Shocker isn't it? The media and the Left would have us believe that President Trump began plotting with the dastardly Russians years before he even knew he would run for President to, yes - run for President! Clever people these. Never mind that it was President Obama who was caught on an open microphone during the 2012 election telling the Russian ambassador to relay to his bosses to hang in there because he would have more "flexibility after the election." Then there was Hillary who pushed the big red "re-set" button for U.S. - Russian relations in a PR stunt, then ran a farmer's market for espionage hackers with her computer server in her bathroom at home with all her email as Secretary of State, but hey, we don't want to confuse anybody with the facts. The narrative, though, is starting to fall apart rather quickly now.
Case in point: Ron Goldman, VP - Advertising for Facebook was interviewed on television this weekend and said this:
“The majority of the Russian ad spend happened AFTER the election. We shared that fact, but very few outlets have covered it because it doesn’t align with the main media narrative of Tump and the election,” he said. “The main goal of the Russian propaganda and misinformation effort is to divide America by using our institutions, like free speech and social media, against us. It has stoked fear and hatred amongst Americans. It is working incredibly well. We are quite divided as a nation."
It is working indeed and predictably, Goldman has caught flak from the Left for blowing the whistle on their disinformation campaign.
Here are some further facts that have emerged about the "brilliance" of the Russian meddling. They spent a total of $46,000 on their social media ad buys and targeted solid blue states for the most part where a huge majority of voters had long since decided to vote for Hillary. Awesome political strategy to take the election away from the Woman Who Would be Queen.
Did the Russians meddle? Yes. Was it right to do so? No. Were the Russians stupid and incompetent and of no effect? Yes. But, any port in a storm in the quest to neuter President Trump and kick him to the curb. As Abraham Lincoln said,
That is precisely what we are seeing in the intense and vicious continuing campaign against Trump and anyone who believes in this country of whatever color or creed. The Left wants a dictatorship and they intend to get it - they know it's really for our own good even if we don't.
