The last paragraph says it all.

So what’s most deeply frightening about this whole story isn’t what Russia did or didn’t do. It’s that Trump’s response and the Republican blessing of it is Trump’s most powerful demonstration that absolutely all bets are off. If he’ll do this, there’s nothing he won’t do, and nothing the GOP won’t let him get away with.

2. Trump has proved nothing but subservient to his master Putin

3. Let us all remember tRump's enabler, the KGOP

As you said, it says it all and it's what scared the hell out of 66 million of us.

All bets are off at this point, less the predictable KGOP blessing of whatever unconstitutional ideas he can dream up.

4. Never forget who owns the KGOP either...

that would be the kochtopus/exxon/carlyle cabal. So we're getting hit from all sides, it's not just that the cheato is gaining his position with illegal meddling, this was a years long orchestrated coup.

Someone call 911, I think the KGOP's erection has lasted too long.

5. Cracked.com made an interesting observation that I'll misquote here:

In essence, they noted that either Trump is willfully complicit in Russia's efforts to fuck up the election and undermine our democracy, or else he was unaware of Russia's actions but is totally on board with that agenda anyway.

And the latter option may be more terrifying than the former.
