Subject: RE: BS: No more 'conspiracy theory' talk.
I have to say that at first, I thought the idea that the Russians were interfering with U.S. elections was preposterous, a bona fide conspiracy theory. I've since come to believe that the Russians did a lot to interfere with our elections, using Facebook and other media in an attempt to influence people to vote for Trump. And although I think that campaign was very effective, I think that the people who voted for Trump are so stupid that they would have voted for Trump anyhow.
So, was was it worth all that money Russia spent to affect the U.S. election? Nope, they wasted their money. Americans are perfectly capable of being stupid all on their own.
Although I still wonder how Trump got 3 million votes fewer than Clinton and still won the election. I have to conclude that the Republicans have some pretty clever gerrymanderers.
