    Democrats are questioning if the continued focus on Russian involvement in the presidential election is taking focus away from issues that directly affect people's lives, The Washington Post reported.

    The thing about a good theory though, it that it both explains facts, and you can make testable predictions.

    Fact 1:
    Russia attempted to hack our electoral process through a multi-pronged attack.

    Fact 2:
    Donald "look how big my inauguration crowd was" Trump has done nothing but deny this even happened. He has shown no willingness whatsoever to hold Russia to account for anything.

    Fact 3:
    Donald Trump has a pattern of criticizing anyone, and everyone at the drop of a hat. Allies, enemies, courts, free press, nothing has escaped his remarks and twitter feed, except for ONE/(two) thing(s), and that is Russia/Putin

    Fact 4:
    Russian efforts appeared designed to support Trump

    Fact 5:
    Trump directly called on Russia publicly to support his efforts to get elected.

    Theory:
    Donald Trump has been compromised in some way. Either he directly owes them money, or they have evidence of some kind of him breaking the law or doing something he does not want others to know about.

    This theory explains those facts, and is fully consistent with observed reality.

    Prediction:
    Donald Trump will take no action personally, nor will he criticize Russia or Putin in any way in regards to the Russian attack on our elections. He may allow his underlings to do some minor, inconsequential stuff, and if forced to do anything by Congress will drag his feet, if not outright attempt to veto any sanctions.


    The way to falsify the theory:
    1) Trump criticizes Putin/Russia (good)
    2) Trump orders/takes action that materially harms Russian interests (definitive)

    Bull conspiracy theories fail very often because either: they cannot be falsified, or they directly conflict with observed reality. This theory can be falsified, and does not conflict with what we know as fact.

    Donald Trump is unpredictable except for Russia

    I don't think Democrats are making a big mistake by talking about Russia, because it is plain that any elected official who has any sense of national responsibility should be.

    If the Republicans won't then they deserve to be called out for cowardice, and placing party over country.

    If the goal of alleged Russian hacking was to undermine Americans' confidence in our democratic system, it seems that it succeeded beyond their wildest dreams. Little did they know they'd have so much help from our IC and the MSM in that regard.

    Democratic lawmakers are criticizing former President Barack Obama for not having a more heavy-handed response to intelligence that showed Russia was meddling in the U.S. 2016 presidential elections, The Hill reported Friday.

    Perhaps Trump should set up a task force to establish best practices for dealing with phish emails? Most companies already have established policies on this. I guess the DNC is just behind the times.

    DEFCON give a about USA. No Trump supporter on board ever said "Investigate this and let chips fall where they may." Not you for sure. All you do is want to stop it.

    You can't say you love country. Just Trump and party.

    Russia unleashes their most sophisticated cyber weapons on us and it's a phishing email that clumsily points right back at them?


    Your average cable news watcher doesn't know any better. Smh

    "Such attacks cannot be tolerated and the United States must take immediate measures to ensure that those responsible are held to account," Sens. Dianne Feinstein of California and Ben Cardin of Maryland said in their letter, dated Nov. 1, 2016.

    The presidential election was held Nov. 8.
