interesting Patton Oswalt quote on FB

(the comedienne) he's been a vocal anti-trump poster for a while, always interesting. He posted something that I hadn't thought about; why is the RNC so adamant that THEY were NOT hacked.

"This fucking election. Fucking Trump.
These newest revelations, that Russia hacked the election. Piles of evidence, teetering up to the sky. That Russia ALSO hacked the RNC and are holding them over a barrel because of what they know. Which would be hilarious if it wasn't so frightening.
And the boiling chaos that's resulting from it. I've got conservative friends actually DEFENDING Russia on this. I've got progressive friends gloating that we've finally had done to us what we've done to other countries. That Hillary somehow deserves this. That WE somehow deserve this. That infuriating cliche about, "It's actually GOOD ifTrump destroys everything it'll start a revolution BLAH BLAH BLAH FUCKING BLAH..."

That commie-killing sob would rather go full Rambo on the Senate floor than see the Russians control us.

as a reason & an excuse to hate him.

And now they turn around and champion the guy that's openly supported by the Nazis & the Russians.
