Is there really anyone who isn't trying to influence the U.S. elections? Why single out Russia for criticism? President Obama himself is trying to sway voters to vote for Hillary Clinton. The New York Times recently released Donald Trumps's 1995 Tax returns in an attempt to influence voters to vote for Hillary Clinton instead of Donald Trump. Then just a few days ago, the Washington Post released a video of Trump's 2005 crude sexual comments which provoked outrage among the public and resulted in the plummeting of his poll numbers. All these media organizations are, in one way or the other, attempting to influence the U.S. elections. So why blame Russia when others are doing exactly the same thing?
