    How about something in between.

    This was ambiguous to the trump fanboys for awhile, but now that he agrees with it, do y'all still disagree?

    There's still no evidence made public that the Russians were the hackers or that they provided the emails to WikiLeaks.

    Trump has said maybe it's Russia, but we're under cyber attack from all sorts of people/places. He's right on that.

    Note: I've said it could be Russia all along, just that the government is making accusations and not providing convincing proof.

    What if they have the proof but it's classified? Many in the know seem to be certain that it is Russia. And Trump's admission that it could be Russia is about as much of a walk back that you should expect from someone that loves to double down.

    They've never been our friends in my life time and absolutely nothing I've seen yet indicates they're going to be our friends in the foreseeable future. But if you want to play the Pollyanna role, have at it. I'd actually prefer your hugs and kisses scenario than my arms length scenario (which, BTW is light years from advocating for nuclear war). But keep on putting words in the mouths of others......

    But why do you want to go to war with Russia?

    I guess we need another whistle blower to release this proof. There is no reason to classify ALL the proof. Any one bit of technical proof would do.

    The report they made public is something of a joke. They accused the Russians of influencing the election by having RT (their newspaper) publish a story about Occupy Wall Street being about unhappy common people. Oh my! Seems to me they were just telling the truth.

    And compared to the withering shitstorm unleashed by our press against Trump, RT was in the noise.

    Look, this is stupid. Let's say you have fought with a neighbor and hate him. Then he sees you cheating on your wife and tells her. Is the fact that you hate him supposed to be an excuse?

    You said never, not me. I love them just for their dashcam videos on YouTube. We should be scared of them, they're badasses

    An excuse for what? Hugging him? I'd probably try to cheat with his wife. It's the American way....but I certainly wouldn't pull the trigger on him....or thank him.

    Another reason this is dubious. The government didn't even have access to the DNC servers to do any forensic analysis.

    http://thehill.com/policy/national-...-fbi-did-request-access-to-hacked-dnc-servers

    Comey: DNC denied FBI's requests for access to hacked servers

    The FBI requested direct access to the Democratic National Committee’s (DNC) hacked computer servers but was denied, Director James Comey told lawmakers on Tuesday.

    The bureau made “multiple requests at different levels,” according to Comey, but ultimately struck an agreement with the DNC that a “highly respected private company” would get access and share what it found with investigators.

    “We’d always prefer to have access hands-on ourselves if that’s possible,” Comey said, noting that he didn’t know why the DNC rebuffed the FBI’s request.

    The Terminator is now saying "you're fired" on Trump's old show.

    Speaking of which:

    Obama, you're fired.

    Clinton, you're fired and good riddance.
