20. Makes me ill, as well.

First of all, it is the media (and others, of course) absolutely spitting in the face of the men and women of the intelligence agencies who put their lives on the line to keep us safe.

Secondly, it's simply unrealistic that any news agency should be going along with Trump's obvious attempts to make the hacking nothing when we all know it is a GREAT BIG SOMETHING. The hacking, to me, indicates that our very lives are at stake. What's next? Is Russia going to hack into a missile guidance system?

On a different note, I was listening to CNN yesterday afternoon while driving and Dana Bash and Wolf Blitzer and one other commentator were discussing Joe Biden's call out of Donald Trump to "grow up". According to all three of them, Biden doing that meant that Biden was stooping to Trump's level. What the absolute freak does that mean?

No mention of the fact that Trump shouldn't be acting like a child because he's about to be inaugurated as President of the United States of America.

I was screaming in the car. Biggest bunch of bullshit I've ever witnessed.
