Well, nothing in this not-actually-a-real-denial isn’t true. It IS an old trick, it IS being played again, it IS bad for bilateral relations.

We used to have our very own Russian shill here in TPM. UFG, would you like to weigh in on this? Can you imagine the shitstorm in here if that guy wasn’t banned? And he had a sock puppet too that always happened to be online when he was. The two of them would go on and on about Hillary, hundreds of posts in one thread.

I’ve read TPM’s article and the link to the Reuters source article and I don’t see a denial in there anywhere. A whole lot of misdirection and Palinesque gibberish, but no denial.

Obvious untruthful comments might sound better in Russian than English but I’d bet Russians would say, “Nah, we’re used to that kind of BS.”

You know, there’s enough smoke out there that if the shoe was on the other foot - that there was a Russian version of Trump - Putin would have had him killed by now, and that’s no joke.

Of course he is

A) it’s above his pay grade

B) the possible operators of this gambit are smarter than trump.

Now so are 5th graders (in regards to Trump), but that’s how nature sometimes operates

This is really happening, but it still sounds like the plot of a cheesy summer beach read.

What I want to know is: have the Russians already hacked into the swing state voting machines?

Meanwhile, back on Planet Conservabubble, the case has been made that Bernie has finally alienated “the millenials” and put them up for grabs for Trump…

“We are again seeing these maniacal attempts to exploit the Russian theme in the U.S. election campaign,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters, according to Reuters.

At least this lie is not offensive too. It is much better than what they tell their own people when they lie. Usually they just blame “the gay Russian Jews” for making such allegations.

He’s also back to being an independent, so I read over at the Post.

Oh, OK! I believe what an official spokesman for the Russian government says, especially this guy who looks like Putin used a cattle prod on him last night.

Putin has been financing far right wingers in several countries in Europe, including France, Belgium and many others in order to destabilize the EU. It is not far fetched to think that Vlad would want to meddle in the US too.
