This is very much a large part of it, but its worse than that... the DNC doesnt care about getting a qualified president... their only agenda is to get disadvantagd minority ones, because that is their latest push. its all about the social justice bullshit, that they don't care about qualifications any more than the GOP.
Oh look at us, we got a woman president.
Next it will be we got a lesbian president, then a transvestite president.
They complain Trump is unqualified...
POT. KETTLE. BLACK.

and Gamer Gate!

Lordy

Women comprise 51% of the US population. lol.

And yes, Clinton was clearly vastly more qualified.
 
Think of this in terms of computer viruses. What's the number one way to prevent viruses? Educate users and improve defenses and detection. Attacks happen because they work. They work because we allow them. You can go after hackers and prosecute but another is just going to step and try even harder.

To cut down on viruses personal accountability and education is required. Don't click on attachments you weren't expecting. If something looks odd, do a quick google search to see what it is. Have strong passwords for critical accounts. Ect. Half of the mess we are in is because of weak passwords and poor computer practices (Podesta for example).

Addressing those things that allowed this to happen in this election cycle protects us from the same problems from other countries. China is actively trying to undermine things here. Same with North Korea ramping up their cyber terrorism dept.

Sure we can go after Russia, but it doesn't fix the real problem and still leaves us vulnerable for another hostile entity to come in and do the same thing. We need to do a deep reflection on how we were vulnerable to these various forms of attack and influence. Then come up with a plan to detect them and prevent them in the future.

Sounds peachy until we realize that the Russian message was the same as the Repub message, the same hateful & divisive message they've broadcast for 25 years. If the Russians intended us harm in the process (entirely obvious) then what does that say about the Republican party?
 
You made a statement that a company was granted export rights and assumed that it meant that they shipped like FedEx to every country. You were proved wrong, just admit you were wrong, and take from this new info, that the news source you use to get your info might only be telling you half the story. What you did is exactly what I hate about hard lefties, they suck up what Maddow and that group says as gospel and ignore anything else. Man up, admit you acted a fool and begin to assist in taking back the Republican party from the fucking wacko shit for brains that are running the show now.

You inferred, incorrectly, that I said or meant uranium was shipped all over the world. I read the letter about RBS getting an amendment to their export license to ship uranium from the U1 sites in the US to Canada for processing.

Senator John Barrasso says uranium was exported illegally.
I could just post this link that kind of says what you think I said. http://americandigitalnews.com/index.php/2017/10/31/uranium-onerosatom-export-ability-ukrainerussia/

This is not wholly true. Russian propaganda intent was indeed divisive, but it wasn't always in alignment with Republicans. They were active in trying to rile up the BLM movement. They were active in trying to discredit the Trump victory. The problem, though, and it's not a small one, is that conservative media has actively chosen to align with Russian propaganda to help their side. The party? Well it's divided.

So you post about exporting out of the us was just to point out that its exported to Canada for processing only and then brought back to the US was to convey what? And why bother if that export was nothing more then for processing and nothing else? You sucked up Sean's Clinton selling to hostel countries and ran with it. Problem is you didn't check into anything he said.

So what you are saying is that a woman isn't fit to be president and was only chosen because they wanted to be progressive? Meanwhile we had a female Prime Minister that you people absolutely adore to this day, well not you personally since you are one of the evangelicals who think women are not quite fit to do anything but being slaves in a household.

Hillary would have been the most qualified president the US has had since Roosevelt. Her qualifications in politics and education are unquestionable for anyone but an evangelical or Islamist.

But here's the rub, she lost. And she lost because she was perceived to be a worse choice than our current President....unbelievable as that may seem. Don't lionize her ffs...she was a f*cking horrible candidate and she lost to someone who was considered only marginally less horrible.

Yes she did and Trump cannot get over it, nor can his base... She's all they ever talk about.

Mueller indicts Manafort and Gates? BUT HILLARY!!!!!

She didn't lose the popular vote, she lost the systematic vote that is just majority rules in some places and in other places your vote doesn't count at all.

I note that you have absolutely nothing but conjecture to counter my statement, perhaps I don't get this because where I'm from we hold elections where policies rule rather than popularity contests where slogans are what is important but could you tell me how she wasn't qualified?

Or at least admit that qualified or not, policies bad or good doesn't matter, it's the slogans and attitude that matter in the popularity contests you call "elections".

Just voicing my opinion of your "nothing but conjecture" opinion....but we can't have that now can we! And I'm sure that where you live is most awesome...all rainbows and unicorns...where sound policies rule...like Brexit. lol

Slowtard, the claim was made about no uranium being exported and I provided proof that there was and gave the name of the company that obtained the license to do that. Unlike you and Team Banana, I actually spend a few moments looking into claims. Another butthurt Libtard that gets mad when their game of inferring goes wrong. I could have thrown in the questions about foreign exports but that wasn't mentioned by alien42 and so I didn't. Have you checked into what Senator Barrasso said? Highly doubtful. Try this link about exports: http://thehill.com/policy/national-...deal-led-to-some-exports-to-europe-memos-show. Cliff: NRC and Uranium One said some uranium did get exported to Europe. Looks like it went from no exports, to exported to only Canada, and now some being exported to Europe and then ????.

I'm glad you proudly waked right into that one.

The goal posts must be moved at all costs. Otherwise the cognitive dissonance would kill them. They could give a shit that the Obama administration gave 20% of our uranium supply to Russia. But if Trump had done it....well...that would indeed be different!

They were all in for the Donald during the campaign. When they weren't concern trolling the Bernie faction their messages were indistinguishable from those of the Alt-right & the Repub party.

They will, of course, stir any shit they can in general beyond that but they were highly focused on helping the Donald.

The fact that Trump voters won't even address the idea that they were on the same side of the election as Russian mind benders is quite telling. They're not yet willing to admit that they've been conned yet again. Cuz Freedumb.

All of which has nothing to do with Russian meddling in the 2016 election on the behalf of Trump. You already knew that, right?

Another idiotic platitude delivered by the king of bullshit and "both sides" and this time coupled with a "buh BRITAIN"!

Just when I thought you couldn't be more pathetic... You prove me absolutely wrong.

And this is a KNOWN lie, one that everyone but the most far right of the alt-right who cannot for the world of them comprehend facts as they are already know are lies.

No he did NOT give 20% of the uranium supply to anyone but the US. Period. End of discussion.

Once you figure out why, there is no need to further embarrass you on the matter and that is why the above "End of discussion" is actually just me being very kind to your incredulously dumb arse.

I guess past performance is not an indicator of future outcomes? Democrats were involved with the Russians before and will be again.
 
Glad I exceeded your expectations. Cheers.

You did more than that with your "he gave 20% of US uranium to Russia" comment.

You have now actively shown that you are nothing but a bot propped for propaganda which you will believe without question. An empty mind filled with bullshit and nothing else because this particular point has been discredited for a fucking year by now and over 100 times in this very forum and I do NOT think you missed it.

Which makes you a worthless propaganda sock puppet without a mind of his own.

Obama didn't personally handover the uranium, but the deal occurred during his administration. True or false?

No deal handing over any amount of Uranium to Russians ever occured and YOU KNOW THAT! You have been educated in various threads on this very topic and yet you keep insisting.

It's like the blind retard dog walking into a wall over and over and over and over again and no one worries about brain damage because there is no coherent thought in that brain any more.

Are you saying that the Obama administration actually didn't give 20% ownership of our uranium extraction capacity to Russia? What am I missing here through all the condescension?
