Straight from the ICA Source:

Today, the US Senate Select Committee on Intelligence released their overall judgments issued in the ICA and found they were "well-supported and the tradecraft was strong."

It's becoming harder and harder to deny that Russia influenced the 2016 US election to hurt Hillary Clinton and help Donald Trump, unless you dispute the validity of the intelligence committee assessment and/or the Republican-led US Senate Select Committee on Intelligence's findings.

Youre beyond the realm of logic. Youll make whatever conclusion you want to make at this point because you have so much invested in it

Putin chose whatever he thought would cause the most chaos. He had no personal stake in Trump winning. Trump has put countless sanctions on Russia as a result. If Putin did want Trump to win, it definitely didn't pay off for Putin

Right now you are Putin's useful idiot and you will be so long as you use this as a wedge issue instead of a learning experience

ICA: "We further assess Putin and the Russian government developed a clear preference for President-elect Trump."

Senate Intelligence Committee: "The Committee has spent the last 16 months reviewing the sources, tradecraft and analytic work underpinning the Intelligence Community Assessment and sees no reason to dispute the conclusions."

IF Russia did meddle with the election (via social media), then the American people have only themselves to blame for falling for it.

Not to mention the fact, that knowledge Russia meddled was made public 6 months ago. Remember social media giants getting yelled at by Congress, and having to have proof of who buys ads or makes accounts now.
I just love how ya all make it sound like this is new info.

What is your point. We both just said the same thing

How do you say that with a straight face... why were putin's oligarchs (plural) at Trumps inauguration events/fundraisers then?... please help me understand... any "sanctions" trump put on russia were not trump's merit, external forces put pressure in trump to act tough on russia...

False. Putin had a clear preference for President-elect Trump based on the ICA and Senate Intelligence Committee's reports.



Everyone grab hold of some monkey bars and climb aboard the 23D mental gymnastics of the Russian meddling defense of Trump supporters:

Fake news, Russia didn't meddle in our election -> Maybe Russia meddled, but they didn't pick favorites, they just wanted chaos -> Maybe Russia meddled to hurt Clinton, but not necessarily because they wanted to help Trump -> Okay, Russia meddled to help Trump, but who cares? That's old news (YOU ARE HERE) -> Russian meddling in our election is actually a good thing, it helped elect Trump

I said all that in posts #3 and #6. I'm positive this EndlessSky guy is just a devil's advocate type troll and only believes 50% of the stuff he posts.

Youre infantile and at this point youre not even reading my posts

This has been known for two years and youve only found a pattern, not the motive and definitely not collusion



So mad

Weirdly reminiscent of the global warming playbook

Global warming isn't real > Okay, it's real, but it's not caused by people > okay, it's caused by people, but it's good! > okay, it's probably not going to be good, but it's not like we can do anything about it > contd.



AND HE STICKS THE LANDING! WE HAVE A NEW MENTAL GYMNASTICS GOLD MEDALIST!
