about their thoughts on foreign influence in American politics, like for instance that it is NOT OK to allow a foreign adversary to influence or election and then take steps to conceal the influence and lie about it to the American people.

Just a friendly reminder that if you are going to espouse their virtues, you might want to stop for a minute and think about what they stood for and what they did to protect this country.

Otherwise, giving them accolades, while continuing to do the exact opposite of them, just renders the accolades into window dressing. Considering they established our country and secured our everlasting freedom, I think they deserve better treatment then that. Don't you?

Just a thrifty reminder. Many of the founding fathers owned slaves.

Well thrifty, what can I say, some issues like slavery lend themselves to an evolving morality to change from right to wrong. Other issues, like allowing a foreign adversary to influence our election and then take steps to conceal the influence and lie about it to the American people, stay morally consistent as wrong and disloyal.

I know, I know, for an unpatriotic fellow like you this stuff is still pretty hard to understand, but please try, those articles I posted above are on a 7th grade reading level. Shoot for the stars my friend and give it a try!

Shame that Hillary hired foreigners to gather data on opponents. Not to mention her husband�s acceptance of contributions to both his campaigns and his post government �charity� from Chinese and numerous other foreign sources to include Russia. I guess President Obama�s campaign acceptance of foreign contributions was wrong too.

The hypocrisy of the left projecting their actual sins on their opponents is a classic projection that they perfected in Analysis.

Politics is a pretty dirty nasty business, no side is immune to flaws, but levels of blatant hypocrisy, lies, and the push to change our constitution to collectivization is vile.

I know crazy how Hilary Clinton paid for opposition research from a foreign entity that was funded by Russia, and had the FBI use it to spy on her political opponent. That�s what you are talking about right?

No. He is talking about the baubles and titles mentioned in the first article that other governments would have offered political office holders for favor, and pointing at the Clinton foundation, and trips to rape island for a former president.

He also noted a newspaper that is written by and for leftists, and correctly noted it is on a 7th grade reading level.

Best,

And let's not forget that the DNC basically rigged the primary process, ensuring that Hillary Clinton would be the nominee. So what they did, was tell all of the Bernie Sanders supporters "we don't care what you think or want." Is that what the Founders would have wanted?

And let's not forget that that the Clinton campaign paid a foreign operative to build a dossier against Donald Trump, under the guise of "opposition research."

And let's not forget that this foreign operative used Russian contacts to build that dossier. In other words "foreign adversaries." Would the Founders have supported that?

And let's not forget that the Russians (a foreign adversary) pumped millions of dollars into the Clinton Foundation. It is doubtful that they did this because they felt it was a good charity.

The last time I checked, Trump cabinet members were not destroying evidence with hammers, shredding emails, and gaining immunity prior to testifying.

Finally, the Russians and most of our adversaries have been meddling in our elections for years. Bottom line, if you vote based on what you read on Facebook or other social media, I not only question your intelligence, but whether you should be voting at all.

Not talking about that, because that did not happen. The Trump Dossie was originally funded by a conservative group, The Washington Free Beacon during the primaries. The Democrats picked up the finding once Trump was the nominee.

Learn the facts, and then come back better prepared.

With respect to the DNC shenanigans, At least the democrats kept it inside their house and didn't set aside their patriotism to sell out our country to Putin for an advantage. That's just hard ball politics. The other can be considered treason. BIG DIFFERENCE!

What do you think Jefferson or Adams would of done in this situation, much less think of you now?
