      Even Clint Watts is not sure Twitter accounts weighing in on NFL debate were RU. But it has become accepted truth. http://abcnews.go.com/Sports/wireStory/senator-russian-trolls-nfl-debate-sow-discord-50135890 …pic.twitter.com/DCzgwvZKrO

      It's like Trump & his divisive rhetoric doesn't exist at all. Instead he has been replaced by a Gizmo that turns everything into Putin.

      The depth of the penetration of our social networks is just now fully coming to light for most, so currently the Gizmo is unavoidable.

      SO everyone will start with an incorrect understanding of what we're learning? Combat disinfo with more disinfo? Um. Nope.

      You have to give people time to process this shit. That's all I'm saying.

      Sure. But lets process the stuff that is really RU shit, and not American shit. You are affirmatively endorsing disinformation.

          And in the process you're not holding red-blooded Americans who're responsible for divisiveness responsible.

          I think you're way way over simplifying things. Why can't it be both? Why can't trump be a dick and russia spread his gospel? 2 problems.

          Which one of those is impacting US health right now? Not RU. But that's the one you want to deal with. You are doing Trump's work for him.

          I mean go ahead and do Trump's work for him in the name of chasing ghosts. I think that hurts America.

          Again you assume I can only think or do one thing. Both are problems. Clearly we just disagree on the impact of one of them.

          Please don't tell me what I assume. You, with your actions, are helping Trump. Good job.

          No. You're propagating disinformation, which makes Putin bigger than he is and absolves Trump. That helps both of them. Congrats.

          Respectfully, I'm very concerned with getting Russia out of our politics. If the issue gets overblown a bit, so be it.
