Hacking elections is a declaration of war? Then the US should be at war with dozens of countless!

Oh, wait... It is!

While you statement is hyperbole and your logic is Tu Quoque, it's clear the US does some very bad things.

But you can be absolutely certain that anything that Putin is trying to do is absolutely guaranteed to vastly worsen that both inside and outside the country.

If you are going to be throwing out big words, it's not Tu Quoque, it's sarcastic.

The comment wasn't sarcastic at all. It was implying that the US hacks elections and that that is somehow a mitigating factor into how wrong it is for Russia to do it to us.

That's tu quoque. Not sarcasm.
