it literally was popping up everywhere on facebook in the months prior and I unfollowed so many people because every time I saw one of these ridiculous stories I would google the protagonist and then if it ended up being fake I would hide that person from the feed for wasting my time, and I found myself doing this over and over again. They had to get this meme established in the minds of the public before they could let Trump employ it on the backlash to their very dubious deeds. They are masters at propaganda like no one else on earth, it is their forte so they knew exactly what to do. I've read several books about the Russian people where it seemed very obvious the general populace is very bewildered about what is fact and what is propaganda.
