(17,865 posts)the more the Republicans will own it. I can already see ways to attack my sitting representative on this issue (Blum).
Here is his joke about the DNC hacking. I hope our candidate shoves it up his butt.

(19,666 posts)Has been using every power of his office to dismantle and disrupt the government our taxes pay for since his first day.
It is obvious he is not working for the American people.

(199 posts)Republicans only care about power and money, and an independent commission is contrary to those objectives. It ain't gonna happen.

(17,984 posts)that makes some people want congress to investigate over an independent commission? Are they repukes who want partisanship to play a role? Are they people who want to believe in our institutions and feel that an independent commission means congress has failed? I just don't understand why anyone would be against an independent commission.

(82,849 posts)That's pretty good, I'd say. Of course, this will be dismissed by President Trump as one of those "fake" polls and the popular media will simply accept that and try to move on.
Let's not let them, okay? Keep calling your elected officials (even the Republicans), and remind them that 73% of Americans want this looked into to ensure the integrity of our elections from hostile foreign interference.
