One good thing about that Troll attack. We know what the Trump "message" will be...

Namely: Democrats will "defund the police" (ecilop eht dnufed). But I guess that was already clear from today's right-wing propaganda.

I'm rubbish at anagrams, but looking for "tricks" in gibberish comes from the tricky Times puzzles.

They're trying to make it look like we don't want to openly say "defund the police," even though that's what we want.

Maybe my interpretation gives them too much credit for being subtle, but from what I've gathered, the professional trolls use subtle methods.
