The question is, did Trump and his campaign work with Russia in the meddling.

Originally posted by Hank Hill View PostRussia, just as the United States and numerous other nations, conduct psyops in the form of media manipulation, social media spamming, etc., to foment instability. IF Russia had a preference for Trump it wasn't as a pay-for-play scheme, but because they viewed it as damaging a regime that had them under sanctions. It turns out that Trump getting elected didn't change those sanctions, but when viewed logically I don't see why anyone would be surprised that a rival nation would potentially favor a candidate that didn't speak about them as being an outright enemy - as Hillary did.
On behalf of the U.S. its a lot of the pot calling the kettle black, we have not just engaged in covert propaganda to influence foreign elections, but we have outright overthrown democratically elected leaders and propped up dictatorships that favor our regional interests. The whole "do as I say but not as I do" approach to the world is just hypocritical and Americans shouldn't make the assumption of always having the moral high ground - disregarding that other nations have a vested interest in the global political game too. In the intelligence community I think this is widely understood to be common practice and, in general, I think the U.S. is the most successful at blocking foreign influence in our political process when compared to other western nations.
