Russian internference in our election requires a response

It should either be economic or something more forceful like turning off the electricity at a Russian military base or two. Something. And it needs to be done by the current president because the next one has openly sided with the Russians on this.

A political party that sides with an enemy that points nuclear missiles at our country. A planet that relies on mutual assured destruction, a country that toys with theocracy in a sea of radical theocrats, the list goes on and on and finally all problems of our own making and neglect.
