3. Someone on NPR just dropped the "It's a shame Obama didn't tell us about this in 2016".

I think there may have been a certain Kentucky turtle tipping the scale.

Former Vice President Joe Biden also has complained that the White House wanted Republicans to join in a bipartisan statement announcing and condemning the interference campaign. In Biden's telling, however, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., wouldn't go along.

But that didn't stop then-Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., from alluding publicly to the Russian campaign in a letter to then-FBI Director James Comey. And Comey reportedly wanted to announce the active measures in an op-ed column, as Newsweek reported in March 2017. Two sources with knowledge about the matter told Newsweek that Obama administration officials blocked the effort.

There's no way to know what difference it might have made for U.S. officials to have confirmed and condemned the Russian interference in real time.

4. This is the problem with expecting patriotism and oath-keeping behavior from McConnell et al.

Biden needs to explain how he’ll do things differently if he’s elected, not simply say he has good working relationships with them and can get things done. He couldn’t get that absolutely essential thing done. Armchair quarterback here, but Obama/Biden should’ve stepped forward, even if alone, with this critical info that the American public deserved to know.

5. If Comey could make an issue of emails etc then Russian interference and drump

involvement ought to have been exposed.

McConnell is the traitor as much as drump
