Hell, we still don't know how to handle it. I don't blame the FBI and I don't blame Steele.

But the GOP made it possible with its polarized politics...A VERY COMMON TRAIT IN COUP'S, REVOLTS, ETC.

We've exploited it, they've exploited it, through out the cold war. The GOP used it to regain power...after the first mid term of Obama. Only they didn't stop...or couldn't stop it. Russia saw the opportunity they thought would never happen. And they used the resources they groomed. Their major regret, is probably not grooming someone a bit more legitimate. They were probably shooting for getting a Senator...but got a President, at least temporarily and useful enough to cause damage to our credibility.

As I was saying to someone in Venice during Carnival during the opening Canal Parade, "yeah, the USA, just when we take a step forward, we have to take two steps back".

I went to Nice for Carnival in 2005 since I had to get out of the country I was disappointed with Bush and that BS war. The French were so cool and said that "bad politicians come and bad politicians go, the pendulum will swing back" and they were so wise in their attitude. I would've stayed but I couldn't get a job teaching there.

When it's revealed to the world via Muller that Trump and his White House are full blown worse than Benedict Arnold TRAITORS. Putin is now asking himself how he could have ended up with a person who's every personality characteristic is vile, cruel and really stupid and lazy.

Now we can ponder every time there's a Russian polonium assassination if it was triggered by Jared selling PDB info to the Reds?

... actions due to ego and on TOP of all that not considering the worst case that our codes and security procedures could be compromised by people who are easily bought.

Few wanted to work with Agent Orange so he went out and got the scummiest people known to society to man his clan.

Now we're supposed to trust the 2018 election !?

I agree, no doubt every time someones poisoned or "fell off a balcony" or something like that we're going to be pondering I just pray the MSM catches up to it.
