My foil hat is on. The Russians seemed confident that Trump was the horse to bet on.

Even before he was nominated. Department of Homeland Security acknowledges 21 states had their election systems hacked. There has been no uniform forensic analysis of the machines. Were the hacks before the primary? The voting, voter roles and voter tabulation system are not sophisticated at all. Go to Black Box Voting to see smarter people than me analyze them.

129 million people saw Russian Facebook material. If 1% of the people who saw that stuff changed their mind that’s 15 Times Trumps margin of victory. This material mirrored the issues of the Trump campaign with more precision than his campaign demonstrated on any other front.

All of our intelligence agencies agree we were messed with on a huge scale. What was brought out in today’s ileagal fillings just scratches the surface of what has already been reported on.

My foil hat seems to be fitting better than it ever has before. I do not have much faith that the Special Prosecuter will examine anything on the national scale that the Russian’s interference seems to have been executed..

Putin still has dirt on him, at least until Mueller divulges it in the course of prosecution.
Hillary was never going to help Putin. Trump was his only chance.
