I just think that’s beyond the pale.”). I agree with Panetta regarding Trump's support (and Whell's from my POV) for Russian hacking. YMMV.

Fine, but I just happen to object to encouraging or supporting Russian hacks of our electoral process. I'm funny like that.

I'm sure you would interpret it that way. Most of your "interpretations" of my posts have been pretty self-serving.

Most of your interpretations have been defense of treason.

I suppose from your perspective - loopy as it is - that's a true statement.

My statement proceeds, by short and obvious steps, directly from the constitution. It is practically self-evident.
