So, if and when he does respond with "action", what action do you want to see? Don't not respond, seriously, tell what you want to see happen before it happens. If not you are just a TDS troll who lies in wait to criticize what it is, regardless of what it is. Again I ask, what do you want your President Trump to do in his response?
Trump sent missiles into a Syrian airport after Assad gassed innocent people, he has put heavy sanctions on North Korea, Russia, China, Iran and many other communist nations. Yet, it is going to be what did Trump do about a Russian hack. He has less than 35 days left in office, if he acts he is placing Biden administration in a bad situation to start his tenure in office. If he does not react he is a coward and putting it off for Biden and his administration to handle. Trolls are trolls, their only escape is to place the blame and fault wherever they need to regardless of what transpired. It's almost like the 3 new monkey's. Speak evil, hear evil, see evil. Trump faces on all three
I want him to deal with it the way he sees best, but he should certainly be making the public aware of what took place! Address the public and say who is responsible for it, and what our response will be. Not totally hiding out, and keeping America in the dark. Christ, he doesn't even tweet about it! lol He has one thing only on his mind, that he's lost the election and can't deal with it. He's an embarrassment. He's laughing all the way to the bank with all of your gracious donations though.
There are many situations where America’s leaders should NOT publicize what they know or what their planned reaction is going to be. This should be a matter of common sense, but to anyone who has done a tour in or spent a career in the military it just goes without saying. In some cases I WANT our elected leaders to keep quiet about it. That way, when action is taken the enemy doesn’t know what we know and they don’t have a clue what retaliatory action is coming so they can’t be ready for it. I’m not the least bit embarrassed by him. What I am embarrassed by and what we should all be embarrassed by is the way the Democratic Party and main stream media have pitched a literal hissy fit tantrum since he was elected, constantly attacked him and did their best to remove a rightfully elected President of the United States of America. I was 17 years old when I took an oath to “support and defend the constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic”. I’m retired now, but I am still sworn to that oath, and it is REALLY looking like we have a lot of “domestic enemies of the constitution” in office in the Democratic Party, as well as more than a few in the Republican Party, trying to shred the Constitution and do irreparable damage to this country.
I agree LC, with perhaps not mentioning a response, but at least acknowledging that it took place and mentioning the culprit is in order, don't you think? It is the worst hack in our history and it involves many sensitive areas. I guess Trump's been too busy tweeting about John McCain, a well respected war veteran who's been dead for two years?
Since I am not "in the know" I can't say for certain. It could very well be that the very silence you are criticizing is an integral part of the plan, and if that is the case it is a sound strategy. Don't even let them know you're concerned about it until the retaliatory strike (whatever form that takes) hits. As a retired Navy man, I used to have a lot of respect for John McCain. There were a lot of accusations against him regarding his actions during his time as a POW, but they couldn't be proven so I gave him the benefit of the doubt. I voted for him when he ran for President. In my opinion, and it's just my opinion, when he joined the dog-pile against President Trump he violated the same oath I quoted above and I lost all respect for him. That's all I'll say about it.
Of course he's going to blame China, it fits his agenda perfectly. Like I said, never a negative word on Russia, never. It's been a common theme from the very start. It's funny though, Trump isn't even listening to his own Secretary of State Pompeo, who says it's clearly a Russian hack. He's also downplaying the severity of this breach, much like the downplaying of the virus, because he thinks it makes him look bad. Which it does. This thing is far worse than he's leading people to think. There's damage done that we're not even aware of yet.
McCain was a political puke and a snake in the grass BTW He was that WAY before Trump even mentioned running long ago on, was it on Opra?
The same Krebs who assured the American public this was the most secure election in history? Say it ain’t so! Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
Krebs is now in hiding, and the FNM/MSM have now dropped him like a rock ..... btw, Newsmax is kicking butt and is good at 'reporting' rather than the crap that CNN/MSNBC and the liberal alphabet channels spew out ...
