Russia Didn't Interfere in US Election to Help Trump, but to Destabilize America
Forbes ^ | July 2017 | Paul Roderick Gregory

Posted on 12/01/2017 9:24:32 AM PST by GoldenState_Rose

We have reached the stage I warned about three months back. Vladimir Putin is now in a position to destroy the Trump presidency and wreak untold havoc on the American political system. His disinformation specialists can make up virtually any story they wish of Trump’s cooperation with Russia, and the anti-Trump media will accept it as gospel truth. Putin will get his wish of a weakened and embattled American president and an American political system in paralysis. He will continue to feed the story to make sure no resolution is possible.

The ironical outcome is that the real collusion may be between the enemies of Trump making an alliance with Putin to weaken their own country, all in order to overturn an election outcome they despise.

That isn’t exact. I heard something like 89% of all statistics are mide up right on the spot :)

But Moskovitz, one of the founders of FB gave 20 million to the Hillary effort. FB employees gave massive “personal” donations. Hillary claims 250k in official “in-kind” donations. But the big one is from a former Facebook employee saying the company routinely suppressed news stories that might appeal to conservative readers by removing them from its trending list, even if they really were trending.
That was an incalculable donation.

And then there is the REST of the tech industry.

Destabilize America ?
Unemployment at an all time low
Stock market at all time high
Welfare at all time low

Somebody’s data sheet has split coffee on it.

They want to be “left alone” to re-annex all of the soviet republics that got away in the 90s. They’re currently fighting a war of conquest in the Ukraine.

Yes Vaduz, and be sure to contrast Trump’s accomplishments that with Russia’s economic woes, alliances with rogue regimes like Iran and North Korea, declining living standards, HIV epidemic, doping sports system, tensions with Muslim migrants, and demographic crisis and you can see why Putin wants to divert his people’s attentions elsewhere. Can’t fix what’s broken on the inside, so head out and see what damage can be done.

March 2018 = Russia’s presidential “elections”
2024 is supposed to be when Putin actually goes, but wait and see what happens.

The real story is what’s happening inside Russia.

Soros and Putin are enemies but they have a mutual hate for the American republic in common. False dilemma.

“We don’t have to choose between Soros and Putin.”

Duh...You Think?

Thanks for posting this, however.

Even though it is common sense, in the ongoing dialogue on this common sense is pretty rare.

“His disinformation specialists can make up virtually any story they wish of Trump’s cooperation with Russia, and the anti-Trump media will accept it as gospel truth.”

His disinformation specialists ARE the media.

The following are two of the 45 communist goal as read into the Congressional Record on 10 JAN 1963, by Congressman Albert S. Herlong Jr. of Florida:

“20. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book review assignments, editorial writing, policy-making positions.

21. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV & motion pictures.”

‘’’’’I question the premise that Russia interfered in the election.
That was my thought as well, as soon as I read the headline.
I keep hearing that they did it, but I have heard zero details. IT’s like saying someone is a bankrobber but never saying what bank or when they did it.’’’’’

The story was a lie since the very beginning and they are backpedaling it this way removing Trump from it so there won’t be interested parties to continue questioning them. That’s a classic way for a liar to save safe.
