What do we think of President Obama's handling of this Russian interference? I'm a bit flummoxed by

19. I think that President Obama did the right thing by going to the Congressional leadership with

the data the intelligence community had compiled and tried to obtain a bipartisian response to the Russian's conduct in trying to influence the outcome of our election. The fact that the GOP, including McConnell, screamed foul and accused Obama of trying to politicizing of the election is the GOP showing who they truly are. They have no scruples and will do whatever is needed to win an election even by hook or by crook. They have no principles or morals. They have proven this time and time again throughout the 2016 campaign by licking Trump's boots no matter what he did or said. They were willing to ride his coattails to victory no matter what he did or said.

As far as your point about President Obama's lack of a public response. Had Obama gone rogue in the likes of Comey (who BTW went rogue not once, but twice and seemed to suffer no repercussions, though not surprising for white men of power who seem to have this innate right to break or ignore any rules they feel fit to break or ignore, which Obama never had the luxury of) and discussed the CIA findings publicly, prior to the election, he would have been publicly accused by the GOP of trying to influence the election outcome and Hillary would have taken the brunt of the blame and accused of trying to influence the election by the same people who have accused her of being untrustworthy and dishonest and wouldn't have voted for Hillary in the first place, but would have now had a different reason to hate her.
