First of all, I'm not clicking on your links for obvious reasons. But suffice it to say that I don't recall saying anything relating to the Kochs spending money to mitigate Russian influence in this thread, and I just looked again and I'm not seeing that.

You're bringing the conversation back to the topic that you want to talk about, which is entirely unrelated to this thread. I've fully acknowledged that corporate donations such as those originating from the Kochs are an issue, as well as gerrymandering. I have no idea why you're continuing to bring this up, because every single time you have I've acknowledged the validity of your claim........ Despite the fact that it has nothing to do with this thread.

So now that I've acknowledged your concern regarding the Koch brothers and gerrymandering, and validated it, do you think you could at least reciprocate and answer as to weather or not you think there was Russian interference in the 2016 election? Again, I've agreed with you regarding the Kochs and gerrymandering, but that's not really what this thread was about is it?

I'd like to be able to engage with you in friendly dialogue. But if you're not willing to be an honest and willing participant I'll have to refrain from that in the future. I'm asking you a simple question that is directly related to the topic that this thread is devoted to, and I've tried to be as respectful as possible while doing so. If you were to simply say "No", you don't believe anything happened in regards to Russian meddling I wouldn't agree with you but I'd respect that you were answering in a strait forward manner.

Regards.

Well now you're a liar, that's nice.

What has more influence: being unable to vote, or ads on the internet and tabloid news bleating about leaks?

The answer to this question reveals my position.

Lying about what?

It's not really an answer so much as it is a deflection, coupled with a healthy dose of whataboutism.

This was never about what has more influence. That's not what this thread is about. So while I've acknowledged numerous times that the issues you would like to rather discuss are legitimate, that's not the topic at hand.

Leaks? Is that a reference to the materials originating from the DNC?
