1. You need to listen to this, @MedvedevRussiaE. You think Putin was out of control with the hacking. You think it has put Russia on a collision course with the United States. You are right.

Someday, there will be a real patriot back in the White House. And on that day....
2...millions of Americans will be calling for retaliation against Russia for its insane attempt to undermine global democracy. A patriot will declare that we are responding with a cyber war involving the full force and fury of the United States, to protect us from Russia, to....
3...prevent the possibility that some idiot in the future will declare that Russia is out friend because it has been feeding him millions, or because he is so much of a narcissist he is more concerned with how people will think of him if the Russian hacking is acknolwedged....
4...millions of us will call for cyberattacks on Russian infrastructure, on the Kremlin. The Kremlin emails that were obtained by Crimean fighters working with American intelligence - which were then posted so you could see them during the Obama Administration - will just be ...
5...the beginning. The call for millions will be to bring down the Russian government, to inflict such pain on this nation that it will never again interfere with American democracy. And if we have to suffer some to wage this war, we will do so. There are more patriots than....
6...there are useful idiots. We know what happened. My sources have been telling me - from across the west - since 2016. So, @MedvedevRussiaE: I recognize that you face great danger by acting on your recognition that Putin has endangered the future of Russia by pursuing this...
7...insane idea. Trump will be gone, Putin will not have reconstituted the Soviet empire - there is not time - and America will react in rage. Everyone will know what happened. Putin will not have a lapdog to cover for him. If you dont act, you will become Putin's enemy and he...
8...will wreck you anyway. Look what he did to Ivanov when he discovered he opposed the hacking campaign. Look what he did with Vaino for running this insanity - even through Turkey. Western intelligence knows that you oppose Putin on this. They have heard you discuss your....
9...fears that Russia will be so compromised, that the backlash from the United States will be so severe, that you will never be allowed here again and be isolated from the west. You are right. When a patriot returns to the Oval Office, millions will call to destroy Russia in...
10...a cyberwar unlike any ever waged. We will blow Russia back to the stone age by shutting down its technology, exposing all of its secrets. We will accept your response. Protecting democracy is worth the price.

Stop Putin. Be a hero @MedvedevRussiaE. Or watch Russia collapse
11...and yes, followers on this feed. I just revealed a bunch of classified information. Because when you have a president who is selling this country down the river, someone needs to scream reality from the rooftops.
