I think you misunderstand what I was saying Dowly. I am in no way suggesting that they didn't try or that they won't try again. Quite the opposite. What I am saying is that now the Russians see very clearly the relationship between the antiTrump resistance in the American intellegence agencies and their counterparts in the progressive media. They see how easy it is to lead these types by the nose and manipulate their messaging to the public. Russia's attempts to influence voters would be greatly reduced if some Americans would stop cooperating with them.
