Former CIA operations officer Evan McMullin says that Trump and his team were uniquely positioned to halt the Russian attack, but instead they welcomed it. and tried to obstruct efforts to investigate it.
"We must send an unmistakable message to our adversaries that we will not tolerate attempts to sabotage our democracy and upend the rule of law. It’s not an exaggeration to say that our freedom requires it."
They welcomed it and participated in it after months and months of denial. There was indeed collusion, cooperation and coordination between realDonaldTrump, his campaign and the Russians. And they’re still doing it. Trump is a liar.
Obama knew about it and did nothing.
Trump could have told them to “Cut it out” like Obama...lol
Fake news
Fake news. There is overwhelming evidence that obama was informed by some intelligence agencies. What did obama do about it? 'ABSOLUTELY NOTHING'! msnbc you need to get your act together. Because right now, you are an untrustworthy source of information.
McMuffin where you been? 😁 off to studying eggo’s I see. Obama was President in 2016 (dork). He knew what was Russia was doing & took no action because Russia was helping Hillary not Trump. Egghead
America is in danger from a wannabe Dictator! Wake up people!!!!
Dude. Who was President during 2016?
Chrisstto12 Yep
Official Dunce
shanaban52 A COUP ? Trump is throwing this word out bcse he knows HE will be accused of a real bona - fide GOVERNMENT TAKE OVER - Trump colluded with Russia to attack Democratic election and succeeded - HE is now DISMANTLING OUR GOVN INSIDE OUT WITH PUTIN MENTOR !
Obama is a total failure!
LOL. He was a private citizen. This is all Obama's fault.
National security officials warned Obama administration in 2014. They knew...
The truth rings clear to all who recognize it.
Was Obama not uniquely positioned to do something about it?
You mean OBAMA!!!!! Clapper, Yates, Brennan....right!!!
Keep doubling down on stupid continues
What do you expect from this fellow and MSNBC
Obama was in charge
Barack Obama was President in 2016. It was his responsibility to stop Russian interference, not Trump’s. How did Trump “welcome” interference? The Mueller report concluded that was no collusion. This former CIA official is shamelessly partisan.
Stupid.
Our Constitution dictates that we impeach NOW, failure to do so, could result in the fall of our Constitution, Republic, & way of life ! Converting our government from Democratic to Authoritararian, in turn, making Trump, the last president, this nation will ever have !
Didn’t the attack happen during the campaign? Who was president then? Hint - it wasn’t Trump. It’s not that difficult to understand.
Trump Derangement Syndrome runs Deep!! Hahahahaha
Bitter much
No one can stop Russia from cyber attacks completely. Also no one can stop a candidate from accepting Russian efforts to help his campaign. We as voters must decide if we will allow political leaders to engage foreign adversaries to influence our elections. I say no. The Trump campaign has Russians imbedded from day 1. Pig pen comes to mind when I think of Trump. Always a cloud of dirt surrounding him and everything he touches. High crimes and misdemeanors required impeachment.
What a joke. Obama and his admin knew about it and did nothing. Why not criticize them hypocrite?
So cute how Evan wants so desperately to be taken seriously
Trump was not sworn in until after he won the election.. until that moment barrack Obama was in a unique position as the only president of the United states to stop it.. Obama was president during entire Russia election problem not Trump.
Evan McMullin says that President Trump and his team were uniquely positioned to halt the Russian attack, but instead they welcomed it; with open arms! Giuliani: 'There's nothing wrong with taking information from Russians'
YA THINK.
Trump/Republicans: REEKING OF CORRUPTION !!! 🤑
Why not start impeachment proceedings - what are they concerned about. His 'base'?!? Base hovers at 30ish percent and didn't get him elected in the first place
Reality: the Russian attack happened under the Obama admin. It was reported that the Obama admin ordered agencies to stand down. Stop the bs.
Instead it happened while Obama was president and he never even informed Trump.. corrupt bastid
You guys know that Obama knew about Russian meddling since 2014, right? Why do you continue to mislead? It will hurt you in the long run. But hard to backtrack now, I suppose.
Deflecting CYA story b/c President Obama did nothing and to take the heat off of him and his media cronies!
So was Obama
Now it's all Trump's fault! smh
How is that possible, since obozo was the president when this happened?
Easy there cowboy. BarackObama could have stopped it before it became a thing. Or did Obama allow it to happen hoping it would benefit HillaryClinton. JoeBiden was VP and didn’t take it seriously either.
How sad is that! The President and his administration are all underhanded and untrustworthy! How safe does that make you feel!
Didn’t BarackObama do the same?
Absurd
Except that this all happened under Obama’s watch.
There's a name for that response!.. TREASON!
You mean obama?
Evan McMillan received campaign donations from the Clinton's & only the FACTSMATTER. Only the Obama administration was informed but instead he welcomed it because they were helping HRC & already spying on their political enemies! IS FakeNews!
That nutjob? The only person damaged enough to buy into Bill Kristol's scheme.
The Obama administration knew about Russian interference & did nothing. What do you have to say about that?😡🤬😡🤬
Obama told his head of Cyber Security to STAND DOWN on Russian hacking during the 2016 election
You misspelled “the Obama administration” as Obama was President and knew all about it but lied to the American people. Obama’s actions backfired on him Crooked HRC after Trump won then they tried to frame Trump.
Why would U think they would try & stop it when they involved themselves into allowing it to happen? American News is saying how Russia ' Meddled ', it wasn't Meddling, it was more like ' CO-OPERATIVE INFILTRATION ' you better come to that realization & be Honest with yourselves.
CBSNews gave a platform to brad parscale who literally called out specific states for Russia to target. Why? Because y'all have learned NOTHING from 2016.
Fxcking Nonsense. The Russians did stop meddling after Obama said: 'Thtop the meddling right thith very minute, I'm theriouth about thith Vlaidimir, THTOP thith -or- ELTH'!......GTFOH you Hacks!
Ignorants elect the Ignorant...
Welcomed? Aided and Abetted it, and most likely are busy busy ENGINEERING a Repeat in 2020!
And they will welcome it again unless Russian hacking Facilities are destroyed.
Obama was president. You guys are goofy.
He failed to mention that it was Obama and Rice that said, “stand down’ on Russia interference. I really wish the media would be fair. Thank god for citizen journalists.
All anyone in Trumpland had to do was tell the FBI. They had dozens of opportunities, and did nothing at all, except seek out Julian Assange. Hmmm.
Fake president.
Why is Evan so totally FullOfSchiff? The Russian 'meddling' occurred on Obama watch & his political appointed hacks did nothing.
How was Candidate trump supposed to stop the Russians? He was a reality TV star and real estate developer in 2015/16 😂😂. Why didn’t then- President Barack Obama do anything aside from telling Russia to “cut it out”?
Russian attack? You fools still pushing the Russiagate narrative even after it's been proven to be a big lie. You're not journalism.
It's not like Obama was the President at the time or anything.
CIA = clowns in America
😂
Who was president at the time? Did they do anything to stop it?
And they are going to welcome it again in 2020!
