(6,916 posts)See above about Haseltine.
No offense intended, but people who write in Psychology Today are not serious national security professionals.
And even if you take Haseltine at face value, he's only speculating.
Finally, he fails to note that Rogers (the real head of NSA) and Comey both said there was no evidence vote tallies were changed.
It's totally plausible that the Russians intentionally did not change vote tallies because that would have given Hillary actual legitimacy for being the real winner of the election.
Far better for them to do what we know they did:
- Alter voter registrations
- Voter suppression via propaganda
- "Hacking minds" via propaganada
as that is deniable.
