Did WE? Do you have any links to what you've just posted?
I've just read a stunningly interesting revelation that I'd never heard of before.
Please, indulge me.

Madison avenue who have made their living in advertising for decades. But don't let anything like history or facts get in your way.
Specifically, we find that approximately one in four Americans visited a fake news website, but that consumption was disproportionately observed among Trump supporters for whom its largely pro-Trump content was attitude-consistent. However, this pattern of selective exposure was heavily concentrated among a small subset of people — almost six in ten visits to fake news websites came from the 10% of Americans with the most conservative information diets. Finally, we specifically identify Facebook as the most important mechanism facilitating the spread of fake news and show that fact-checking largely failed to e↵ectively reach consumers of fake news.

They sponsored competing rallys in the same locations so they could spread the divisiveness and rancor. Hoping for fights and riots that would make the evening news and further the message to millions.
Yes they sponsored events on both sides. Their target was US. You and me. It still is. Trump is a tool they used and are still using. They want to destroy democracy. They don't love trump. Who ever insinuated that? They are using him.

Where is all this proof? Trumpkins always talk about proof yet never have any. When you ask for links they provide direct links to FAKE NEWS websites. Talk about being clueless?!
I trust our FBI CIA over Info Trash.

That's because we have parties that can't rise above their parochial interests to speak to the national interest and parties that can't seem to comprehend the precept the Republic comes first.
Exactly. Governments were formed to run a country's economy, and determine how and where money should be spent.
But now that every political party is being forced to take a stance on every bloody social issue, like gay marriage, abortion, transgender rights, etc, the bipartisanship divide just keeps getting worse. And the parties usually just take a side they assume will please their voters, even if that's just opposing the other party for the sake of it...

Less than 8,000 in 3 keys states, and you don't think there are not 8,000 people who could have been swayed by Russian interference? That is foolish.
In a vacuum, yes, perhaps, but in a general election where everyone and his dog is bombarded with politically biased messages (and news!) from every side for months, it is ridiculous to claim such things.
If it was that easily done, you can bet your hiney that the big budget Clinton campaign would have spent that last buck to tip the election in their favor.
They didn't because it isn't.

The only people living in fantasy land and are pathetic are the one's that support this moron of a president and who cannot see how inept this "man" is. He NEVER tells the truth and is in fact a criminal. Who knowingly hired other criminals. Let's not forget this man who claimed " to only have the best people" hired people under investigation for working with the Russians to work on his campaign! That is not a COINCIDENCE. Your Orange god will soon be removed from his cloud throne!
It is known khaleesi..

The words trump has been fearing since the beginning.
The election was illegitimate.
I'm not saying it. Yet...
But that is the results trump fears. That the election was illegitimate.
Says the party that lost......
Ever heard of the phrase "sour grapes"?
Uh, like I said in my OP, if this were trump you people would be screaming bloody murder. There is a good chance the election is not legitamt
