No, they do not realize how transparent they are. Most are old and still use the ancient methods that worked 50 years ago of blaming the Russians. I think most of them are pretty stupid, really, not much of an i.q. Hillary is mentally unstable. You do not have to have a doctors degree to make that diagnosis. Her lies, her actions all point to an unstable woman, corrupt to the very core of her being. The entire media is focusing on who hacked instead of what was in the emails. I simply have a hard time expressing how revolting our media is in their support of the cabal for decades. Curse words are inadequate. I used to contemplate how the people of the Soviet Union felt about Pravda. It seemed so oppressive. Now we know, we see, we feel and I hate. Obama has become the most fake, two faced, phony President in history. Bush was evil but he could not hide it and Obama could for a few years but now we see he is so disgusting. My litmus test of an honorable politician or just an average citizen, is if they support Hillary Clinton. If they do, they lay open the emptiness of their mind and soul.
