Is this on top of the 1000% increase in Media sMatters trolls that have ramped up their presence in the last month on right-leaning websites like Townhall?

I used to have to block 4-5 a month on Disqus, but now it’s up to 6-8 a day

And even if I did it was only that one night.

And brunch, we were hungry.

If I met her, I mean.

Russian trolls believe the following:

— global warming a hoax
— Syria better off under Assad than rebels
— Hillary Clinton a criminal
— Trump good for USA
— Putin not always in the wrong on every issue
— Soros a jerk (or worse)

Hello fellow Russian trolls.
