They did not fix the last one either or Brexit. Stop peddling lies all the time Mr K!

They certainly tried even if the result of that attempt is disputed:

IRA is the 'St. Petersburg-based Internet Research Agency' in the context of the report.

Those aren't mutually exclusive things.

Why do think Russia wanted Trump as Presisent ?(whether they succeeded in influencing things is a separate issue)
Weak, maybe? He'd cause more division in the country?business interests? they had something on him? Its a mystery......

Because Hillary was a warmonger. We definitely avoided WW 3 with her loss. But Russia Russia Russia-All bullshit as usual. I’m not arguing with you or others on this, I said all I said about 2016 election in 2017, 2018...., the result was legitimate and proper. Now back on topic, which is this 2020 election!

I would not even concede that Russia wanted Trump. Russia wants division in the US, whether Trump or Hillary won it wouldn't matter as long as the sides hate each other.

The two are not mutually exclusive. As Ben posted earlier, Russia did want Trump to win

Russia wants division in the US but its focus indicates a preference for Trump.

I have given a directive. Follow it.

If we are going to start raising old skeletons on the 2016 election then I’m going to close this thread.

The Covid vaccine results? We need a court investigation as to why Pfizer only announced the results after the election!
