hillary call half the nation deplorable!
Russia did not make the crap media protect her at every opportunity from bad press, while they trashed Trump 24/7!
Russia did not force obamacare onto the nation where premiums doubled before this election.
Russia did not blame a video no one watched for the attack on Benghazi that left 4 Americans, one a US Ambassador, dead.
The list of Clinton faults goes on and on. Whatever the left wants to tie Russia to it was not enough to sway voters as most knew nothing about the majority of scandals let alone "Russia hacking the Clinton's and DNC".
Hillary Clinton lost the election because she was by far the worst, most corrupt presidential candidate in US history! She is disliked by almost everyone except the radical progressive elitists. She was a symbol.. she epitomized everything the American people hate about politicians and the govt!
Yes Josh, nobody in WH thought any of this is funny because you all know you're all dirty and feared Russia would expose your corruption! We the people don't think any of this is a joke but this regime suggesting Russia handed Trump the election is disingenuous. You are discrediting every single American who voted for Trump and suggesting they voted for him because of Russia's activities.
