~43% of Hillarys twitter followers are "Spam, bots, propaganda, inactive" accounts. 2nd only to Jerry Brown and Trump. Apparently she has a bunch of bots supporting her, so I guess that does make her an expert on the subject, or maybe the whole glass houses and such.

How does that prove that Gabbard isn't supported by Russia/Russian bots?

Oh, right...it doesn't.

Strike one.

Honestly I don't know if she is or isn't or whatever...I just enjoy the attempt at distraction by the Trump side.

I don't see any Russian contributions listed here though...

How about you prove that she is supported by Russia/Russian bots? Or even that she is "being groomed" by Russia? Shouldn't be difficult right?

I doesn't at all.

Nor does your second swing and miss.

No one knew that there was a whole slew of GOP candidates getting Russian money from Rudy and Don's friends until they got busted trying to flee the country.

Strike two.

I actually tried to read this, but it was ridiculous over-the-top propaganda.

Not a single mention of a single fact about the allegations made against Gabbard.  Instead just a typical echo-chamber hatchet job on Hillary and the Democrats.

I like to look at sources from both sides to try and get a balanced view on things.  I can deal with "spin" of facts, but I can't deal with a total lack of any facts at all.

I urge everyone NOT to vote for Hillary in the upcoming election.

No chance of locking her up though. Unless 30,000 deleted emails turn up in the Ukraine, the Benghazi bonus has been put to bed.

Ok, now prove you're not a witch...


I'm with you...being asked to prove the absence of something is silly.

You guys are rich in your "the Right is obsessed with Hills slant". The thread was started by one of the most extreme Left alts in this forum. If we left it up to the Right to bring up Hills in this forum it'd be pretty quiet. But don't blame folks when she's brought up and folks point to BS.

Extreme alt left Balls forced "the Right" to respond? 

Nothing wrong with "bringing up" Hillary. 

Informative when it triggers what folks "know" about her.

Remember when 2020 Democratic candidate Tulsi Gabbard went on an “unhinged” “outrageous tweet storm” after Hillary Clinton suggested in a podcast that Gabbard was being groomed by the Russians for a third-party run to split the Democratic vote? Well now Hillary Clinton spokesman Nick Merrill is claiming that the New York Times got it wrong, and Clinton had actually said Republicans, not Russians, were grooming her as a third-party candidate.

That’s kind of a big mistake.

Nick Merrill@NickMerrill

On Friday, the NYT did a piece about a podcast Secretary Clinton did with David Plouffe. They incorrectly quoted her saying that the “Russians” were “grooming” a candidate running in the Democratic primary. They rightfully fixed it to reflect that she was taking about the GOP.

Merrill’s thread goes on a bit, but we’re most concerned with the New York Times’ conflation of Russian and Republican.

There is no correction appended to the story online? (I am not arguing with you, I can see in the Wayback Machine that it was changed between 18 Oct and 19 Oct.) Has the NYT acknowledged the change?

In the history of this forum no one has been forced to respond, but we are all free to share our thoughts on threads created. I just find the "Right" obsessed will Hills narrative being pushed by you and others in this thread to be hilarious given who started the thread. 

Of course there's nothing wrong with bringing up Hills, but you might be addressing the wrong people who seem to have an issue with it.

Let's follow the logic:

Poster A starts thread about Hills

Poster B points out how ridiculous comments are

Poster c stats Poster B is obsessed with Hills.

Who stated anyone was "obsessed with hills"?  That's your rather imprecise gloss.
And there is more than one "poster B", and talking about more than "comments."

Who are the "right people" who have a problem with Hillary, if not "the Right"?

But it's ok if they do. Amiright? 

[Mike M (the other one)]

Hmm so Hillary said Russians, but meant Republicans...
Kinda like her whole campaign. says one thing, but really meant something else.
Billy even warned her she's gonna lose, but she's a stubborn one.

I had thought we had seen the last of her, but guess she just won't stop. She'd like the energizer bunny.

But I don't care about her, nor am I obsessed she was a waste of Dem time then and is even worse now.

Hills needs to take a lesson from Queen Elsa and let it go.
