    The email related coverage was due to the crimes Hillary committed while Secretary of State, you can't blame anyone but her for that.....and certainly not the Russians.

    Obviously you are confused.... confused about 50 years of bad relations (something called the "Cold War" you might have heard about), war crimes/genocide against thousands, attacking a sovereign nation, trying dismantling NATO (the only thing keeping the US from being attacked by a North Korea OR RUSSIA), Costing the US millions in assets to fight against their cyber crime activity, and potentially losing billions in our economy through the stealing of IP from our US based companies. Something that is a real issue that hardly anyone talks about. China is maybe worse about IP theft, but Russia is right there.

    So what's the "actual issue" you want to discuss here? Oh.... you are obviously new to Russia and think that our relationship with them is only about the Dems being pissed because Wikileaks (an arm of Russian intelligence) helped to try and disrupt our election.

    Not sure there is a comparison from Russia vs. Democratic insider politics, but as far as the election of 2016 goes.... yeah the Democrats might very well have lost the election because they didn't seriously allow for true competition for their primary candidate so the American electorate could choose freely.

    But you are naïve as hell if you think the GOP didn't try like hell to swing the Rep. nomination to anyone but Trump. It shows that disruption can affect the establishment, and that our process of democratic elections still has some legitimacy even if the American people have shown that they need more geopolitical education & that electoral college makes the election non-representative of the entire country and instead the election only focuses on swing state issues.

    The fact is Bernie didn't disrupt his party as much as Trump did by far, and the Democrats faced a loss because they didn't give the likely better candidate a legit chance to win the presidency.

    Also the REPUBLICAN ESTABLISHMENT (including right wing news like Fox) was a big part of the win too because of their attack dog dirty politics they played for years on smearing Hillary's name through the mud. This shows that the Right Wing dirty politics still work, and if you hammer something over and over and over with the American people they will start to believe it. Trump benefited from being aligned with an attack dog party & media support that aligned with his brash personality even though he's not a real Republican & he's not who they wanted by far.

    But the Democratic party is not the enemy that You and others on the Right seem to think they are to America. If you are siding with Russia over them than I truly am petrified that we are headed for another (probably cold) Civil War if the Right is putting the Democrats on the same line of thinking as Putin and Russia.... a nation that currently has nuclear warheads pointed towards our country and possibly your home town. Democrats are Americans man. They are not the enemy.

    I didn't see the "I think the whole thing is BS" option but as a person who voted for Trump, I would support impeachment if in fact he broke the law. I still haven't seen anything to make me think this isn't utter BS. It does do a good job of keeping the liberal base pissed off so I guess it is achieving the desired goal. Funny that most of the people who ignored Hillary's crimes instead bashing the way they were disclosed are trying their damnedest to connect dots that just don't exist and now have no problem at all with illegally leaked information even if it is coming from within our own government.

    So there's $100 million of Russian tied investment in Trump's business alone in South Florida.

    But still no mention of spies.
