Occasionally "partisan nonsense" turns out to be absolutely true. Time will tell. I'd like to hear a rational explanation from Trump supporters as to why he's downplaying this, why it took so long to respond at all, and why he's diverting blame to China and attempting to split up the NSA and U.S. Cyber Command. He's contradicting his own people. Who does that benefit?
- mslip 6y agoNot a Trump supporter, but I’ve been trying to find direct evidence as to this attack being from Russia and I haven’t found anything beyond speculative statements. Even if this attack isn’t from Russia, they’re the best country the US can blame because there are no political repercussions if they’re wrong. We don’t conduct any trade with them (unlike China) and have already laid down heavy sanctions.

- dragonwriter 6y ago> But the US isn't blaming Russia, the media is. Mike Pompeo isn't Secretary of State of CNN.
- Mc_Big_G 6y agoSecretary of State Mike Pompeo blamed Russia.
- mslip 6y agoRight I saw that but his statement was rather short and vague, my point is I haven’t seen them directly cite how it was Russia. Microsoft beautifully described the attack itself in a blog post recently, I’m pretty ignorant with cyber security but I wonder why they can’t show the connection to Russia with more rigor.
