    I don’t necessarily doubt it, personally. I think Russia would be foolish to give up the same tools that the US uses all the time. But I think a bigger part of it was the fact that Russia hacked the RNC and has stuff on a lot of people. They hacked the DNC, too, and then WikiLeaks released their emails.

    I think a lot of people just blew off Russian election interference as an excuse from the Democrats, and it was certainly used that way, but looking at current events, why wouldn’t Putin try that before it escalated to what’s going on now?
