Is McCain going to hold a news conference with the proof the Russian election wasn't "Free and Fair?"
Maybe we should appoint a special counsel to look into the Russian election...

I don't recall you making a peep back in 2012... nor McCain.

Did Putin just attempt to kill a couple Russians in the UK in 2012? Was an English cop still in serious condition because Putin just attempted to kill Russians in London in 2012? Did Putin invade the Ukraine in 2012?
Do you know apples and oranges are two different fruits?

Oh my...you mean countries sometimes go into other countries to kill people?
And there is sometimes collateral damage?
I hope the USA has never done such a thing...

Your absurdist political philosophy in the wake of the Trump dumpster fire:
Trump hasn't ended the world, so who cares?
The US probably has done the same thing in the past, so who cares?
So what? Who cares? Big deal!
I get that you have no recourse other than pure dismissiveness, but that doesn't make it any less pathetic.

The distinction between Obama's "congratulations" to Putin, vs Trump's:
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/20/u...in-russia.html
Quote:
In fact, both Presidents Barack Obama and George W. Bush called to congratulate Mr. Putin after previous election victories.
In Mr. Obama’s case, said Michael A. McFaul, who served as ambassador to Moscow during the Obama administration, there was lively internal debate about whether, and when, the president should make that call. Mr. Obama waited several days after Mr. Putin’s election in March 2012 before calling.
After that election, the State Department issued a statement in which it said, “The United States congratulates the Russian people on the completion of the presidential elections, and looks forward to working with the president-elect after the results are certified and he is sworn in.”
The language, Mr. McFaul said, was carefully chosen to applaud the Russian people for voting without praising Mr. Putin for winning. The statement also noted the reservations of outside observers about the “partisan use of government resources, and procedural irregularities on Election Day,” though it credited the Russian authorities for reforms after a widely criticized parliamentary election the previous December.
