      Why aren’t you so noisy during primaries?

      Oh that’s right, your true intentions are masked by bullshit.

      So you’re saying that Jill Stein, the Russian asset who is actively working to get Donald Trump elected president, represents you and your group?

        They need to earn votes.

        The Senate investigated that dinner and found nothing. Everything you don’t like isnt always Russian

          Online trolls from the Kremlin-backed Internet Research Agency used social media to promote Stein’s candidacy during the 2016 campaign, according to an indictment brought by special counsel Robert Mueller against the Russian organization and 13 of its employees. The Russians’ pro-Stein efforts included paid advertisements on Facebook that explicitly encouraged Americans to vote for Stein, according to the indictment.

          A summation of the report’s findings on “comprehensive anti-Hillary Clinton operations” said while the group’s assumed Twitter personas had some pro-Clinton content, “the developed Left-wing Twitter personas were still largely anti-Clinton and expressed pro-Bernie Sanders and pro-Jill Stein sentiments.”

          Likewise, the report said “pro-Bernie Sanders and Jill Stein content” were among the group’s go-to themes across other platforms.

          The tactics and strategies that the Kremlin directed included every major social media platform you can think of — Facebook, Instagram, Twitter — and a few you’d never suspect, including Pinterest, LinkedIn and 4Chan. The hashtags alone tell the story— #MAGA #TrumpTrain #Hillary4Prison #ZombieHillary #SickHillary. Along with anti-Clinton stories, they also pushed out messages against Trump’s primary rivals like Sen. Ted Cruz and former Gov. Jeb Bush. Once in the general election, they pumped up third-party candidates to siphon support away from Clinton with posts including, “A vote for Jill Stein is not a wasted vote.”

          Not everything I don’t like is Russian. But some Russian things, I don’t like.

          The Senate investigation found nothing illegal. That doesn’t mean Stein isn’t trying to help russian interests.

              And trump is in Israel’s too. He’s in every pocket with a pocket book. You know he’ll give israel everything they want and then some. I wouldn’t be surprised at another Kent state over this if he gets elected.

          lol, what a stupid way to say “yes, Jill Stein and her active campaign to get Donald Trump elected does support my values”

            Third parties wouldn’t be a threat to their power if they weren’t shit parties.

            Why don’t liberals vote for Trump and push him left after the election, since that worked out so well with Biden.
