Ahugecat is really annoying but could someone explain to me why pro-Trump Russian propaganda is any different from pro-Clinton German, Ukrainian, British, or Scandanavian propaganda? Hell plenty of foreign nations interject themselves into our political sphere all the time, it's a consequence of the age we live in and the technology available to us.
I just don't see why I or anyone else should care if Russia wanted Trump elected and spouted some propaganda to help him out. Almost everything is propaganda these days anyway.
As far as I can tell, the point at which Donald Trump would have committed a crime is if he had explicitly requested that his political opponents be hacked, regardless of the source of the hacking. Short of that I guess I don't care much about what Trump or anyone else said I Russia.
There are lots of good reasons to hate Donald Trump, but in this country a president has to have committed a crime to be impeached. Trump simply hasn't and the media carnival around this story has honestly just saddened me at how desperate news agencies are for ratings. I wish advertising was banned on the news so that it wasn't about viewers but about relating events as they happen / happened without the constant need to interject with #analysis and panels filled with useless pundits there only to stoke controversy.
Dispassionate news and facts are how you beat someone like Donald Trump, not the clown show that the media and Democratic Party have devolved into. If they don't right their course then it'll be very difficult to beat Trump in 2020.
