Lead from the front and don't collude with Russia. Hell, not colluding would have been good enough probably. Then he isn't compromised by conflicting loyalties. He could be the Commander-in-Chief without fear of getting busted.

Okay...

So in order to ensure Democrats aren't swayed by Russian influence on Twitter, Facebook, Reddit, etc, to vote green party instead of the Democrat like they are supposed to, Trump should "stop colluding" with Russia? Did I get this right?

No. What you're doing right now is attempting to frame my words in such a way that you can deflect from the argument at hand and attack minutiae which you've largely made up. I'm not going there with you.

I said let's go ahead and say Alyssa Milano is right and that the green party votes would have went to the Democrat if it wasn't for that darn Russian meddling. I then asked what your solution is to make sure those pesky Russians don't meddle and ensure those Democrats remember to vote Democrat like good little boys and girls from now on, and your answer was Trump should stop colluding with Russia. This is exactly how the last few posts played out, why do you think I'm framing your words to deflect away from the argument?

I will say that it is VERY telling that Republicans have been railing about the need to secure our elections to get these laws passed but then did NOTHING about our elections being attacked by Russia.

The priority was never to protect our election integrity. It was- and is- "turnout control". i.e. An attack on our democracy from within.

And it's sick.

I'll repost the conversation for you and highlight the moment where you deflect.

How is that a deflection? That post was in direct response to your previous post where you talk about Russian meddling. Then to avoid this whole "Were the green party votes the result of Russian meddling or not" I go ahead and give Alyssa Milano the benefit of the doubt and say sure, the green party votes were due to Russian meddling. So how do we make sure those green party voters, which apparently came from Democrat voters according to Alyssa Milano, aren't influenced by Russian meddling and they vote Democrat?

It seems you're the one deflecting at the moment. Why?

Okay great. So your answer to the question of how we stop Russians from meddling and prevent them from convincing Democrats to vote green party instead of Democrat is for Trump to stop colluding with Russia.

Strange answer but okay.

TGO: Ok let's pretend it was Russians. What do we do to stop it?

soywolff: Well what you don't do is collude with Russians!


This is why we're always laughing at you.

If it was Russia's fault that the republican won the election, then why would they be giving votes to a green party candidate instead of the actual republican they supposedly colluded for?

Brutal, but true.
