Sean Duffy: Russia Was a ‘Miserable’ Failure If They Only Hacked the DNC and Podesta

‘The problem that we have is, we haven’t seen any reports yet’

RUSH EXCERPT:

DUFFY: “President Obama said to Donald Trump stop whining, mag the case to the American people. Never did he say Russia was involved in this election and now after the election the president’s come out and we see leaks from the intelligence department, media reports have come out as well about Russian involvement. The problem that we have is, we haven’t seen any reports yet. The intelligence community hasn’t come to the hill and briefed deb Nunez, nor senator Ron Johnson, chairman of homeland security in the Senate so we have great reservation how this played out and I think a key point is, one, if Russia was involved, Russia’s hacking, I want to know that. I think the American people deserve to know that but the truth is, I agree with Barack Obama. We had a free and fair election, all votes that were cast were counted and the DNC hack or the hack in to Hillary Clinton’s email through John Podesta, nobody cared about the attacks. This didn’t drive the opinion. They looked at the economy, security and strong leadership. They didn’t care that the DNC was involved helping Hillary Clinton over Bernie Sanders or some of the internal scandals and strive inside the Hillary Clinton campaign that came out through the Podesta emails. Those were nonfactors so the hack didn’t impact the outcome but that they were trying, we should actually know about that and I support any investigation to find out what involvement they are trying to have. One other point, Jake, Russia should be pretty good at hacking and if we’re going to have some influence, try to have some real influence on the election. They were miserable failures if they just did the DNC and Podesta.”
