    If you were seeking to maximize likes/retweets, which 2016 GOP primary candidate would you have created weird memes in support of? Clearly Trump, who had by far the most active social media "base." Mueller indictment doesn't even contemplate raw commercial incentives.

        Similar dynamic at play with Sanders, whose following among young voters -- those likeliest to share memes -- boomed over the course of 2015/2016.

        Everyone interested in this issue should read up on clickbait ads, how they generate revenue and how pervasive they are. Without this information people are missing crucial context.

        Doesn’t the indictment mention a $25 to $50 fee per click towards the end?

        I hypothesize Mueller, a System Man (looking out for the self-interests of his class - the Political Class (party affiliation is put aside) - strategically released those indictments in order to shift focus from Trump to unite Right Wing Cold Warriors and the Liberal HRC ones ...

        Into a Unified Chorus of Anti-Russia sentiment. While some sacrificial lambs will be sacrificed for Russia-Collusion unrelated charges - Neither Trump will be taken down, nor will Hillary/DNC Russia connections be prosecuted. Status Qua Ante Protected & Preserved.

        I think the FBI is quite aware that the operation is designed to send traffic to clickbait sites full of ads. The FBI is not concerned with nuance or truth. They get convictions. That's their job.

        I'm Canadian and I may have shared some memes during the election. When will Trudeau accept responsibility for this act of sabotage?
