That was my first response when the idea of Russian interference in 2016 was first brought up in here for the first time. The poster who started it is one of the more frequent liberal posters. I pointed out what you say here, but in longer form. I pointed out that the Soviets had an entire govt agency devoted to this from the time of Lenin. I pointed out what the US had done in South America, Central America and the Caribbean (and Asia). Even Russia itself - Yeltsin (do you think they ever forgot that?) And I brought it all the way up to Obama's illegal use of funds to contribute directly to Netanyahu's opponent.
He had nothing to say to any of that. Nothing! He was incapable of forming a single cogent thought about the history and background. He had myopia for one thing only - OrangeManBad.
If their guy did it, the entire liberal establishment celebrated
Here is the story of Obama directly intervening in Israeli elections - Obama admin. sent taxpayer money to campaign to oust Netanyahu
