IIRC somebody on this forum recently predicted this scenario (sorry, I don't remember who).

[Maxwell]

so, are people going to deny Russia is actively trying to manipulate this election to favor their useful idiot?

[dspNY]

This tells me that Russia/Wikileaks have nothing in the hacked/stolen DNC correspondence or Clinton campaign communication that can tilt the election towards Trump

Should we be concerned about the Russians going through with that threat?

We absolutely should not let them intimidate us. This is god damn outrageous.

It won't influence my vote, I'm talking more in terms of our foreign policy after the election.

And this should make us want to vote for Clinton even MORE!

Which in turn, means that they'll be something damning and fake dumped out the day before the election. (Assuming they don't just jump straight to YUGE false-flag terror attack.)

A nuclear strike from Russia will be certain nuclear retaliation from us.  They won't risk it.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

FYI this guy is a fringe lunatic who only allies with Putin for political expidency purposes. Also not the first time he's said things like this, in the past he's talked about "taking back" Alaska for example.

I say this with 100% sincerity: time to have the CIA poison a few drinks and arrange a few car wrecks. Putin goes first.

The tweet seemed likes if HRC is elected there will be nuclear war. It was not like we will nuke you, but like HRC winning means there will be war & Nuclear wars everywhere - Maybe Russia should go to war or maybe HRC will force war upon Russia, could be looked at either way but the nuclear comment was horrible!

I think HRC will bring WW 3 with her idiotic No Fly Zone & constant bailing of Russia!

This Zhiri guy is not even from Putin's party & he has a habit of making ridiculous statements like the Philippines statement. Every country has Trump type ridiculous politicians who make stupid statements!

You can't comments from nutjobs seriously! And this guy has no political power!

The comments from HRC fans are honestly ridiculous!

And you Sanders leftovers are honestly batty, which you can take from a guy who voted for him. Go take your meds and leave discussing foreign policy to the grownups.

As a peace loving man, I'm all for this. Putin is becoming a very serious threat to world peace.

And what if Russia figured out who was behind the assassination?  It would certainly lead to more anti-Americanism.

[Dereich]

I was a bit worried until I saw it was Zhirinovsky. If we had a thread for every stupid or crazy thing he said it'd take up at least half the forum.

Presumably the CIA would know better than that. We've reached critical mass here, and something needs to be done one way or another.

Zhirinovsky is not a Putin ally. He is a Putin employee, explicitly paid for making outrageous statements. He has been making outrageous statements for decades now. So far, the last time I checked, Russian troops are not washing their boots in the Indian Ocean, even though he has been insisting on that since the early 1990s.

Yeah... pretty obvious this guy is trying to suck up to Putin. Nothing to see here

[Stranger in a strange land]

Remember that if they destroy our country, we destroy theirs. The nukes are an empty threat.

This too.

Yes.
This guy is just a crazy nut.
People need to calm down.

[Joe Biden is your president. Deal with it.]

Someone should take him out with a sniper shot.  

[Simfan34]

Zhirinovsky is an opposition leader. He has no power.

I withdraw my earlier shock and anger with laughter.
