The deal here is the "want to believe". People who believed those faked news were voting for Trump anyway.
It takes a lot to switch from Democrat to Conservative, not just some news that you read on the net. Political opinions are not that fluid and don't change easy.
- jessaustin 9y agoThe theory is that it's about turnout. You want to demoralize opponents' supporters and energize your own. I agree with you, though. If Vlad can swing our elections by posting shit on social media, then he absolutely should. All those gun-hating Europeans we hear from constantly should, as well: I'll have to turn in my rifle by this time next year. Any other person, anywhere should voice her own opinions about our elections. That is fundamental to our system of government. When we made a list of important rights, that one came First. The news media liked that, back when they had different concerns than they have now. The preceding notwithstanding, Facebook is horrible.
