BTW, The USA has interfered 81 times in foreign elections

Its like the kettle calling the pot black. It does not make it right, but all Countries that are capable try to influence another Country's elections. After all, wasn't Hillary and company always seemed to want to go to war with Russia? Now, Russia is a real potential foe, they are not a bunch of amateurs wildly shooting their AK's. Maybe Russia wanted Trump to win because they realized they could get along with the guy ?

you are allowed to call to pot black in geopolitics, it is part of the game. You are NOT allowed to let your adversaries walk all over you, for any reason at any time.

Spoiled ? Perhaps/Yes, but ...

He has done more good in the shortest period of time then any President I can remember ... One critic said Trump does good deeds but speaks badly vs the usual USA President ... Speaks eloquently but is as effective as mammary glands on a bull. Which would you rather have ?

Well, lets look at what he's done.
The stock market is up. Under Obama the stock market hit 56 all time highs.
Unemployment is down. In Obama's last day in office Unemployment was at 4.7%, today it's at 4.0%. Trump has gotten the unemployment rate to move .7%. Obama got it to move over 5.2%
Taxes were cut. Thats a good thing, but I think you should give House and Senate Republicans most of the credit for that. They developed the plan and Trump signed it.
So what else you got?
I'm no fan of Obama' and much of this is cyclical.
So, when you say Trump is effective, what exactly do you mean? Has he brought American's together? Has he reduced federal spending? Are we safer in the world? Have wages gone up for average Americans....what exactly do you mean?

Who ever thunk that the town of Clemson would become kinda' ... yuppy ! Like there are lots of GOOD jobs in the area now ... it goes on and on

He won’t be president forever. I think the idea is to come to terms with Russia and some of their agendas. Putin’s just a cobble in the road.

He was so good at pointing out the negative things that US was guilty of when negotiating with the Soviets, to make sure they never felt too much negativity.

These are likely the exact same people who chastised Obama for the "apology tour".
People are actually saying that our President ought not to be concerned with Russia trying to influence US elections because the US played some level of influence in other countries in the past. It's shear lunacy.

How's That ?

I think Russia's problem is that they got caught ! Again, whatever Russia did DID NOT change a vote ! What they did was unearth yet more dirt on Hillary. Again, if the dems put up ANYBODY besides Hillary they would have won, but for some reason was Hillary was the ordained one.

I have to agree with you there. Hillary did as much to help Trump get elected as Trump.

I couldn't agree more.
Shear lunacy is way worse than just regular lunacy.

Didn’t like when Obama did it, didn’t like when Trump just did it. I’m not going to go so far as to say it was treasonous (there’s enough hyperbole floating around already), but it was weak and unpatriotic.
You might think the US intelligence community is a bunch of rat bastids, but they’re OUR rat bastids. You side with your country first when you’re the leader.

More like irony.
The thing that you seem to be not aware of or willingly ignorant of is that we have absolutely railroaded foreign elections. Furthermore, we have funded and directed the overthrowing of elected governments. It sounds like youare actually under the impression that people are trying to draw similarities between lesser American meddling with greater Russian meddling. Quite the contrary, we have done far, far worse when it comes to manipulating other people‘s political processes. Like exponential.
Look no further than the Ukraine. That was a coup.

No one on the right is saying it's okay for Russia to rig an election. It is okay in my opinion for any source to notify the American Government and the world at large of corruption in US politics. Let the light shine on any corrupt American political figure or bureaucrats no matter the source.Let the people be informed and let the people decide.
