Regarding Russian Interference In America’s Election

I expect every nation to act in its self-interest and that will usually involve spying and interference in other countries. So if Russia or Israel tries to influence our elections, or China hacks our government and private websites to gain an advantage, I’m not surprised or outraged. I assume that America does similar things. I assume that it is America’s responsibility to protect itself from outside interference and that if the interference occurs and damages America, that is the fault of America’s government for not protecting us.
