The Truth Behind the Trump/ Russia Conspiracy Theories
IWB ^ | Gabrielle Seunagal

Posted on 05/12/2017 7:18:14 AM PDT by davikkm

Since the election and victory of President Donald Trump, Democrats and liberal elitists have latched onto the unfounded theory that Russia was somehow responsible for hacking into American voting machines and rigging the election in the President’s favor. Despite the overwhelming lack of evidence, the Left insists that the President must have some kind of connection to”the Russians”. During the 2016 Presidential election, Hillary Clinton asserted that Putin wanted Trump to win the Presidency. Interestingly enough, when leftists believed that Clinton would win the election, they dismissed all claims of any election fraud or tampering. Since their epic defeat in November, they have changed their tune considerably.

Even after former President Obama wiretapped Trump Towers during the soon-to-be-President’s campaign, there was no evidence or information linking President Trump to Russia, Putin, or the like. It appears as though radical leftists are incapable of grasping the simple fact that President Trump rightfully won the votes of the American people. Hillary Clinton recently declared Russia and former FBI director James Comey as responsible for her loss. She claimed Putin interfered to ensure Mr. Trump’s victory and later cited sexism and misogyny as the forces that led to her defeat in November.

rest:
This very mentality is why Clinton lost; it had nothing to do with Putin or the Russian government. Donald Trump won the 2016 election because, unlike Hillary Clinton, his policies were feasible and would engender the rise and prosperity of this nation. Additionally, his message and campaign slogans inspired and lifted the spirits of the American people. He was not plagued by an alarming plethora of corruption, scandals, and lies. Donald Trump proved over a course of years that he was effective and successful when placed in leadership roles; Hillary Clinton failed to prove her leadership capabilities on multiple occasions. Collectively, this is why Donald Trump emerged as the victor.

Ultimately, the Trump/Russia conspiracy theory stems from sore losers and sour grapes. If there was solid and concrete proof of Russian interference in the 2016 election, then perhaps the matter would be worth discussing. Unsurprisingly, no such evidence exists. One would think that the wild theories and blatant accusations would gradually cease to exist after the election, but sadly that is not the case. It appears that liberal elites and leftists still have yet to learn that their policies and actions engendered their downfall in November.

Its amusing that the press and FBI are digging so hard to find evidence of collusion between Trump and Russia, while ignoring people who are actually in bed with Russia. The Podesta brothers, for example, key members of the Clinton inner circle, and the Clintons themselves. Bought and paid for.

And, of course, no one and I mean no one is interested in looking at who is in bed with the Saudis, or the Chinese, or Ukraine. Between the Saudis and the Chinese you are talking half our government. When they accuse Trump of being a Russian asset what they really mean is, he isn’t on the Saudi payroll.

As usual, it’s the liberals who always accuse others of doing what they are doing/ have done. It was always Hillary in bed with the Russians since their support of the Clinton Crime Family Foundation, her silly reset button, and Barack Hussein and his “flexibility.”

If her stuff weren’t on an illegal private unsecured server, it never would have been a problem.

What is this newbie OP doing, re-printing the entire article in a post to his own thread of the same article? This is a pattern with this OP, in all of the threads he has created, going all the way back to October 2016, his join date. His “comment” post always begins with the word “rest:” followed by a reprint of the complete text of the article.

We all know the reason for requiring a URL address to an article when creating an FR thread is so Freepers can access the article and read it for themselves. So WHY would the OP re-print the entire text of the article in a “comment”?

Looks to me like this may be a “bot” set up for payment for the repetitive hits it gets as a result of re-posting on FR, also for some kind of return to the OP if an article’s text is re-printed as part of the creation of that new thread.

Won’t be the first time I’m wrong in a posting on FR, but this thing smells like a set-up to me.

Sorry for the interruption.

It will not be until the entire Democrat establishment is in jail that their attempts to divert attention from their criminal activity end.

There are no repetitive hits made if the rest of the article is posted in comments. If people don’t have to click through to read, no clicks = no revenue.

Exactly! Thank you. Tony Podesta failing to register as a foreign lobbyist during the campaign for Sberbank (who handled UraniumOne purchase), as one minor example.

Further, I have believed for some time now that the entire Russian Hacking narrative is an Obama cover to obfuscate illegal surveillance of Trump/associates during campaign and immediately following the election, while they still had direct control of the intelligence gathering apparatus necessary for that surveillance - IOW - gather as much illegal intel as possible while there was still time. This swamp can't get drained fast enough.

He’s doing that so as to provide the full content here
so that people don’t have to click on his blog.

Works for me, more power to him.
