It appears that Russia hacked the DNC. Given Donald Trump's ties to Russia, what should happen if somebody establishes that he had communications with Russia or his allies in Russia regarding the DNC hack? Would this be worse than Watergate?
Yes , And there are red people from mars in the white house cloak room too !
The hacker, whoever it is, is not what is important. We may never know who it was. What is important is the proof of the DNC rigging the voting system against the sell out Bernie Sanders. His followers are outraged with the DNC.
Demexit is a new grassroots movement that is rising up because of the cheating and corruption...they are not going to go away, and I am behind them 100%. Sounds like Brexit!
Its important that people are waking up. Whoever the hacker is, my hat is off to them. The DNC is crumbling under Hillary Clinton. Russia had nothing to do with this, but I'm sure Putin is getting a good laugh over Hillary's campaign deflection of attention to a fairy tale, instead of the focus being BUSTED!
Thank God, the hacker exposed what Bernie was saying about the election being rigged and so much more. But, then he bows out and says vote for Hillary? He sold his soul and sold out his followers.
As usual, you avoided the question. Sure, the DNC part of this is important - no different than how the RNC tried to rig their primaries, right? The question is IF they find a link between Trump and Russia and the hack. Nixon resigned over Watergate. If there's a link, Trump could be indicted before the election. If he is elected and a link is found, he would be impeached.
If a link is found I'd want independent verification that he wasn't set up.
All of this smells fishy.. I, personally, think that the 'russian connection' is simply Hillary and her cronies grasping at anything they can to divert the conversation from them.
The funny thing is that a Democratic led administration tells us that the Russians most likely did it. Did they? Who knows. But, it gives fuel to the whining of the DNC so they have ample reason to say it whether they believe it to be true or not.
The main issue is what the emails said. Not who shared them.
Exactly! We have the evidence, proof positive, the facts.
Both are important. As a Democrat, I want the unscrupulous party elite to be removed from their positions.
As an American, if Trump has ties to Putin, I want to know about it.
Worse than Watergate? I think not. Again I say had the DNC not said and done what they did this would be a non issue.
They are attempting to deflect our attention from the problem.
I asked you to speculate. Do you even know what Watergate is? How could it not be worse if Trump compelled or colluded with Russia to hack the DNC?
LOL.. Of course I know what Watergate is. I was out of the country on a student exchange program during the impeachment hearings. Imagine a teenager overseas, listening to all of that, not knowing how it would all end. Not something one forgets.
Excellent! I was not stating that Donald Trump's connection to the Russian hack was fact. I was asking one to speculate. What if there's a connection?
I fail to see any significance. What if there is? It wasn't state secrets. If they hack into the pentagon and Trump is involved let me know. Then we could talk.
Politics is a dirty business. Just ask Bernie.
Has it come to that already? The DNC is hacked by wikileaks. Then the FBI speculates that Russia played a part in it.
And we are now insinuating that Trump forced Russia to do it?!? His wall, paid for by Mexico, is far more likely - has that become a reasonable speculation as well?
It's not speculation, it would seem. The FBI is saying it's almost certain it was Russia. Wikileaks does not, itself, do hacking, as far as I know.
Most of Trump's debt is held by Russia. He seems to admire Putin. He is beholden to Russia. None of that is in dispute. Is it not odd that Russia would release these hacked emails now?
Again, this was a speculative question. A what if?
"Delusional" Donald does indeed have what APPEARs to be a VERY Cozy Relationship with the Communist Russian Dictator Vladimir Putin & a "HACK" by Russian Agents on his Behalf is certainly NOT out of the "REALM of Possibilites" ~ Just look at the "Timing" ~ Coincidence? Probably NOT and inevitably, it ONLY Hurts Donald more anyway ~
Trump & Putin have EXCHANGED "Words of Admiration" toward each other in Public & Donald has Unambiguously EXPRESSED his Desire to "Appease & HELP" Russia by Undermining the Strength of the United States & her ALLIEs in several different dangerous ways ~ One reason WHY our European Friends are "Appalled & Dismayed" at the thought of a "Delsuional" Donald Presidency ~
If Donald is willing to Jeopardize the Security of the United States & NATO by having this Conversation with Putin in PUBLIC, we can ONLY Imagine what they are Discussing in PRIVATE ~ ~
ALL Readers should INVESTIGATE ~ U Might be Shocked ~
"Delusional Donald SAYs "Putin Gets an "A" for Leadership"

Answering your question would be pure speculation. I focused on what is important, that the DNC is corrupt, and its crumbling under its own weight.
Sure the RNC was rigging things to stop Trump, their top pick was Bush, but the corrupt establishment is nowhere to be seen now. Thankfully!
This is exactly what needs to be happening, so that we the people can overthrow the corruption in government. Truth is on our side.
We may never know who the hacker was, but they will go down in history as a 'good guy'.
Now that Trump has committed an act of treason today by encouraging a foreign government to commit an act of espionage, this all may be moot.
"As the Russians gradually assumed control of Uranium One in three separate transactions from 2009 to 2013, Canadian records show, a flow of cash made its way to the Clinton Foundation. Uranium One’s chairman used his family foundation to make four donations totaling $2.35 million. Those contributions were not publicly disclosed by the Clintons, despite an agreement Mrs. Clinton had struck with the Obama White House to publicly identify all donors. Other people with ties to the company made donations as well.
And shortly after the Russians announced their intention to acquire a majority stake in Uranium One, Mr. Clinton received $500,000 for a Moscow speech from a Russian investment bank with links to the Kremlin that was promoting Uranium One stock."

The Clintons and Globalists are scared, the Clintons have gotten away with far too much over the years, they are a part of the selling out of America. They are being exposed, sure they would want to create false headlines and narratives to cover their dirty deeds with Russia. Lets blame Trump!

There can be know doubt that the Trump Jr. meeting with various Russians connected with Putin was collusion. It is not important that the those on the Russian side ended up only talking about influencing Donald Trump to end a set of 2012 sanctions against Russia. What is important is that...
