Propaganda,If they can Influence the people then Influencing can move them the way you want them to move and maybe trump would be too easy and that would be desirable.BTW,hasn’t Russia tried to Influence other countries?
Yes, and the United States does it all the time, has been since George Washington was prez. Voice of America is a United States government operated propaganda tool, used overseas.
The question is: How is this really effecting an election? No one from Russia is accused of stuffing ballot boxes. RT is a Russian propaganda tool, operated world wide.
It's admitted by the United States government, before Trump was in the running for President, the last administration spent tax payer money to run ads in Israel against Netanyahu. I like Netanyahu, so I'm not happy about that.
But foreign governments buying advertising in foreign countries is nothing new. When I was a child, I was very much into shortwave radio. Except for some religious broadcast, it was nothing more than foreign governments broadcasting propaganda.
13 Russian nationals charged with not registering as foreign agents, is a whole lot of nothing. Symbolic at best.the left is absolutely devastated that Clinton, the career politician, lost to a jerk from New York. Leftist are a bunch of crybabies, and their frail minds manifest in the frailty of their bodies. They need to get over it, eat a steak, and find a better candidate next time. Hillary Clinton lost the election because she is Hillary Clinton.
Hacked DNC emails show, the party deliberately rigged the primaries against Bernie Sanders. That's the corruption that needs some investigating.
Trump came in with a populist rhetoric, that energized the electorate he needed to win. Trump won cause he was better.
