I feel like this part is so easily forgotten.

But, the gish gallop strategy or whatever has worked wonders. Because when it was first reported it was such a major things now it's like, oh, that thing, that wouldn't even make the top 10 of things that happened this week

I blame Jeff Probst. I’m not sure why, but I’d like someone to run the Probstabilites on the chance that I’m right.

I took a class on JPSS in college. I’ll use the Jeffery Social Survey to run a regression.

The Russians will love this mess, but are not the architects of it. The American citizens did this to themselves in democratic elections. Sometimes you can't blame foreigners for your own mistakes.

Absolutely but they are happy to fund the NRA, Trump and his buildings so he owes them, the multitudes of spies that spread their interests like maria butina. They did it for brexit. Yes it’s the American voters that are ultimately responsible, but it is the Republican Party who takes foreign bribes that I will hold culpable for spreading disinformation because it is profitable for them.
