The indictment charges that some of the Russian suspects interacted with Americans associated with the Trump campaign, but those associates did not realize they were being manipulated.

But they actually indicted the Russians. Not China, not England and not the suspicious four hundred pound person stuck in bed.
Russians. Because it wasn't just a propaganda influence campaign. It was actually aggressive manipulation.
This speaks of a massive intelligence operation by the United States operating within Russia. Muellers arms are incredibly long.
The crime... they talked bad about Hillary Clinton on the Internet?
Facebook general counsel Colin Stretch told a Senate Judiciary panel that content generated by a Russian troll farm known as the Internet Research Agency after Nov. 8 centered on “fomenting discord about the validity of his [Trump’s] election.” That's a change from Russia's pre-election activity, which was largely centered on trying to denigrate Hillary Clinton, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence said in a January report.
Further, the DOJ made clear that the indictment does not allege that any of the interference changed the outcome of the presidential race.
“There is no allegation in this indictment that any American was a knowing participant in this illegal activity. There is no allegation in the indictment that the charged conduct altered the outcome of the 2016 election,” Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who oversees the special counsel probe, said at a Friday press conference.

HEY CULT45 WHY DID PUTIN WORK SO HARD TO GET TRUMP ON THE REPUBLICAN TICKET & ELECTED RESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES????

Maybe you should be asking how the greatest liberal minds and 1.4 Bn dollars was beaten out by online trolls. Pretty sad if you ask me and I'm happy they didn't win because if they can't beat some poorly funded online propaganda, then how was Hillary and the Dems going to fix all the issues in this country? Hell the Dems don't even have a platform to run on yet and the midterms are right around the corner.

Stupidity and ego?
Sounds about right. It may end up landing Trump in legal hot water before its all over with, but I don't think there was anything more nefarious about it, at least to this point.
