I'm afraid that we are losing sight of what really happened in the lead up to the Presidential Election. A foreign government attempted to meddle in our election. This has been the conclusion of 12 of our intelligence agencies and they point the finger squarely at Putin. This is huge and should be the major concern of all citizens in this country. Please put your thoughts about what political party you think is right and follow my take on this.
I think that Putin had no idea that Trump would win the Presidency and that Clinton was the real target. I think that the real goal was to weaken the expected Clinton Presidency with scandals and investigations and the political unrest of the Trump supporters. The big win by the GOP in the House and Senate would have further ensured that a Clinton Presidency would be chaotic. When Trump won, Putin had to reset and Trump's erratic behavior as President has kept Putin dancing to keep up.
Where did the intell on Russia come from? Four Russian Cyber experts are on trial for treason for passing info to the CIA. The trial is being held in secret so information is sketchy but this might be where our intell came from.
