Russia Didn't Interfere in US Election to Help Trump, but to Destabilize America
Forbes ^ | July 2017 | Paul Roderick Gregory

Posted on 12/01/2017 9:24:32 AM PST by GoldenState_Rose

We have reached the stage I warned about three months back. Vladimir Putin is now in a position to destroy the Trump presidency and wreak untold havoc on the American political system. His disinformation specialists can make up virtually any story they wish of Trump’s cooperation with Russia, and the anti-Trump media will accept it as gospel truth. Putin will get his wish of a weakened and embattled American president and an American political system in paralysis. He will continue to feed the story to make sure no resolution is possible.

The ironical outcome is that the real collusion may be between the enemies of Trump making an alliance with Putin to weaken their own country, all in order to overturn an election outcome they despise.

I question the premise that Russia interfered in the election.

so far nobody’s published any credible evidence of any significant Russian interference in the USA election.

and nobody’s prosecuted SorozNazi or gone after the DNC/Obama/HilLIARy/DWS yet for the reported $200 million of illegal foreign money seeking to buy the election from Saudi Arabia and other nearby Muslim dictatorships

That was my thought as well, as soon as I read the headline.

I keep hearing that they did it, but I have heard zero details. IT’s like saying someone is a bankrobber but never saying what bank or when they did it.

I have to ask, when doesn’t Russia, or the US for that matter, interfere in elections of other countries?

Mexico did more to interfere in our election than any other country.

Exactly. That premise has been proved in the same way that Hillary's Uranium One deal has been debunked.

False premise right off the top, Russia did not interfere in the US election, and those charges are projection by DemoRat Crony Capitalist shills who know that the DemoRats are the socialist entity that interfere in foreign elections.

Fake News planted under a False Flag by America hating Fascist Globalists.

Nice try.

The Kremlin has been running disinfo attack ops for nearly a century. It’s wishful thinking to think KGB Vlad is any different.

If anything, social media gives Russia “sock puppet” tools to deliver propaganda, same as any other group, Democrats, BLM, Soros, etc. In general, it’s balanced noise that only a fraction of voters is exposed to anyway.

(title) :" Russia Didn't Interfere in US Election to Help Trump, but to Destabilize America "

And Mueller Still Refuses to See the Difference
between "Help" and "Destabilize".

[[We have reached the stage I warned about three months back. Vladimir Putin is now in a position to destroy the Trump presidency and wreak untold havoc on the American political system.]]

Well goonie googoo- I think your crystal ball is cracked, or cloudy or sumthin because guess what? Speaking with russians isn’t illegal, and doesn’t amount to making one’s presidency vulnerable to ‘the sky is falling’ ‘hair pulling’ alarmist hyperventlism

[[His disinformation specialists can make up virtually any story they wish of Trump’s cooperation with Russia, and the anti-Trump media will accept it as gospel truth.]]

Pssssst- there’s still the little issue of PROOF goonie googoo- Let us all know when you have it- use your crystal ball to foretell where the proof is- We’re all waiting on pins and needles

They didn’t interfere. That’s a Hillary fiction she launched officially the day after she was soundly defeated. The Russians aren’t coming after us. Mostly they want to be left alone and that’s about it.

Anyway, all of this is pretty rich to watch the US government fulminating that Russia is trying to interfere in OUR domestic affairs.
How the people in the swamp claiming this don’t immediately explode into flames of hypocrisy, i don’t know.

All I heard was Russian entities bought advertising on FB and other social networks.

Meanwhile Facebook gave something like 40 million dollars worth of in-kind work on Hillary’s behalf.
