http://time.com/4619282/donald-trump-russia-hacking-us-sanctions/(PALM BEACH, Fla.)U.S. President-elect Donald Trump on Wednesday suggested that the United States and Russia lay to rest the controversy over Moscows computer hacking of Democratic Party computers, saying, We ought to get on with our lives.
(snip)
Asked by reporters if the United States should sanction Russia, Trump replied: I think we ought to get on with our lives. I think that computers have complicated lives very greatly. The whole age of computer has made it where nobody knows exactly whats going on.
Trump made his remarks at Mar-a-Lago, his seaside Florida resort where he is spending the Christmas and New Years holidays while also interviewing candidates for administration jobs.
Trump said he was not familiar with remarks earlier on Wednesday by Republican Senator Lindsey Graham, who said Russia and President Vladimir Putin should expect tough sanctions for the cyber attacks.

The orange menace has not spoken with members of Congress about one of the most important issues of this crazy time. 'cause he's getting all his updates from Pooty Poot? Get over it? Not likely. Watch him lift the sanctions for his BFF first thing.

My husband and I were trying to decide tonight, why isn't this the biggest story of our lifetimes?
A foreign government deliberately influenced our election? How can they just take a pass on covering this?
