Seriously -- what does it matter. They have the same job Tucker Carlson, Don Lemon and Rachel Maddow have.......

Why would you pay them any mind -- lol
No they aren't even journalists

What does it tell you about Tulsi Gabbard that her support is coming primarily from Republicans and Russian troll farms rather than Democrats? Answer: people recognize that her candidacy is better for Republicans and Russians than it is for the Democrats.

Meanwhile, Russian TV presenters close to Putin are open touting her candidacy. Again, what does this tell you?

Depends upon the depth in which on reads history and then compares to other countries and their ABILITY to translate intent to action being a key consideration.

Frankly, almost every country has a dismal track record on intent....with the difference being who actually had the power to act successfully upon such intent.

This is not a defense for the US or any other country, just a sad realization if you learn enough and really look around.

I'm not a republican nor am I from a Russian troll farm.

Look at the issues at hand and the powers that want to control the debate, not just some imaginary messenger you have created.

Consider the source and move on.

Yes, that certainly explains everything. Even democrats can now in an instant morph into Russia agents if they get cross with the establishment.

Kinda makes the whole Russian agent thing seem....oh contrived?

But never mind, we can't trust a racist such as yourself.

You don't recall? The Clintons and their supporters were called racist repeatedly in 2008 and here the racists are again defending her.

I mean personally I thought it was stupid political hacking but I guess you have shown me in your infinite wisdom that if everyone can be a Russian troll or agent then well gee golly....I suppose you can be a racist Hillary defender.

Gabbard's been given multiple opportunities to criticize Assad for using chemical weapons and for bombing hospitals. She won't do it. Kinda like how Trump won't criticize Putin either.

Does that make them Russian agents? I don't know, I'd like more evidence. But both of them have odd alignments with Russian interests that need... more explanation, and in Trump's case, more investigation.

The View is establishment propaganda just like anything else on the mainstream airwaves. 99.9% of people that religiously watch The View suck up the drivel and thirst for more. The best depiction of The View that I have seen came from this satirical clip from Mad TV:
