He's gone back and forth on meddling yeah, this is what i remember happening. perhaps he deliberately takes both sides on 95% of the issues so that when someone confronts him with one side undeniably being total bullshit, he can go "i ALWAYS said this side was right! just look at these clips!" that's the closest he'll get to ACTUALLY playing 4D chess, i guess. --- Geothermal terpsichorean ejectamenta ...

Like, they were probably more successful than they thought they would be, but even if Clinton had won she would have been deeply politically injured compared to the scenario where the Russians hadn't meddled (which is still a win for Putin).
And yes, you should care. Putin's goal is to divide and weaken the west in order to make his fucked up mafia state relatively more powerful. As you're a westerner (and presumably believe that western values are much better for the world than Putin's values?) that's a bad thing. --- Congrats to BKSheikah for winning the BYIG Guru Challenge! ...

The proof is pretty conclusive in my mind that they did collude with the campaign, and that Trump knew. Theres a preponderance of evidence. The information we are still waiting on is whether theres enough evidence from a legal perspective to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Trump knew. --- Thank you, Eddie Guerrero. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DRlKR5nU8AA_v_C?format=jpg&name=large ...
