What do you think the incoming administration should do about it?

12/18/2020 5:32:39 PM

One has to respond in whatever way you can. But this is now the reality of life in the technology era.

Do you think a military response is necessary?

I don’t know ..,.but I bet someone incredibly pig-headed will post about it. Merry Christmas.

Nope, do not want to see that.

Me either but Russia has been very aggressive lately. Chasing our fishing boats out of international waters cruising our eastern coast with nuclear subs. We've had to scramble our military air defences many times and chase them out of Alaskan air space. When is enough enough?

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo just said it was Russia who hacked into our systems. Only to be followed by a presidential tweet. Trump saying no no wasn't Russia it was China. What's up with this guy and his love of Russia.

Is it just attention getting? A dying super power that wants the attention that is being given to China. Watch The little guy with the bad hair cut every time too much attention is being given to the mid east "me too me too"

Before 2016 election, Obama said no one could hack our election. After the election, the democrats cried that Russia interfered. Then it turned out to be a pack of lies in the phony dossier. We were told after the last election that there was no interference. Now we are told that Russia hacked our computers. Trump said China hacked us. Back before 2013 China did hack us; government gave me 3 years of credit monitoring because of that. What are we supposed to believe?

I think #1 priority for Congress needs to be securing our elections. It sure would prevent a lot of confusion, distrust, and courts deciding elections.

States rights state sovereignty. That's in the Constitution. States will never give away that right.

When the Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act they essentially kicked everything back to the States. Be careful what you wish for.

And by the way the people decided this election. The Supreme Court just re-affirmed it.

The presidency was never intended to be decided by popular vote. It was supposed to be decided by the states. That is why each state has its own election rules. And when the constitution was adopted, we were a loose confederation of states. States were opposed to an all powerful federal government, and small states didn't want to give up power to big states. That is why each state has the same number of senators, and why that was figured into the electoral college. The supreme court's part is supposed the be a referee.

The court has been used more and more as a second
unelected legislature, Things like Roe V Wade should not have been decided by the court. Now the swamp dwellers want the court to elect the president, the one person who appoints them to office. A bad situation.

When I listen to mainstream media, they call every appeal that Trump makes as unfounded, false or a similar derogatory term. I find it hard to believe that every vote was perfect. We have seen how lower level government employees tried to influence the 2016 election. Certainly someone cheated.

I think that the court needs to hear Trump's appeals and rule according to the facts they uncover. If there aren't sufficient instances of cheating, Biden wins. If there are sufficient instances of cheating, and if the laws require corrective action, the court needs to throw the penalty flag and assess the penalty. If they overturning the election, democrats have only themselves to blame. Our laws need to be followed. And Congress needs to fix some problems so this doesn't happen again.

Most people on both sides suffer from fear. Most people are afraid of the truth. Even I am. If you cant examine your own fears then you may as well give up on attaining any real knowledge.

I realize there are also fearless types on both sides. This thread was about Russia and hacking not the election steal. But I do think it is a steal not because the democrats are too fearful to look at/ report the evidence. Four years of orange-man-is-bad media bashing has left them teetering on a collective nervous breakdown. Their only hope of being free from their cummulative & irrational negative stress is to get rid of Trump. They have been fully fear-conditioned and brainwashed. It's a real shame. Four years of unabated psychological warfare against a weak-minded populace. They want it to end. It's been hell for them and they want it to end.

At some point under intense interrogation (torture) a person will crack. Eventually all rational truth will be gone and people will just start agreeing with their captors/ agreeing to false statements. The human mind cant cope rationally with torture. Everyone has been tortured for four years by the people with too much power and an agenda... No one is thinking rationally at this point.

I dont know of any solution to this mass psychosis better than this: divide the country in half. Give people real choice, real freedom. Give people the choice to live in the kind of world they want to live in. Lack of freedom is mentally damaging for everyone. Dividing the country in half is the best way for everyone to be free.

We could still cooperate on self defence. The last thing the people in power with an agenda want is for you to be free. They themselves have psychological issues. Their self-soothing is forcing everyone else to suffer their own personal derangement. They project their misery onto others. We are all being duped & suckered by powerful and infantile adults who possess no healthy coping skills.

Yes our country is in very bad shape. We should unite, or divide and then get along peacefully... but we should not go to war. That's exactly what we dont want. Thats what our enemies do want.

Let's simplify things...
There are approximately 133 million registered LEGAL voters in the USA. No one disputes that Trump received 78 million of those votes during the 2020 election.
But, that leaves ONLY 58 MILLION VOTES FOR BIDEN!
How can anyone truly believe that he received 80 million votes?
That means there was a minimum of 21 million fraudulent votes, ASSUMING THERE WAS 100% VOTER TURN OUT!
Math, it's such a wonderful thing!

Your numbers are not correct. The eligible voter number is higher. Trump did not receive 78 million votes and Biden received more votes then 80 million.

The voter turnout was 66.7%. with some 239 million eligible.

It is up to SCOTUS to view the replay and make the final call.

There is a difference between eligible voters and registered voters as not all eligible voters are registered
