No, it was an issue before the election, and Obama wanted to put out a bi-partisan statement to inform the public about what Russia was doing, but Mitch McConnell refused to go along.Termin8tor » 07 Jun 2019 1:35 pm » wrote:Obama was president and had the power and the authority to do something, and he did almost nothing. That's a matter of public record.
It only became an issue after HRC lost. They needed an issue with which to frame Trump.
You know damn well that if Obama had done much more before the election, you MAGAts would have been screaming your heads off about how Obama was trying to help Hillary, and you **** know it.
You're not fooling anyone with that ****.
This is just another Trumplican talking point lie that you are spreading in order to shift the blame from the real culprits.
It was Donald Trump Jr. who got an email saying that Russia wanted to help Trump get elected and said, "I love it!" and set up a meeting.
It was Trump who waved around a bunch of emails stolen by the Russians and proclaimed, "Wikileaks! I love Wikileaks!
It was Trump's campain manager who provided someone with ties to Russian intelligence with inside polling data from his campaign to help them know which areas to target with their disinformation.
Both Jared Kushner and Erik Prince tried to set up secret back channels in order to communicate with Russia covertly.
And many members of the Trump campaign were meeting with Russians and lying about it.
Maybe you can figure out a way to blame Obama for all of that.
