So far, most of this was what we already knew or strongly speculated; that Trump was under investigation, that Trump operatives were working directly with the Russians, that some or all of them were taking money, quid pro quo, for “help” to win the election, including the lifting of sanctions. But as I sit here, listening to many answers of “I cannot answer that,” or various derivations of that response, one glaring, jaw-dropping response that doesn’t seem to be getting much attention is, when expanding on the answer about Russians not “directly interfering with the election,” Comey admitted that the Russians WERE interfering with voter suppression and registration through various channels, including private voter registration companies.
This is outrageous and something that we’ve witnessed in not just this election, but in many past election cycles. The only way that republicans can win is by stifling the right of Americans to vote, and we as democrats, need to bring this to the forefront and double up our efforts to combat this.
