The rich and powerful PLACE "their people" into office so they can make laws and regulations that will benefit themselves.

You THINK you had a choice when you voted...even the primaries were rigged...ONLY bought and paid for D or R candidates have a chance because they're ALL bought off...even Trump.

Speaking of rich guys. We now are hearing about all the fake followers of Trump. They are for the most part....BOTS and he knows that and uses them. More on that later but to rich guys...

This system of using bots to deliver FAKE NEWS, as Trump followers are doing as we speak....and of course he tries his best to keep you away from the media and FACTS.

"There is plenty of intelligence to suggest the bots are part of coordinated attacks on international elections and against pro-Democratic leaders including French President Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, performed by hostile foreign networks and even spy groups. And yet, at the same time, it isn't immediately clear where a specific bot comes from or what its creator’s true intent was when building the computer software. That's a debate that could wage on for years on end."



"But many of those bots appear to have one common and undeniable goal: to protect and defend the 45th president of the United States."

This is and was a Russian tool.......

"A steady stream of Russian propaganda and fake profiles infiltrated social media and the web well before the 2016 presidential election, with many experts saying propaganda bots first took aim at the U.S. in 2014 or earlier. "The Russians have used social media-driven information campaigns to discredit the U.S. for years," Clint Watts, a senior fellow at the Center For Cyber and Homeland Security at George Washington University, said during a testimony provided to the Senate Intelligence Committee in May. "Facebook and Twitter remain littered with pro-Russian, Western-looking accounts and supporting automated bots designed to undermine the credibility of the U.S. government."

Donald Trump's Twitter Bots Are a Fake News Army Taking Over Facts

"Twitter has been one of Donald Trump's favorite tools ever since he first started running for president, so it's no surprise that his account is closely followed by millions of users, and his every tweet is parsed for intelligence about his intentions.
More recently, however, attention has focused on the fact that Trump's already large Twitter following appears to have increased substantially, and that many of these new followers seem to be "bots" or automated accounts."

In testimony before the Senate Intelligence Committee earlier this year, former FBI agent Clint Watts described how Russian agents used Twitter bot armies to spread fake news during the election, including using accounts that appeared to belong to Republican voters from the Midwest."

"But several researchers who study social media have also reached the conclusion that something fishy may be going on with Trump’s account.

That something fishy may involve the mass creation of “bots,” a catch-all term for accounts that are automated, meaning a single individual or a team can run hundreds or thousands at time. This is something Trump’s supporters have a history of doing well, far better than his political opponents, according to work by several researchers."

He is a public servant who frankly is above reproach.

The FAKE NEWS campaign...the effort to tear down a REAL AMERICAN PATRIOT by the lovers of Trump is disgusting, at best, but not surprising at all.

The link and story below is about how you people work. I earlier posted a story in todays NY Times showing how the pro Trumpers organize and get out their ANTI TRUTH campaigns.

They care not a whit who they hurt in the process. The USA if far down their list.

Of course I expect the usual trolls to continue with the phony, and frankly ignorant posts, ALL, AND ALWAYS unsubstantiated in any way. So Rubicon, etc., you can begin or better said continue your ANTI USA posts tearing down, again with no substantiation ever our the American media, the entire justice system, the lies about the FBI, the intelligence community, the refusal to accept the President has done more damage to our international reputation that can be imagined are all expected and actually are part of the daily fare on here where everything good about America is demeaned, and where lying is not only endorsed but embraced.

"Instead of seeing Trump for who he is, his supporters create an imaginary figure who does no wrong."

"This is the place where Trump's supporters exist: rather than seeing the president for who he clearly is, they construct an entirely different Trump in the negative space around him. If Comey accuses the president of obstructing an FBI investigation, they will say, "but look at all the laws Comey didn't charge Trump with breaking!" If Comey says Trump lied, they'll say "according to Comey's own admission, here's an instance where Trump told the truth!"

Given that the Trump we know often behaves indefensibly, his supporters simply build a more tolerable version of Trump, the one they see in the blank spaces around him. They view Trump as free-form jazz: his strength is in the things he doesn't say. Even if he actually says them.

Yet the first step in creating a new, more palatable Trump is never admitting he said things he actually said. Prior to the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003, Trump expressed support for the operation; in presidential debate after presidential debate in 2016, he lied, claiming he never had supported the war. Trump knew that if he just kept saying it, his supporters would somehow wish it true. Score one for Imaginary Trump.

For #AlwaysTrumpers, it is also important to concoct fictions about Trump and never back down from them. Trump supporters are required to pretend, for instance, that the president is a tough-as-nails, no-nonsense negotiator who will only get us the best deals – yet the briefest of trips through his Twitter timeline reveals a thin-skinned moral adolescent obsessed with settling scores and being well-liked.

The most common trick in defending imaginary Trump, however, is the practice of "whataboutism" — or complaining about the outrage over Trump's actions when there was a lack of concern over a previous president's similar actions.

Trump shared classified information with Russia during an impromptu conversation? What about the time Barack Obama shared information with Cuba?

Trump doesn't know why the Civil War was fought? What about the time when President Obama said there were 57 states?

On and on it goes, poisoning the reputation of Republicans that would normally recognize that pointing to a past event doesn't excuse a current one. But for those unwilling to defend the indefensible, they cling to such misdirection even if the comparison between the two events is specious.

Trump is, as our parents all once warned us, the "eat your meatloaf because there are starving kids in China" president – he may be awful, but we should accept our fate because the alternative would leave us starving in the streets. (Like the Chinese kids who probably all have jobs making Trump's ties.)

Focusing only on select parts of Comey's testimony allows Trump's backers to fill in the empty space with a fiction more favorable to the president. However, they would be better off focusing on the president that actually stands before them rather than the one they wish they had."

Trump supporters create an imaginary Trump who does no wrong.

Wow, another long tangent by a credible no vote poster. That's real credible.

So thanks for the chuckles.



Deepest Sincere Wishes: ;wave:

Aww, did I hurt the lil' girl's feelin's? Guess I struck a nerve, lil' sissy.

Comey for president? What a joke. Maybe the left will run him in the next election. Hopefully. We need more limp wristed sissies on the left to prove how invalid they are in a REAL American system.
