The Republic should be more concerned about what China is doing concerning elections.
But we get Russia 24-7.
Wonder what China thinks about that?

I guess they influence you if you have Facebook or something.
I don't use Facebook, so I guess I'm safe.

No explanation is ever provided. It just "is" because the MSM says so.

It's Rasputin working his polling place mysticism.
Seriously, if this turns out to be about Facebook bullshite then we need a serious assessment of our intelligence services - again.

At most, possibly, the medias job for them by uncovering corruption in the DNC.

But Bloomberg, after burning through half-a-billion bucks to get to 14% in the polls, needs to mimic whatever they are doing.
They surely are getting better bang for the buck.

The Russians buy advertisements on Facebook and Twitter, despite a lot of people having adblockers. They spent roughly $100,000 total combining all media on the 2016 election (would also include calendar year 2015 run up to the election).
The set up fake FB and Twitter profiles, for and against, all the candidates too. These accounts advocated gatherings of citizens (something something Right to Assemble) both pro and anti, in behalf of both HRC and DJT.
These awful, horrible, all out attempts to influence the stupid, vapid, and self important fools of social media to tune of dozens obviously call for an equal and appropriate response: all out Global Thermonuclear War.

$250k worth of facebook meme ads.

The powers that be certainly think we all are. And they tend to think that way very broadly about society. Basically everyone but them are utterly susceptible to extreme manipulation via simple facebook posts.

then we're better off becoming a communist country. i'm not sure that the people in this country are smart enough to make good decisions on their own.

Russia has obviously been running our elections since 1917.
Why in hell do you think we use a Cyrillic-based alphabet, speak Russian, and are a critically insular people?...

This*^^^is about it. We conservatives usually know when we’re being duped but the Dims have little faith their constituents can tell the difference between truth and disinformation.....that’s a negative byproduct of constantly lying to your viewers/potential Dim voters.
