I often find myself smirking about all those people who fell for the lies and character assassination of Hillary Clinton. Have they yet faced the fact that a lot of that crap they swallowed whole about her was yet another famous Russian invention? Hey, deplorables - how does it feel to have gotten ROLLED by the Russians? You fell for it face-first. You swallowed it without even bothering to chew. You were nothing but a Russian stooge. A mark. Good Grief did you get used. You must be SO proud...
