How could you ask this question? I don't even understand it. Social media is an incredibly powerful tool. People don't read. They'll browse over memes and get their information from them. But monkey see, monkey do. People are easily swayed. Of course disinformation could sway votes...in either direction. But the Russians chose to push an anti Hillary message via social media. Of course that influenced people and changed votes. Just like legitimate political ads do.

His policy "positions" and nutty right wing bias are more important than dead kids. So much so, that he has to lie about other people in order to justify it.

Standing on the back of dead kids, recently murdered, as a means to try to absolve himself of an ongoing investigation is seriously fucked up. But what do we expect from a piece of shit like Trump and his idiot supporters?

So many thoughts:

Firstly, this proves Trump wrong that this is a "hoax" (although we knew this was not.) Mueller essentially got Trump to admit this now. Trump now admits our elections were tampered with, but says he didn't collude.

Again, why does Trump REFUSE to enact sanctions against Russia? Will he continue to refuse sanctions even after this? If so, why?

This latest move makes it difficult,if not impossible, to get rid of Mueller without all hell breaking loose.

Robert Gates is about to flip now too.  (Remember when a certain somebody here said it was preposterous that Flynn had begun to work with Mueller?) Who are these people giving information up on? Santa Claus? They're giving info on somebody higher up the chain. Knowing how high up both Flynn and Gates were, there isn't much further to go up. This is important to keep in mind.

The Russians thought the best way to create chaos in this country would be by getting Trump elected. That's certainly note worthy.

Bannon spent 20 hours be questioned by Mueller this last week.

Russia will clearly do this again, unless our gutless wonders in Congress and the WH take action. Will they now? What will the GOP do to protect our election process?

It's clear that by indicting the Russians, Mueller is also setting the stage for further charges against Americans. The primary focus seemed to be on Russians and social media in this indictment.

Trump said he believed Putin when he told him he didn't interfere in our election. Trump put Putin's word before our intelligence agencies. He's either lying, stupid or both. Either way, unfit to be POTUS.

Ultimately Trump put Russia's interest ahead of ours.  He knowingly lied to the American people the whole time and said this was a hoax. Trump KNEW this wasn't true.

Maybe not a bad idea. The brain isn't fully developed at 18.

This is good...because it's something.

Any good group of lawmakers could roll out a combo of these ideas to address gun violence IMO.
