George W. Bush says Russia meddled in 2016 US election

The Russians hacked the election. There's no doubt at all. They did that. It's been proven.
Bottom line no negotiations. They did this. Ignore it if you choose.

Ignore the obvious.

"Pretty clear evidence", George?

Where...

Ignoring it won't alter the facts.

Right on front of your eyes.

But

Ignore the obvious.

I haven't ignored anything.

I just don't cling to one ideologies stance on the matter. I'm able to step back and see they're playing both sides.

What makes a die hard leftist different from a die hard Trump supporter? From what I've gathered not much. Both cherry pick what they're willing to believe.

And neither are willing to admit that the mess we're in is because people are so polarized we allow horrible candidates to get the ticket.

If you want to say tried to influence that's one thing, but how did they "hack the election"?

Did they physically change votes?

with a plethora of available 'proof' , why has no official presented this evidence.

Aww, how cute the Deep State just summoned a new player.

- "There's pretty clear evidence that the Russians meddled," said former President Bush.
- Donald Trump has denied that Moscow tried to affect the vote.
- Speaking of Russian President Vladimir Putin, Bush called him "zero-sum."

With all these crazy news lately maybe I missed something like WHERE'S THIS EVIDENCE HE'S TALKING ABOUT?

Former President George W. Bush said on Thursday that "there's pretty clear evidence that the Russians meddled" in the 2016 American presidential election, forcefully rebutting fellow Republican Donald Trump's denials of Moscow trying to affect the vote.

While never mentioning President Trump by name, Bush appeared to be pushing back on Trump's attempts to have warmer relations with Russia, as well as his comments on immigration.

The White House did not immediately comment on Bush's remarks.

"There's pretty clear evidence that the Russians meddled," Bush said at a talk in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates. "Whether they affected the outcome is another question."

Bush also said that "it's problematic that a foreign nation is involved in our election system. Our democracy is only as good as people trust the results."


U.S. intelligence agencies have concluded Russia meddled in the 2016 election to help Trump win. Numerous investigations are under way to determine whether Trump's campaign aided the Kremlin in its efforts.

LOL


The rest of the article is irrelevant, just posting because someone may have missed Mr. Bush's back at business now that Obama can't show his ass up since he's probably hiding in a bunker with his 30 lawyers.


CNBC

Their lies just reinforce my opinion that they really did broke the law to push their agenda.

W. just signed the death warrant to his own legacy. The moron. If he was any kind of a leader, he'd have addressed that issue back then rather than sit on it until now. The alternative is he's guessing/lying. Either way, he's now no better than Clinton or Obama in my books. DOA.

hacking doesn't necessarily mean altering data.

Hacked the election is a bit sensational and disingenuous.

a reply to: Sillyolme

Just keep on shilling for the establishment.
You’ve long showed your true colors by now.

Of course we can’t forget Obama spending hundreds of thousands of American tax dollars trying to meddle in Israel’s election in 2014.

But meh Russia Scandal!

are you purposely ignoring the reports that Russia penetrated some voter systems?

“We were able to determine that the scanning and probing of voter registration databases was coming from the Russian government.” –Jeanette Manfra


but, we probably should ignore it...

I really hate deliberate ignorance. Even the orangutan admitted Russian hacking begrudgingly. He's so afraid they're gonna declare his presidency illegitimate. So so much fear. I see it in his supporters too. So very afraid. Otherwise the evidence is obvious and you're asking for a foreign nation to interfere again. Next time it may not be your side to benefit. but ignore it now because of fear.

what did they hack?

What did they do?

a reply to: vinifalou

Russia didn't hack our election but even if it was true it still didn't change one single vote. If Russia hacked our election, they failed big time. That's like stealing a car that's already yours.

what did they hack, exactly. Links please

The most I have ever been able to find is they used Facebook and Twitter to spread news (not fake news by the way) about Hillary and didn't tell people they were from Russia.

True / False?
