Regarding President Trump's silence, Peter Baker added that "this administration has taken a number of actions against Russia in the past; it's expelled diplomats, imposed sanctions.

Jeremy Bash: This Is An Epic National Security Crisis | Andrea Mitchell | MSNBC

[howardmulvihill]

That's what happens when you fire professionals and let the "Yes Men" into jobs for which they are not qualified!

[kevz]

Trump and his followers did this...there needs to be consequences.

[PauloRoberto-buby]

Georgia VOTE FOR DEMOCRAT Jan 5 2021!

[parslowpongbert]

Putin ‘electing’ trump as president was the epic national security crisis.

[normanbrown]

Some how smells like some one gave them the password to pay off debts owed, but find time to talk about water usage in the bathroom, let's ask the WH

[kjsalomonsen]

Maybe this is why Trump would let anyone set in on those conversations with Putin.

[vera]

They knew, they allowed this. I wouldn't be surprised if they sold access.

[YZW]

We’ve never been weaker. The president is more concerned about himself than anything.

[marcusmaximus]

Back door left open when golfing, mcdonald's run, trip to a church building with an upside down bible, trip round hospital whilst still being treated for covid, super spreader event's, twitter and so on and so on...

[PattyViviendo]

We have to stop playing stupid. It’s clear trump gave them access.

[gellewarsame]

Nothing shock or surprise me when i Remembered Helsinki Summit.To me was enough, but to you, Ask your self what would happen for 4 more yrs.

[sg]

They knew- trump knew, he just don’t care, he cares more about what Putin thinks.

[jamesneuzil]

It wouldn't surprise me if Trump didn't open the door for Russia..

[Beafree]

Its not that “Russia thinks, ” they had access because of Trump. Why else is he putting yes men everywhere and why else is he not saying a word?

[turtlecat]

It's pass time to stop or better yet arrest trump. America will regret not taking action now.

[desireemartinez]

And it has Trump's name all over it...this is scary..

[Cleanblack]

Should have fully impeached that guy. He was guilty all along in my opinion.

[slangster]

Most expensive military in the history of the world couldn't see this coming, or looked the other way?

[okkietrooy]

I would not be surprised If Trump has knowlingly or non-knowlingly made this cyberattack easier by providing info to Putin in their private conversations. Things like codes, passwords etc.

[JuanCruz-geqq]

I think Trumf himself gave the Russians the passwords😂😂
