Tribune Editorial: Our democracy is under attack. And Republicans clearly do not care.

“The Russians are absolutely intent on trying to interfere with our elections through the foreign influence.”

“It wasn’t a single attempt. They’re doing it as we sit here. And they expect to do it during the next campaign.”

Apologists and flunkies for the administration — like Utah Rep. Chris Stewart — can spin and distract all they want. And they want to a lot.

But the simple fact is that, even if nothing anyone says is going to get those facts to stick to this president, Russian interference in our democracy was, is and will be a real danger that must be dealt with, at every level of government.
