The news is a few months old but recently resurfaced with an interview of the Russian trolls by Samantha Bee.

One third of pro-Trump Internet traffic is created by bots and trolls.

So basically one out of three pro-Trump supporters on this forum are paid trolls.

I wonder which ones are paid Russian trolls, I have a good idea which ones they are.

Writing style and subtle grammatical mistakes often give it away.

Right, that's why there are sources included from Business Insider.

... Because you know, using facts and sources is considered "fail to deliver a crazy conspiracy theory" in the right-wing's book.

Their idea of a solid piece of evidence is something that has no basis in fact.

Are you talking about Russia hiring an army of trolls to the tune that 1/3 of online traffic about Trump is generated by the Russian trolls out to help get Trump elected??

I agree, the Russians are desperate to help get Trump elected.

I always wonder how Trump knows there are legions of liberals who are supporting him in secret.

Apparently, the Russians hiding under our beds are informing him.
