My head hurts: Part 83,923.

This is from another message board. I'm not going to link there because these sort of cretins don't need the added attention, but it just goes to show the WTFery when it comes to their attempts to 'splain away Trump-Russia story without implicating Donald Trump:


The existence of the mueller investigation the repeated (and defeated) cries of "Russia Russia Russia" are exactly what Russia wanted.

They wanted turmoil and a divided America. They KNEW how stupid liberals are and their (the Russians) plan worked better than they ever could have dreamed.



Okay, what?

So Russia interfered with the election, even though there's supposedly no evidence they interfered with the election, and furthermore, it was only so that Russia could be blamed for interfering with the election, and that somehow in and of itself would cause turmoil and division in the US, because after all Russia didn't interfere in the election, except that they actually did.

I mean, seriously, . Can anyone provide any sort of defense into this as being supposedly a logical or rational line of thinking? I know people like to play Devil's Advocate at times, but this isn't Devil's Advocate. This is Unhinged from Reality and in Serious Denial Lunatic's Advocate.

Putin didnt want the result to be us screaming “Russia”. He wanted to divide both sides even more. He wanted people to be unsure of what was real and what wasnt.

Trump voters are the stupid ones. They fell for the fake news and believed his campaign promises of draining the swamp and voted for him. We on the other hand were not duped. Eyes wide open.

Seems someone wants to change the narrative. No, it doesnt work that way.
