Originally published at: Russian Disinfo Sites Echoed Trump’s False Narratives About Non-Citizen Voting

Russia, Russia, Russia or when malignant narcissism meets willfully stupid.

There are things worse in this world than people who like being fooled but few things more corrosive.

Remember when the Repubs despised the Russians and accused the Dems of being “Red”? Ah, the good ol’ days, to wit (re: Helen Gahagan Douglas):

In 1950, Richard Nixon, then a 38-year-old first-term Congressman from that state, high on red-baiting, ran for the United State Senate. His opponent was a 50-year-old (“but still young looking,” according to the New York Times) three-term congresswoman. Yep, Ms. Douglas.

Their race broke all previous records for spending (on his side) and vitriol (almost all on his too). This, after all, was where Nixon first earned his moniker “Tricky Dick,” in honor of his countless shenanigans (tossing her leaflets into the Pacific, calling off her rallies) and the dirt he threw at the elegant Ms. Douglas.

“She’s pink right down to her underwear,” he denounced. That comment, his use of pink paper in a flyer about her record, conspired to land her an undesirable moniker of her own: The Pink Lady.

Well they could’ve saved themselves the trouble and just emailed the article to the NYT, who wouldn’t think twice about printing it. Sometimes the simple solution eludes people.

The GOP had to loosen the laws to such a degree to maintain power in our democracy that they invited every foreign actor into our country like it was a free range. Like the settler days, but for shites.

The GOP has to go. They are using a fundamentalist religion to hold on to power, and that religion has radicalized 10s of millions of people, using cult tactics, to hate everything America stands for - they are the enemy.

Donald Trump has announced that if he wins, he will lift sanctions on Russia and Iran.

This is why Putin was paying millions to Republican influencers. He’s bought control of Trump’s party.

And TCF will instantly end all support for Ukraine if he wins.

Putin spends a trivial amount to get TCF reelected, gets massive ROI.

Also someone is spending :moneybag: to keep DJT above $12.00. odd that.

Why does the caption under Steven Millers picture say:

Senior White House Adviser Stephen Miller

Instead of TRUMP Senior White House Adviser Stephen Miller. For some it might even be better if it made clear that TRUMP is no longer president.
