The idea that Russia hacked the 2016 presidential election is so absurd that there has to be something more to the Democrat and liberal media panic. Why are they parting company with reality?

I am aware of course that liberals have an uncomfortable relationship with reality at the best of times, but since the inauguration they, and their deep state allies in the CIA and FBI, have become unhinged.

Part of the explanation lies in their paranoia about Russia. One former CIA analyst, whose analytical abilities were clearly limited, popped up on Sky News recently to describe Russia as an “adversary”. The Russian Federation is in no meaningful sense an adversary of the United States.

Unlike Germany, Russia is not engaged in a quasi-war with the USA. Russia has not sponsored assassinations on US soil, as Germany has done, repeatedly. Russia has not brought down US aircraft in international airspace, unlike the People’s Republic of China. Russia is not seeking to encroach on US spheres of influence. The Cold War is over, folks. It ended in 1991, although some in the CIA and FBI are obviously struggling to catch up. “The Americans”, great TV series though it is, is set in the 1980s, not the present day.

The KGB was broken up at the end of the Cold War. Russia is now a democracy and Vladimir Putin is her elected president. He was elected in a free and fair election, which if anything was fairer than the last US election. The meddling in the 2016 election came not from Russia, but from closer to home. Democrat-run states like California permitted large numbers of illegal aliens to vote. I suspect that on a true analysis President Trump actually won a majority amongst American voters.
