(1,908 posts)Posts like this are not valuable to our side. The Russians are still engaged in trying to splinter the progressive left. At DU we aren't allowed talk about the primaries but it seems like every day there is Bernie bashing and attacking of Jill Stein. My experience with supporters of both those candidates is that they are very passionate about certain issues. The environment, income inequality, education quality and affordability, single payer health care, election integrity. These are the people and issue that we need to own. we need to stop driving that wedge. That's what the Russians want to have happen in 2018.
If we want to go after people who didn't vote with the Democrats and had Russian support, let's stick to, say Mitch McConnel. Is PAC received $250 million dollars from sources linked to Russian money. He blocked Obamas agenda for 8 years, not with ideas, but with politics. Save our venom for those that truly deserve it.
