Half of the country thinks the Mueller report exonerated Trump. The body politic has become completely decoupled from reality.

If it's that easy for Russians to influence our politics, why wouldn't the Chinese perceive that there is low-hanging fruit in running general disruption?

And half of the country thinks the Mueller report showed Trump was undeniably guilty. The truth is in between.

See here's this guy proving me right. These nitpickers are extremely easy to fool into doing the work of propaganda.

"While this report does not conclude that the President committed a crime, it also does not exonerate him."

Have you considered that « Russians did it » is by itself propaganda?

[Impassionata]

This is a stupid trap you're trying. See how they misdirect? I'm not saying d0mine is taking Russian money, I'm saying that the Russian money spent getting hooks into Trump leads inexorably to a bunch of chumps like d0mine trying to murk up the water in a shabby pretense of discourse.

the exact same argument can be applied in reverse (and the reverse is much more likely given relative military budgets of the countries).

Listen: If you are a human being: nobody reading it at this point; there is nobody to convince. Just do the math and make your own conclusions.
