(16,950 posts)are really on the fringes of credibility. You keep substituting your personal animus or "what about her emails" to try and deflect from the facts that we know from the Mueller investigation -- who harmed Hillary and why and who was helped by the Russians. Today's news shows just how much that whole email situation was hyperinflamed and overanalyzed by the FBI, and used as fodder to discredit her, which is against bureau protocol. You should watch Rachel Maddow's show, or I guess any current news shows. There is so much redeeming information about her emails that I just wouldn't bother typing it all.
Of course social media was the Russian's method to amplify negative propaganda about Clinton. We know that. It wasn't anything from 2004 or whenever. It doesn't matter what you researched before or who hated Hillary from this or that. The subject at hand is the current Mueller investigation and indictments that show Bernie's campaign (and Stein) was helped by the Russians because of his attacks on her. Trump copied Bernie's attacks, so of course his attacks are what harmed her. Read the Mueller indictments. Trump is a con man, and he copied Bernie. What does that tell you?? It must be nice to freely malign Hillary and blame her for everything, but I know that I have to be careful to even link to actual facts about Bernie, so no wonder you don't have to worry about free associations about whatever you want to pound Hillary about. I only wish I could reciprocate, sigh.
It's pretty absurd and unbelievable that the GOP would have thought up Bernie's abstract attacks on her. A supposed Democratic (?) colleague should not be just fabricating character assassinations based on empty accusations meant to promote him as a moral authority. His attacks were only copied by the Republicans because he handed them to the GOP on a silver platter. He was an absolute asset for the GOP and the Russians, and that is why Mueller investigation has the facts on how she was targeted. Because you don't believe this or that -- you don't believe that Sanders' attacks harmed her -- it doesn't matter what you believe, actually. We know from the Mueller indictments that the attacks were beneficial to the Russians, and he knows better than you or I what happened, so we'll have to defer to him. The FACTS show how this campaign with the dark money/foreign money promoted Bernie, Trump and Stein to harm Hillary.
It really doesn't matter that you have so many stipulations, because the whole election looks to be a foreign attack. Those are the facts, and that is why I said your personal biases do not supersede the Mueller investigations. You should read the Mueller indictments. Looks like people are going to jail.
