Ron Paul: ‘We don’t have very much room for condemning’ Russian election hacking

Ron Paul believes it’s hypocritical for us to condemn Russia for the kinds of acts we’ve committed.

“I think it is politics more than anything else,” he said of global election interference on Fox Business Network Wednesday. “This really is nothing new. It’s like, guess what – someone may have done A, B, C.”

“I’m sure the Russians are interfering,” added Paul, a three-time White House hopeful. “We are interfering all the time.”

“If you review the history of how many elections we’ve been involved with, how many countries we’ve invaded and how many people we’ve killed to have our guy in, I’ll tell you what – we don’t have very much room for condemning anybody else.”Paul said Russia did not noticeably influence the heated 2016 race between Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, who is now the president-elect.

“I think it’s insignificant. But I don’t think it made any difference. But when you lose, you can jump on that and make a big point of it,” he said.
