    You know, it is still mind blowing to me that people will share stuff like this (an accusation of espionage based on one Russian Facebook post), and then be surprised, when a lot of people actually believe Trumps “fake news” BS. One of the reasons Trump was able to win is that the Democrats and their supporters completely tanked their credibility with anyone still capable of critical thinking.

    Polling shows most Trump voters would not have voted for him if they were better informed, but of course they won’t be informed if there is no trustworthy mainstream source of information.
