Donald Trump sent the worst tweet of his presidency this morning
- chopin 8y agoI wonder why US still insist on using proven insecure technology to carry out elections. If "the system is blinking" why not return to simple paper ballots? It almost seems that the US wants to be hurt... As an European, the style of the article feels strange for a serious news outlet. Its not only the tone but also being bluntly partisan, which feels awkward.
- ohiovr 8y agoSince the beginning certain people had hoped to find a smoking gun with a vote counting machine that would show unequivocally that the Russians were pulling the lever for Trump. As far as I can tell that hasn’t happened. Russia has found that it is more effective to spend a million dollars for bloggers than it is with ridiculous excercises like dropping leaflets from planes. Russia is influential in our national affairs I used to be into conspiracy minded sites and the Russians never do wrong but america is evil attitude is very strong and it feels planted. Back in the 80s a kgb defector named Bezmenov explained his job then and it seems like little has actually changed. The problem I see is the usa also uses the same simple tactics of subversive and destabilizing political manipulation of other nations like Russia does. It isn’t good that we don’t actually result with good. So there is no ends that could justify the means here. We have to consider we aren’t the good guys. I am sorry to offend anyone with this.. As for cnn, washington post, or even the nyt: they will never see a ray of hope with trump. The real news is if Fox News turns their back on President Chaos. Reuters, NPR, Bloomberg, and Financial Times carry more weight for me any more.
