“Americans are very impressionable people, they see what they want to see. I have great respect for them. I’m not at all upset that I ended up on this list. If they want to see the devil - let them see it,” Prigozhin told RIA Novosti.

Interesting quote from Putin’s chef. Seems about right. The Russian bot network is pretty effective at dividing us.
And the sea will grant each man new hope . . .

As is evident on this board, absent of bots, we seem to do a pretty good job of it ourselves.

This board is pretty tame compared to where the bots are in full force. The news outlets that allow comments are overrun by bots. When you look at the shear number of posts of some profiles its obvious. Disqus, Twitter and Facebook should be able to do something about it. There are physically limits for number of posts a real person can create in a given time period. They currently choose to do nothing. I’m sure the DOD will start enforcing rules if they continue to do nothing

Especially compared to reddit, where at least one poster seems to get their news.

If the Dems win the House and/or Senate, Gump's idiocy won't matter. He and the GOP managed to give themselves a huge tax break, but other than that, no significant legislation even with full control of the government. And all of Gump's EOs can be undone with a stoke of a pen and many no doubt will in due course.

Thank Allah for coequal branches of federal government and presidential term limits.

Do you expect a Democratic Congress, probably far left of center and probably still with a far lower approval rating than Trump, to give people encouragement that putting a Democrat in the White House will be the right thing to do?

I'm saying Gump will be out of office one way or the other and by virtue of his nearly unprecedented ineptitude, just about anything he actually manages to stumbled through will be nullified. The guy is one big clownshow and the Dems just need to minimize the collateral damage.

maybe someone made it up a couple decades ago knowing this day would come...or some other crazy thing that seems totally plausible and in fact highly probable to you while of course being nothing but wild conjecture on your part...



can't wait to see the stuff you come up with over the next 7 years...
