russians hired 1000 trolls to post anti-clinton news in key states

[Landon Caeli]

And I'd bet real, folding money i could name at least two active here.

I think the left pays trolls to tie Trump to Russia because they know it's the best way to get the conservative bases feathers ruffled and to turn on him.

Russia, like every major power, disseminates propaganda internationally. You find this somehow remarkable?

Excuse making for a foreign power intervening in our election? Wow, just wow.

 

[Landon Caeli]

...We have enough manufactured journalism coming from the left, that our will to care about this is exhausted.

Remember Trump the racist, dictator, who is in love with his own daughter..? So why should I care about this?

Guilty? Are you implying that it's a crime? One doesn't "complain" about foreign influence over internal politics. That solves nothing. Its a question of what one does about it. Anyways, if foreign influence is such a concern, Israel has been doing that through AIPAC and the ADL for decades. Why haven't we started there?

Both of those are American organizations. Spammers hired by Russia are not.

Excuse making for a foreign power intervening in our evolution? Wow, just wow.

Evolution?

Are you a Nationalist all of a sudden?

If Russia wanted to interfere they could have reminded the sheeple that Hillary sold them 20% of America's uranium and the Clintons benefitted from that personally. Not that the left cares about the rule of law, but treason and bribery do ruffle some feathers.

Why do some people have such little trouble embracing and propagating lies?

 

[KWCrazy]

Except that's not true...

Based on what... you're guess?
It is a fact that Hillary signed off on the transfer of 20% of America's uranium.
It is a fact that Bill Clinton got two speaking engagements at 200% of his normal rate.
It is a fact that the Russians donated a million dollars to the Clinton Global Money Laundering Initiative.
You'll gor old and die before CNN ever reports these facts, but they're out there.

Evolution?

I think it's perfectly clear that my autofill typo was supposed to be "election".

 

[KWCrazy]

So...should Nixon have been impeached? Should his men have gone to jail? Weren't they just trying to 'shine a light'...?

America owes an apology to the family of Richard Nixon. Nixon lied under oath. So did Bill Clinton, admittedly. He obstructed justice. So did Clinton, admittedly. Nixon resigned in disgrace. Clinton is a rock star in the Democratic party.
Now, which party suffers from a lack of character?

 

[Landon Caeli]

how can people deny this is happening? both parties agree...burr (R) is also stating that the russians are actively trying to influence french and german elections...

The pains of a globalized world. Get used to it.

Uh-huh. Any evidence f this theory?

 

[crossnote]

one interesting thing that has happened is that GOP members have admitted that they have been "the opposition party" for the past 8 years and that they are going through "growing pains" as they "learn" how to become a governing party again.

Paul Ryan made that comment and another prominent republican made that comment on Morning Joe MSNBC the other day.

Kinda makes you think... GOP as party has done' nothing but complain and naysay, so much so that they have become professionals at it and can't seem to do much else...

Personally, I feel that GOP types really are happier when they aren't in charge. It is so much easier to talk big and nay say and criticize...

Well of course, as I recall it is Bush's fault!

Some of you are like babies...

"Why did you eat my cake?"
"Waaah, he ate some first!"

Evidence..?

 

[Rion]

This has been the accusation for a long time.

Muh Russia

I wonder how many people on this forum were, or still are, russian shills.

But hey, at least they aren't supporting an armed coup of a president they disagree with (yet).

 

[bhsmte]

I dont think, the hiring of trolls to post things on the internet, has been lost on either party, for quite sometime.

Allegedly, Russia was behind the leaking of some internal emails that embarrassed the DNC. Of course, it doesn't matter whether it was Russia, China or Satan himself - the emails are what they are, and there is no reason to wish the American people to have been kept in the dark about them.

Doesn't seem like a lot to be having a fit over. All the Wikileaks showed was that the mainstream media was in collusion with the DNC, something we've known for decades. Oh, and that some people use strange references to pizza.
