And we know they are neither Kamala nor Booker supporters Vegas Roller Jul 2019 #1
Or perhaps they're Russipublican trolls , bots and agents. hedda_foil Jul 2019 #16
Republicans have no skin in this game yet nt Vegas Roller Jul 2019 #20
Certainly they do. The more important intraparty suspicion they can gin up the better. hedda_foil Jul 2019 #25
Not at this stage Vegas Roller Jul 2019 #28
Yes at this stage. You ignore their participation and we lose. They're in .from the start. hedda_foil Jul 2019 #29
Someone else has a bigger motive at this stage nt Vegas Roller Jul 2019 #35
Absolutely they do. The Republicans never stopped Hortensis Jul 2019 #43

I've done some checking of various Twitter accounts I've seen these sort of comments from. highplainsdem Jul 2019 #9
Then American / republican trolls. It's over the top, heavy handed stupidity. ecstatic Jul 2019 #13
I would be thrilled for Joe to use the same level of force that these two candidates send his way... Skya Rhen Jul 2019 #10
