    Cautious Presidents? Concerning an issue you're all telling us today does nothing less than undercuts our process of democracy? He was more concerned about appearances and politics than national security what you're telling us, Obama more concerned about his legacy, less about ours? True?

    I will agree with caution, however there is a difference between caution and habit... habit is really a weakness. Ass clowns like Trump are the very reason we stared this country to begin with, let's see what we do about it this time.

    I'll believe them over Trump or his supporters.
    "but since the best and brightest at 17"

    None of which did a forensic analysis of the DNC's server's. I have my doubts.
    It's ok if you disagree with me. I can't force you to be right.

    Then-President Obama was too cautious in the months leading up to the election, frustrated Democratic lawmakers and strategists say.
    “It was inadequate. I think they could have done a better job informing the American people of the extent of the attack,” said Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.), a member of the House Intelligence Committee who co-chairs the Democratic Steering and Policy Committee.
    And even after the election was over, they say, the penalties Obama levied were too mild to appropriately punish what by all accounts was an unprecedented attack on a U.S. election.
    Rep. Jim Himes (D-Conn.), another House Intelligence member, called the penalties “barely a slap on the wrist.” Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), who supports tougher sanctions Russia, said in a statement Friday that the administration “abjectly failed to deter Russian aggression” and “failed to impose any meaningful costs on Russia.”
    Some Republicans argue the Obama administration only started to take the Russia threat seriously after President Trump had won the election.
    Trump has called the influence operation a “hoax” and dismissed the various inquiries into Russian interference in the election — which include looking for possible collusion between his campaign and Moscow — as a “witch hunt.”

    Okay, @Common. Let's say that Obama failed miserably to stop Putin from meddling with the election. What's Trump going to do about it?

    I'm guessing that he'll keep kissing Putin's ass.
