No doubt. My only worry is this return to cold war rhetoric w/ Russia. It's a weird situation where I'm more concerned w/ Saudi Arabia's influence on our elections. Wonderful "ally" right?
You have a point. In reality though, our real enemy is China, and the rest are just pests. I've always thought we should just withdraw from all this nonsense, sit back and say you guys worry about your own problems ... mess with us and we nuke your ass. We spend way too damn much money pretending and I mean pretending, to be the world's policeman when no one ever elected us to do so.

You’ve taken words out of mouth. Phuking nail on the head.
And we do everything we can to influence elections all over the world, too. Nothing new to see here, and never has been. But I do think there may be something to this Russian hackers using social media for other things, too. Like this, demoralizing the troops. Whether this was Russia or not, I'm sure it's a new tactic in the arsenal of world geopolitics.
