Which is of course nonsense. The racists went big for Trump before the GRU hack started, will be there long after RU.

True. I just think the racism is one hinge to the connection.

Gorka is a key figure in some ways. He ties the American Islamophobes to E. European haters.

He is key if that's what you want to connect, absolutely.

Part of it, anyway. You could do the same with a lot of other threads, like TPM is doing.

Yes, the mobbed up businessmen is one easy way to understand RU attraction. It's more than that. Then there's the racism.

I guess what I’m trying to figure out is that it’s all tied together somehow. What is that?

Which is why I think Mercer/Bannon are key. They at least claim to want to/be implementing spread illiberal govt around world,

They actually post-date Putin. Hell, maybe Poot has the goods on Mercer. But Mercer/Bannon are, right now, ascendant.

Lots is possible. We don't know enough. That's why there has to be an investigation, dammit! :(

We can be pretty clear on racists then RU then Bannon. And that Bannon is now ascendant. @pastordan

My point: There's no chance now for an investigation of racism or Bannon. But there is, for the Russian connections.

That's why the resistance gotta focus on getting an investigation of Russiagate started! That may turn up other dirt.
