I posted this back when Trump was "elected"

To a liberal FB group I follow. I still believe this.

Lets just get something straight here. I've already seen a bunch of trumpernuts saying things like "I wasn't influenced by Russia, I was going to vote for trump anyway." Maybe. But these are the same people sharing fake news and information from Russia because it fit their world view. So them pretending to be "smart" for "being for trump anyway" is complete and utter bullshit. They are fucking dumb and we cannot forget that. They absolutely were influenced and they aren't even smart enough (or too proud) to admit it.

I feel like this is especially relevant today.

booth with him, therefore there was no Russian interference. I thought, but was their influence inside your head? There were Russians there.
