    Well one of the things that nobody seems to have considered is that Elon has a bot army, an AI, and Twitter he can turn against Trump.

    In addition, and it may or may not be a coincidence, but he’s not as buddy buddy with Putin as he once was.

      I absolutely believe Putin is fueling this. President Vance is a collaborative agent for Peter Thiel and the Heritage Foundation. Heritage is a longtime Putin ally. The question is, will MAGA stop questioning their echo chamber after Trump is put out to rot? That is the gamble, and they are going for it.

        Yeah, but liberals believe that Putin is behind everything, so that’s not surprising

          … because he has a ton of global influence??? He’s former KGB, one of the greatest misinformation diseminators of history. If you don’t believe that, you like consume some of it.

            Ok. That doesn’t mean he’s behind literally everything the way liberals make out. The KGB were second rate information manipulators compared to domestic US operations anyway.

              You are making a strawman argument. I didn’t say I am liberal, nor did I say Putin does everything. I said Putin is likely behind this, because Putin definitely has compromat on Trump. I also said he has global influence, which he does. These statements are obvious, supported by overwhelming evidence, and not so broad as your strawman

                Oh ok, we’re doing this are we? Alright.

                I didn’t say I am liberal

                Argument from silence.

                because Putin definitely has compromat on Trump.

                Proof by assertion fallacy.

                I also said he has global influence, which he does.

                Proof by assertion

                These statements are obvious,

                Ipse Dixit

                supported by overwhelming evidence

                Proof by assertion

                and not so broad as your strawman

                Fallacy fallacy.

                  Those are not examples of me making fallacies, those are examples of me not writing more content than I did. You made a strawman, actively constructing a lie.

                  It is certainly well evidenced, as I said, that Putin is a disinfo maestro. I simply am not doing your research for you.

                  I will not be replying to you point by point because your points are hollow and repetitive. Enjoy fighting for a genocidal autocrat online.

                    Actually a strawman.

                    But anyway, enjoy blaming Putin every time you stub your toe.
