There is an angle to this narrative that I can't believe that the MSM isnt grasping on.

The computers that were hacked were: Hillary Clinton's unauthorized private email server and the DNC's networks-  not US government networks.

It is not the President's job to use the brute force of foreign policy, sanctions, and kicking out diplomats to protect non-US government resources.  These resources were (a)unauthorized, (b)not government secured, and (c)nothing to do with US Government business.

The proper avenue would be for Clinton (her server was private after all) and the DNC to go to the FBI and have them investigate like any other citizen would - not have the President call in the CIA personally and use foreign policy to exact revenge for his DNC friends.

The media should be grabbing on this side of the narrative.  McCain is known anti-Russian war hawk, and the DNC and eviscerated Clinton and Obama are using the Govt resources for their own objectives.
