    One amazing element of all this that gets forgotten: if the “Russian interference” operation in 2016 was so sweeping and existentially threatening, why did Barack Obama himself consistently downplay it (both before and after the election) and basically act like it was no big deal

        Because at that point it was still "on his watch" & he would be held responsible, obviously. See also, Yemen, children in cages & separating families at the border.

        Reps screamed Benghazi & media and the left rightly mocked them for it. Dems scream Russia did it. On just about any social or domestic issue & the media went along & even turned to the Iraq has WMDs working with ALQ Never Trumper for advise & insight. I hope the mocking happens

        a.) Because of his confidence that Hillary would win. and b.) Because he knew the Russian interference was typical and mostly harmless. Only after Hillary's loss did it become a convenient excuse for his shattered legacy.

        He also downplayed this during his primary debates against Romney in 2012. Romney had nailed this one.

        Obama expected the case to unravel eventually, and wanted to protect his own ass. Just like the intelligence agencies when they use qualifying terms like "moderate confidence". They trick people in the moment, but leave room for plausible deniability when the truth is exposed.

        If everything we have been told is 100% true then this was very low level stuff. It was used and pumped up by our propaganda machine for maximum outrage. They will insists that their vision on how to have world order must prevail and the ends will justify the means.

        Chinese finger trap. probably best, for the Dems and the Dem allied media, to exit the game entirely here.

        I was lazy and didn’t do anything properly in the final weeks of my last job because I would have still gotten paid anyway. I think that’s what it’s about.
