The Russians are helping Bernie because they think he is the best opponent for Trump who they are REALLY helping.


It’s almost like they are putting their foot in every corner so as to sow as much division as possible.


But that would make too much common sense and doesn’t implicate any particular candidate, so naturally that is ridiculous. Therefore we had better make sure and magnify any involvement of Russian agents to make their efforts as effective as possible

Imagine Russia wouldn't be able achieve their desired disruption if one side didn't get so butt-hurt about some friggin Facebook memes.

Not pointing fingers, just sayin.

Doc, why aren’t you curious as to what form of “help” they are giving sanders?

The stories never actually say.

If you truly worry about Facebook ads, that is silly

Sometimes I wonder how often the work of domestic trolls is included in this purposefully broad definition of “election interference”

If by radical you mean candidates who view our current foreign policy as immoral and dangerous.




The problem with this theory is that Trump has been beating Putin's arse militarily (over 200 dead Russians by Trump in Syria and javelin missiles to Ukraine) and economically (by implementing policy to keep natural gas prices low which kills Putin).

The CIA could care less if you are tough or not against the Russians. The Russians are just a convenient foil to bash any candidate they don't like that has a potential of hurting money flow of foreign aid that they skim off the top.

Yes, believing the Russians advanced the candidacies of fringe candidates is wilder than believing the military intel is dropping crumbs to boomers on a child-porn image board to bring down a world cabal of satanic pedovores.

Interesting how all of these Washington establishment outsiders are getting "help" from the Russians...

Looks like we need a FISA Investigation so we can look into his campaign.

You know, just to be sure there is no collusion going on.

Who says I'm not curious? I'm bothered less by the Russian efforts than by US leadership neglecting the issue, though.

Russia's intent was to sow division and undermine US Democracy. Democrats and the media have been the actually puppets of Putin in carry that water for them.

~Trump colluded to steal the election
~The US election process is insecure
~They impeached the President

That's been their message and their actions for 3 years. Russia could have never dreamed about being this successful at weakening the image of US President.

Russia loves the communist democrat party; and two billionaires $pending million making sure Putin's interests are fully represented.
