What did Trump know and when did he know it?

The Answer to those questions is that Donald Trump had to have known about the Russian/Putin run cyber attacks
in July of 2016. Because in the following video Trump talks about:

* We don’t know if it was Russia doing the hacking. Nothing to see here move along ... nothing is here move along.

* The hacking of a major party’s computers (DNC). How did Trump know the DNC had been hacked?

* Trump called for Russia to hack Hillary Clinton’s campaign and State Dept. records. Which is a crime.




And in 2013 he also called for the hacking of President Obama.

ObamaCare is a disaster and Snowden is a spy who should be executed-but if it and he could reveal
Obama's records,I might become a major fan (a trump tweet)

"The US intelligence community conclusion that Moscow had mounted the cyber-attack against the
United States as part of an operation to help elect Trump president.”

McConnell was in on it too. I have always known that republicans cheat but
now to see that Russia helped them too is staggering. I wonder how many
down ticket races were messed with?

Hillary winning in a landlslide

Taking back the senate

Picking up seats in the house too.

Cross check, voting machine "problems," Comey, a useless media, non stop and unneeded
investigsations into HRC, and Russian hacking and you have a coup.
