Obama told Putin to "cut it out"

www.politico.com...

Obama took Swift, decisive action while he was POTUS to curtail Russian hacking. He told Putin to "cut it out or else" you big meanie.

That will teach him. Personally, I prefer "knock it off", lol

I'll put my house on it that this "event" never happened anyways.

What could he do.

Obama's signature international policy moves consisted of either giving a bunch of money out or turning around and dropping his panties while mumbling "saddle up".

It is a pretty drastic about face for the rest of the world. Apparently the way a community organizer(is that even a difficult job, just order some juiceboxes and cater some snacks) vs an international business man handles international affairs is pretty drastic.

Obama: I told Putin to cut it out on hacking

It's interesting reading the Politico article now after all that's happened.

Obama, what a waste of 8 years...he really screwed up this country and set race relations back a century. It's too bad Obama and Trump will not ever face off in a political debate. I would like to see Trump wipe that smirk off his face and destroy him.

From the linked article..

“What I was concerned about in particular was making sure [the DNC hack] wasn't compounded by potential hacking that could hamper vote counting, affect the actual election process itself,” the president said at his end-of-year press conference. “So in early September when I saw president Putin in China, I felt that the most effective way to ensure that that didn't happen was to talk to him directly and tell him to cut it out and there were going to be serious consequences if he didn't. And in fact we did not see further tampering of the election process.”

Article dated Dec 16 2016.

This does make you wonder why the left are not holding him accountable for his actions while in office.
Psych! We know why.

But Obama single handedly stopped Russian hacking. You see, everyone has been asking what Obama did to stop it during the campaign while he was in office. Now we have the official narrative "cut it out".

Less than two weeks after that Obama sanctioned four GRU members and expelled 35 diplomats. He then closed two compounds in the US used by Russian embassy officials.

It was a little more than just, 'cut it out.'

Yeah. Very little more.

That was just a month before Trump took office, seems to me it was a move to cover their tracks. What did he do from 2014-2016? They knew about interference from as early as 2014.

"the RIA news agency quoted Putin as saying he would consider the actions of President-elect Donald Trump, who takes office next month"

Obama told Putin to "cut it out"

And Trump told Putin to keep it up! "Russia! If you're listening!"

Trump told the world that he believed Putin over his own US intel.

Thank-you for pointing out Obama's ultimate decision.

Last I read, he was considering what "significant punishment" to slap on Putin/Russia, after Trump won.

SMART PRESIDENT, considering his Intel agencies were part of the illegal spying on his campaign and family.

Oh for the love of the flying spaghetti monster, you're still on about that?

I probably shouldn't be surprised any more, but I keep wanting to give people the benefit of the doubt.

Well, since the left can't meme or troll and trump was "trolling" it's not hard to understand why that was misunderstood.

I'm sure snopes is your homepage. So when someone posts an obvious joke/troll you can double check to see if it was a "real" event.

Well he does love when people do free work for him, so do I. Smart POTUS, why spend his own money on oppo research when the Russians were doing it for free? Maybe he can get the Russians to build our wall with Mexico

You forgot- while he said it to him, he also pointed his finger. Incredibly threatening gesture.

Trump "A priest and a rabbi walk into a bar...."

Left "Reee, this is not a fact...'

Snopes "Did a priest and a rabbi walk into a bar...."

Obvious jokes/trolls are obvious.

You mean he believed Putin over Obama's embedded deepstate intel? So would I.
