Who was the president when the hacking occurred? It has already been established that Trump did not "collude" with Russia, and he was a civilian at the time. Maybe "cut it out" wasn't an effective way to deal with Russian meddling. Thanks Obama.
Trump is counting on a rerun of 2016 and is doing less than zero to secure our elections. When that first batch of hacked emails comes in from Russia all of you Trumpbots will not feel the least bit dirty or sad that the GOP is now a Russian espionage tool. You've sold your souls.
Exactly.
Russian interference in US elections is yet another issue conservatives couldn’t care less about – particularly when it benefits Republican candidates.
Well you were warned when they rolled out those machines after the 2000 election that our data could be hacked...

I can keep on going backwards but the threat has been known about and it only because an issue when Hillary Clinton did not win the Electoral College...

Just hope Chad does not hang around again...
Any of you liberals have anything to say about Obama not doing anything about the potential hacks?
Or, is this just another political game of gotchya?
This has been going on for some time, and my best guess would be if
the old hag had won, it wouldn't have been an issue.
Obama did do something. He imposed sanctions on Russia your man would take away in an instant if he could get away with it. The cyber-espionage arms race is being purposely lost by Trump because if the Russians win the GOP wins. Never mind what the Russians might want in return for their strings-attached help.
RW hacks wont give Obama credit for Russian sanctions, they're Trumpdrones.
the Obama administration took actions before and after Election Day. Prior to the election, the Obama administration publicly named the Russian government as the culprit, confronted Russian President Vladimir Putin in person, and worked to secure U.S. election infrastructure — all while intelligence agencies investigated the issue.
But the Obama administration’s most significant retaliatory measure against Russia came after Trump’s electoral win.
On Dec. 29, 2016, Obama
ordered 35 Russian diplomats and suspected intelligence agents to leave the United States, and he also imposed narrow sanctions on some Russian individuals and organizations.
Trump, on the other hand, has
cast doubt on Russia’s election meddling and repeated Putin’s denials of his government’s involvement.
