Hillary needed excuses for her megadonors as to why she lost and why they will not get political favors in return for their donations.
The DOJ used DNC oppo research and turned it into a bullshit federal case. The Steele Dossier is pure bullshit. The FISA COURT was corrupt. The evidence for the indictment was NEVER corroborated.
100% FASCISM BY POS COMMUNISTS.
Amazing how donations to the CLINTON FOUNDATION DROPPED 90% WHEN SHE LOST. Does that make any of you cult fucks think twice?
You are captured in a cult. You need to wake the fuck up.

But I don't expect you to even know about those things, seeing how you have your head so far up your ass.

The Truth Behind Trump Tower Moscow: How Trump Risked Everything For A (Relatively) Tiny Deal
Candidate Trump jeopardized his eventual presidency on a middling deal—and one that would have had Vladimir Putin's fingerprints all over it.www.forbes.com
"It's not my fault I lost! He cheated! Look, all these totally trustworthy intelligence agencies said so!" DNC shouldn't have ran her. They chose to. It's not the Russian's fault that she had no appeal outside of California, Chicago, and New York.Except the people said no to Trump. Loudly. Trump lost the popular vote. You guys can't keep citing what the people wanted when Trump keeps losing the popular vote.
Oh, prior to 2016, you heard a lot about Russia. You were probably too busy watching Reality TV, though.
Except 17 Intelligence agencies concluded they did. That they did isn't really in question. The only real question was if Trump was in on the gag, or if the Russians just see him as a useful idiot.
The Mueller investigation found that a lot of people working for Trump were on the Russian Payroll. Manafort, Flynn, etc.
A couple of points. First, if the Russians HAD hacked the machines, do you think the government would ever admit they did?
I give you the case of Reality Winner. Besides needing parents who needed to be slapped for giving her a stupid name, she leaked a report about the extent of Russian interference in the 2016 to the intercept. She was given the harshest sentence ANYONE has ever been given for leaking information. Not for leaking nuclear secrets or taking home boxes of classified information, but for pointing out that the Russians were interfering in our elections.
Reality Winner - Wikipedia

Second point. The Russians did a lot more than take out some Facebook ads. They employed thousands of internet trolls to spread fake information. (I suspect we have more than a few of these people on USMB to this day.)
I'll freely admit that Hillary ran a pretty poor campaign. She wasn't a good pick as a candidate.
That doesn't take away from the fact that more people still voted for her and that the Russians were actively aiding Trump.
Big bucks like the Bidens or chikin-shit? HINT: chikin-shitAnd the Trump family continued to do business with China whilst he badmouthed them while president

For about 250 years elections have been run the same way. I refuse to believe that after that long, literally not one Ivy League egghead at the DNC knew that it's not the raw quantity of votes that wins.She got more votes than Trump. She had plenty of appeal.
wasn't the point you were arguing.For about 250 years elections have been run the same way. I refuse to believe that after that long, literally not one Ivy League egghead at the DNC knew that it's not the raw quantity of votes that wins.
Well, the GOP controlled (at the time) US Senate reported on the repeated meetings between Trump's 2016 campaign officials and Russian intel. The same body--controlled by republicans--also detailed Russian intel hacking DNC and Clinton campaign officials. THis is old news and well documented.You make loony statements backed up by NOTHING. The "nothing" is what the OP asked you to explain
Trump laundered money for Russia.Trump wants to build a Trump Tower in Moscow.
So, the Uniparty has been failing for 12 years. How much money have they wasted?
Why aren't the West's leftists going over to fight Putin on the battlefield?
You make loony statements backed up by NOTHING. The "nothing" is what the OP asked you to explain
Get your hand out of your pants, DonniePenisExtender.
Is there an echo in here?List everything President Trump did throughout his whole four year term, that in any way benefited, helped, enriched, supported, or otherwise aided Russia, Putin, or the Russian government.
You can't.
Trump looks up to Putin.I never understood that. The almost universally-accepted presumption among Democrats, is that there's some kind of bond between Donald Trump and Russia. But in spite of that, here we have RT claiming that a President Trump would "drive a wedge" between Russia and China.
Of course this is the view of a Russian state-controlled international news television network funded by the Russian government. Their purpose is to disseminate propaganda, right? So why would they criticize a presidential candidate thought of by half the American electorate, to be "sympathetic" to them?
These are strange times we're living in.
Trump promises to drive wedge between Russia and China
"The US Republican presidential candidate has said he would “un-unite” the two superpowers if re-elected
Republican nominee Donald Trump has blamed US President Joe Biden for the deepening of Russia-China ties, and promised to drive a wedge between the two nuclear powers."

Nah, cult members don't changeLink or you're a liar.
Harris's proclaimed policies she has supported for the past 8 years are far-far-far more aligned with Russia than Trump.I never understood that.
