What makes Russia strong right now is creating doubt that our democracy works.


nah, it's creating division and thereby weakening the western block
in the end the election of trump will likely strenghten the eu by showing the negative effects of populism
and you can bet on putin being aware of that

"Argument by copy/pasted wall of text" is pretty shameful
Theres no difference between that and 30 minute youtube videos with no words of your own.

I mean jesus christ, he even bothered to debunk one of the claims to demonstrate how much of a hack the quoted guy was, thats more than I'd bother if you tried that shit on me, I'd just quote you a wall of text from the instructions manual of a vibrator

here is an appropriate response to that posting

I'm seriously so sick of hearing about Trump already; he's a fringe candidate who stands no chance at getting the nomination. He's this year's Ron Paul (gets tons of attention on the internet but loses by a landslide).

Yeah, ppl seemed to be afraid of a domino effect at this time. The break up of the EU due to populism.
The threat is still there, very alive, but chances are that it is going to backfire.

The real question is, after all is said and done, what is it going to take to make a single Trump support admit they had poor judgement?

no he did not debunk any of the claims

instead dismiss all information because it isnt original research thats a good plan

Irrelevant points lol. I guess when you're stomped just run and find some google opinion piece as a response instead of actually attempting to refute something i said. What exactly are the false claims i'v made?

Hurr durr you don't want to spend a bunch of time dissecting a wall of text, i win argument with wall of copy/paste. GG man, no point in wasting my time if this is the game you want to play.


you: Trump's suggestions aren't pro-Russia at all, they're anti-Russia

me: actually they are because as Scruffy points out, Trump's suggestions of A, B, C, D, E, and F all directly favor Russian interests

you: but G doesn't and some uneducated rands think the TPP is bad even though they know nothing about it so he's a hack

/e: If Brexit could happen, Trump elected in the US, then there might be a future for the rest of the EU to break up.
We certainly have our anti EU politicians. With either France or Germany leaving the EU, the power block will be reduced. (/e and a chance of being dismantled all together)
Thankfully that's not going to happen with the Netherlands, who had the first chance to vote after Trump.

Didnt Trump want to get out of NATO btw?
where did he get that idea?

Another Tweet Storm about an hour ago, this one focusing on what is referred to in the Steele dossier as Source E, and the implication that Source E may actually be Boris Epshteyn, a senior Trump adviser during the campaign, transition period, and first two months of Trump's presidency.

No thats not how this works. This is PARD, we reserve the right to drop door.jpg
If you want to make an argument, you make an argument, you don't post a 30 minute youtube video of someone else talking and tell people to 'watch it', you don't copy/paste walls of someone elses text
If you do, you get called out on it.

And I was on a rampage, perhaps I should apologize for that as well ;)
