Fake news. Had nothing to do with electing Trump.

Trump haters are so distraught these days.

Baloney... it was to get clicks and that’s it. Russia is about money. Clicks = money.

Hillary and the DNC has spent far more on the fake dossier than the Russians did on FB ads.

They probably spent more during their illegal collusion with PACs during the campaign too.

I think the “ideal” election result for the Russians would have been Hillary, their paid lackey, winning the Electoral College and Trump winning the popular vote leaving Hillary as a unpopular president resented by the population.

The black vote is essential to the survival of the democrat party. Blacks vote over 80% for the Democrat party. The democrat party must keep racial hatred alive to survive. The day this hatred dies is the day the democrat party dies.

The democrat party fans racial hatred each and every day as it is necessary to their viability. The real hell of it is, their policies have caused the disintegration of black families and also white families of the same socioeconomic class.

Today the democrat party is basically Marxist such as Maxine Waters and a few others that are socialist lite. The socialist lite are an even greater danger as they give a bit of legitimacy to the democrat party. If ever in ascendancy these socialist lites would turn hard core left.
