The fact that Russia or any other country can meddle in our elections should not be the concern. The divisiveness and gullibility of the American citizenry that makes this possible is the real concern.
So a 4-year-old boy gets shot to death in East Chicago and the shooter only gets three years. Seriously? No wonder our society has a gun violence problem.
Jared Kushner, a family member of the president, who has no foreign policy experience, no security clearance, and is currently under criminal investigation, delivers a speech at the Jerusalem embassy opening, praising Netanyahu, who is also under criminal investigation. This is truly bizarro world.
