Did Michael Moore unwittingly attend an anti-Trump rally allegedly organized by Russians?

[TexasTowelie]

It's no secret that filmmaker and Michigan native Michael Moore is not a fan of our current Commander-in-Chief. Throughout Trump's campaign, Moore was a vocal opponent, appearing at a number of anti-Trump rallies, including one near Trump Tower in New York City on Nov. 12.

No biggie, right? Well, on Friday prosecutors said 13 meddling Russians were not only behind pro-Trump rallies, but anti-Trump rallies as well, including a "Trump is NOT my President" rally in NYC "on or around Nov. 12," according to the indictment signed by Special Counsel Robert Mueller.

It's been widely reported that the indictment claims the goal of the meddling was to "sow discord in the U.S. political system, including the 2016 U.S. presidential election." It reads, in part, "Defendants and their coconspirators used false U.S. personas to organize and coordinate U.S. political rallies in support of then president-elect Trump, while simultaneously using other false U.S. personas to organize and coordinate U.S. political rallies protesting the results of the 2016 U.S. presidential election."

1. The Ruskies fooled a lot of people.

2. How do we know it was "unwittingly" ?

3. Oh, please

Moore would never support Russian Active Measures if he knew about them. That's a pretty offensive bit of speculation you got there. For shame.

4. I think the poster may have meant the organization posing as legitimate American one used

unwitting American citizens, not that Moore or others were unwitting.

Also same day the Russians organized a pro- Clinton rally in NY.

All to sow discord and divisions:
