Are you referring to US citizens of Russian ancestry? If so, then yes, they have the right to vote in US elections.

no, i'm talking about russian citizens, any russian citizen that doesn't have us citizenship. or for that matter any citizen that doesn't hold the whole as more important than a foreign influence getting a vote in a US matter.


why not give iran and pakistan a vote too; if we're going to give russian's a vote?

If they don't have US citizenship, then they can't vote in US elections.

But if we're talking about foreign influence, then we're talking about more than just exercising the right to vote.

Should foreigners be allowed freedom of speech in the US? Should foreigners be allowed access to US websites and social media during election campaign seasons? Should they be allowed to express their opinions on US politics, lest some Americans might actually be influenced by foreign opinions? How much influence does Hollywood have, and how many foreign-born individuals are currently working in the entertainment industry? How many foreign-born individuals work in the news media, which also hold great influence over the electoral process and the direction of US politics?

This is why the Democrats have sanctuary cities. If an illegal Russian alien was to vote in a Federal election in a Sanctuary City, they will be protected, if they vote Democrat. Violent crimes and repeat offenders are not the only crimes forgiven, if one is with the program.

Lol...may I say something?
Putin doesn't give a damn about the United States.
He has more serious issues to think of, like the economic problems in his country, his relations with the European Union, the Turkish question....

Russia is an European Nation that has more to share with us Europeans.
Americans' protagonism mania can be slightly excessive at times.

I think a lot of it is to strike at Americans' historical mistrust and suspicion of Russia in general. If America didn't have some external "enemy" to focus on and distract the people's attention, then we would invent one.

America is a pretty big influence as a nation. Of course Putin cares about America.

If someone votes for Trump, they are.

Putin clearly has wanted Trump to win, clearly is willing to try and sabotage our electioneering process in order to do so, and Trump clearly refuses to criticize former KGB head Vladimir Putin for anything. I though the Republican Party stood against Communism, but it's become increasingly clear that this is no longer the case.

Before you go to bed, do you check under
it to see if Putin or Trump is hiding there?
