Repuks not doing anything to protect our elections, just might backfire on them.

It is possible that trump is hated so much by foreign countries that they will interfere with our 2020 elections and help the Dems win the WH and all the rest of it. Just a thought.

to sink Trump, they would be out of their minds not to try. If you're reading this China, in now way am I suggesting that would be the right thing to do.

trump’s house of cards seems to be falling apart.

Even Putin can see that. They may be wringing the last bit of juice from trump before he dries up and blows away.

It could be for us this time, for GOP next time. How many countries will get involved? It's a nightmare to even ponder, and it's not going away as long as we have the anonymous Internet.

A new report from Freedom House released Tuesday found that governments in 30 countries — not just the Kremlin, but also the regimes in Turkey, Venezuela and the Philippines — are now “mass producing their own content to distort the digital landscape in their favor.”
