How Putin Weaponized Wikileaks to Influence the Election of a President

[SassySue]

If this isn't corruption, I don't know what is. On top of that, the fact that Donald Trump is tight with Putin, is downright frightening.

But leave aside the purported content of the Wikileaks data dump (to which numerous other outlets have devoted considerable attention) and consider the source. Considerable evidence shows that the Wikileaks dump was an orchestrated act by the Russian government, working through proxies, to undermine Hillary Clinton’s Presidential campaign.

Typical liberal response.

What does that have to do with anything? Putin is exerting more and more power over Russia and is moving toward a totalitarian type government. Brexit is moving in the same direction, with extreme right wing leaders and they have left the European Union. Trump also thinks we should leave NATO. Brexit is excited about Trump and so is Putin. These leaders are all extreme right wing or authoritarian type leaders. Get it? It would be the end of democracy as we know it. See this article:

If the ‘Brexit’ side wins, so do Trump and Putin

Trump will likely call these developments proof that the U.S.’ 67-year old commitment to NATO, backed up by 67 years of investments, has gone bad, and that Clinton mismanaged U.S.-European relations. In fact, if Brexit pulls Britain out of the EU-wide defense policy and weakens EU security plans, those developments will enhance NATO’s role and importance, especially as a bulwark to Russian President Vladimir Putin’s ambitions to weaken European resolve, and sow trouble between the U.S. and its most important allies.

The downside for Trump in using Brexit as evidence of his own canniness is that his criticisms line up pretty closely with Putin’s. They both say that the multilateral trade agreements of the last half-century have undermined the traditional economic arrangements they favor. They both also see Muslims as threats to the values and order they have each sworn to restore.

On NATO and the U.S.-European alliance, Trump’s views also align more closely with Putin than with U.S. strategy under every president since World War II. And why not — after all, Trump and Putin are equally committed to “Make America (or Russia) Great Again.”

Not really. Just thinking about the possible implications. I do agree that we get ourselves involved too much in other countries' disputes. However, pulling out of NATO completely is not a good idea. Trump keeps insinuating it's a good idea. That's exactly what Putin wants. Also, Trump has no hesitation about using nuclear weapons, which has very serious consequences. Trump and Putin are too much alike; if they combine forces toward the rest of the world, the consequences could be dire.

Donald Trump’s Terrifying Views On Nuclear Weapons


Arguably worse than his claims of resigned acceptance to the spread of nuclear weapons has been his active support of the further development of such weapons, as well as multiple statements suggesting how he would consider using them. In the same interview with the New York Times Editorial Board, Trump claimed that the U.S. “may very well be better off” if allied countries, like Japan, South Korea and Saudi Arabia, developed nuclear weapons. And in a televised town hall on MSNBC, Trump wouldn’t rule out using nuclear weapons in Europe, saying, “I’m not going to take it off the table.” This followed an interview the week before with Bloomberg Politics, where he hinted at the possibility of using nuclear weapons against the Islamic State.

This smells like ....

... the Great Right-wing Conspiracy by which Bill was accused of getting a "fictitious blow job" in the Oral Office .....

... This is the stuff of brain injuries.

This is the type of hysteria one will endure with a Hillary Clinton Presidency!

Another "Video" tale!!!! How insulting that she would think voters will believe it.

When will you all wake up and "smell the coffee"! This woman is pathological!

Can you all remember the criticisms last week of the inability to run a convention? Or is that getting lost in the euphoria of the thought of having the "first woman" as POTUS .... At least get one with a whole brain remaining!

It's been confirmed the information was hacked by the Russian government. Information was obtained about Clinton's campaign, as well as Trump's.

In late April, the DNC's IT department noticed some suspicious behavior and contacted DNC chief executive officer Amy Dacey, according to a DNC official. Dacey reached out to DNC lawyer Michael Sussmann, a partner at the Perkins Coie law firm and a former federal prosecutor specializing in cybercrimes. Sussmann called Shawn Henry, the president of cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike, to get his company's help. Within 24 hours of the first signals that something was amiss, CrowdStrike was brought in to install monitoring software to analyze the details of who was responsible. The DNC has also been in contact with the FBI since the hack was discovered.

Nobody is saying it didn't happen. It's your constant hyping of the Trump collusion conspiracy theory that makes you look like a tin foil kook.
