Some interesting comments in this article. Bottom line: Obama was POTUS, Commander in Chief during the time Russia messed with our election. Interesting statements: "I guess if I had failed to stop Russia from marching into Crimea, making a mess in Syria, and hacking our democracy I'd be looking to blame someone else, too.
But the Mueller report makes it clear that the Russian interference failure was Obama's alone. He was the commander-in-chief when all of this happened. In 2010, he and Eric Holder, his Attorney General, declined to prosecute Julian Assange, who then went on to help Russia hack the Democratic National Committee's emails in 2016. He arguably chose to prioritize his relationship with Putin vis-à-vis Iran over pushing back against Russian election interference that had been going on for at least two years."

True, but it won't get reported that way. President Obama to Democrats was their savior, and to Republicans he was a complete failure. The truth of course is always somewhere in the middle. Now what I fail to understand is why hacking the DNC's emails is always described as "hacking our election." I know there was a misinformation campaign, etc., but this is nothing new. It is simply getting more attention this go around because the Democrats were clearly trying to distract everyone from the fact that what Wikileaks did was broadcast the Democrats dirty laundry. Such as their efforts to essentially cheat during debates by getting Clinton the questions beforehand, among *many* other unethical things. For some reason, this always gets ignored by the media, and overshadowed with the broad misleading statement, "The Russians hacked/interfered with our election." And of course, now that the Mueller Report confirmed what many already knew: That President Trump had nothing to do with this hacking/misinformation effort, they are quickly pivoting to obstruction... After two years of trying to convince everyone that President Trump was somehow a Russian asset--a truly ridiculous notion to anyone in the know. So now they are trying to pin all their hopes of destroying him on this weak obstruction narrative... Obstruction of an investigation into a crime that never occurred. Let that sink in. Of course, there is no reasoning with some people. Fine, they all hate President Trump. But they are truly letting that hatred blind them and make them look stupid. I never considered myself Republican or Democrat, but I truly feel like Democrats are completely losing their minds with this nonsense.

Sadly, SSgt GG-15 RET Jim Lint, nothing will ever happen to this guy nor to any of his cronies, regardless of what appears in the Mueller report or any other source for that matter.
