It did and still does. And the hatred for Trump by the left assists in their effort to weaken our government and society.
Yep, "it still does" play into Putin's hands, thanks for admitting that.
Mueller's investigations aren't an assault on trump by the left, it's not an "assault" at all. Trump is the one "weakening our government", he can't/hasn't even fully staff the departments and agencies he is responsible for.

But ..... thanks for the rebuttal to the insane garbage.
Your comments are based on the ridiculous thought that "Only we of the left can define Russian bots". Whether that is honest ignorance, arrogant elitism or (your classy term) "feces" is unknown.
As an example, the left either doesn't know or doesn't care that all these efforts to undermine our President plays with into the Russian intention to disrupt the functioning of our government.

Anti-Russian Fake News:
On 3/11//18, Anti-American Russian Putin jailed a man for 3 days for violating a nonexistent law, the prohibition of "graphic images." As the jailed man's lawyer pointed out, the word "graphic" does not occur in any of Anti-American Russian Putin's laws, nor does its logical equivalent:
graph·ic
adjective
adjective: graphic
1. relating to visual art, especially involving drawing, engraving, or lettering.
"his mature graphic work"
synonyms: visual, symbolic, pictorial, illustrative, diagrammatic; drawn, written
"a graphic representation of language"
•giving a vivid picture with explicit detail.
"he gave a graphic description of the torture"
synonyms: vivid, explicit, expressive, detailed; uninhibited, powerful, colorful, rich, lurid, shocking, impactful; realistic, descriptive, illustrative, picturesque; telling, effective "a graphic account of the war"

@rk9152wrote:Chas - you say that the article is factual. O.K. let's assume that is true. In it there is nothing about Russians but reference to inquires and nothing partisan. As to bots, here is a quote, "And it wasn’t bots spreading most of the falsehoods, they found. It was real people doing most of it."
Anything in the direction you try to take it is "manufactured news" based on a biased opinion.
Is that quote supported by empirically proved fact, or is it yet more bogus republican/conservative/trump supporter propaganda spoken earnestly and with feeling from the posterior - as is most trump supporting propaganda?

More fake news from you. Show me one number that is the same. "Racist" is fake news because I never disparaged Mexican genes and race is defined by genes.

I guess you don't understand that the numbers do not have to be exact when you are espousing the same nonsense. So because a number is slightly different, that means your point is actually valid instead of nonsense? I am not a liberal, I am also not a racist. Whether or not you are a racist is for others who interact with you to decide based upon your actions.
I know you don't understand. Your, "I am not a liberal" is fake news
"Whether or not you are a racist is for others who interact with you to decide based upon your actions."
Absolutely, and that is why your attempt to persuade "others" that I am racist by calling me a "racist" is not just hypocritical, it is go to Hell in a handbasket hypocritical.
Is it even possible that you have something to offer on the actual topic? The article is factual, can you post anything to refute that?

Do you truly not understand that the anchor baby that you are calling an illegal is an AMERICAN
CITIZEN? If you don't like it, change the Constitution. The 14th Amendment had to be put in place to stop what was going on in the South (trying to deny ex-slaves their rights). Again, citizens qualify for these programs, illegals do not. Any welfare payments are going to citizens. Just because their parents are overseeing this money, does not mean that the parents have qualified for any of it.
Anything coming out of the Center for Immigration Studies, is questionable at best. The CIS publishes propaganda, usually with no factual basis and usually will not source where they got their "facts". This is quote about their "research" from Media Bias / Fact Check: "Reports published by the CIS have been widely deemed misleading and riddled with basic errors by scholars on immigration; think tanks from across the ideological and political spectrum; media of all stripes; several leading nonpartisan immigration-research organizations; and by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The organization has also drawn criticism for its financial and intellectual ties to extremist racists."
Welfare to anchor babies is money entered into the same pot as their illegal parents. Morally, the parents should pay 100% of the cost of their children. I am going to vote accordingly..
Incidentally, all of those non-anchor "dreamers" or whatever catch phrase you to call them, should sue their parents, in Mexico, for spoiling them.
You need to look up the definition of "American Citizen". The money may be included in the same pot as the illegal parents, but the illegal parents do not qualify for any payments.
If you want to make arguments against welfare, or the 14th Amendment, you be better served sticking to the facts.
