It might have in 2016 but everyone knows who Julian Assange is now, and he is not our friend. He can go eat a steaming bag of dog shit.

It will prove the Russia collusion if he even mentions wikileaks.

Harris isn't Hillary...this isn't a normal election cycle..their 2016 go-to playbook reads more like a comic book..we're on to them...Russia, bots, Wikileaks..and we stopped playing nice...

I wanted to discuss it with like minded posters.

I didn't link to it but I didn't do it. Wikileaks did.

We need to be aware of what is going on on social media and what 'the enemy' is up to.

I'm not here for the BS this election. I have zero tolerance for it. Anyone who brings propaganda over here will be placed on my ignore list.

... by itself, this stuff won't work as well. Voters have heard so much... They need to find a way to make dirt turn a vote. I think they are going to have a tougher time. They are only going to make a certain Trump voter more certain = no gain.

I guess they will need to try to suppress and cheat... which has got to be their main way to get votes... That's where we need to watch them.

Harris will tough, and more popular as they attack her!

They like to portray themselves as independent non-ideological truthseekers, and in the past many were.

But in recent years they've become ideologically alt-left/alt-right ... basically losers who resent the success of women, PoC, etc.

Thus there is no way to trust the authenticity of anything they put out, and no reason for any credible media outlet to cover it.

They only started coming out of the woodwork when Obama was elected. They were always ideological. They just seem to lay low when Republicans are in charge.
