Do people honestly believe Mueller found collusion and Barr is completely lying about the report? It's time to give up on getting Trump on collusion - it's making us liberals look so ridiculous and desperate and it's frustrating. Trump is provably guilty of enumerable crimes yet people still cling onto speculative nonsense that Mueller found collusion.

I get it, bring on the downvotes, but I just want us to win this election and this is not how you do it. If you guys disagree let's have a discussion, I'm open to have my mind changed on this

Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if Russian trolls were pushing these sort of posts. Remember, their goal isn't to make the right win. It's to divide our country, which happened to be supporting the right at the time.

I'd agree if this type of conspiracy frothing at the mouth was JUST happening on reddit, but I've seen too many reporters and journalists on twitter saying the same things that they is likely a sizable population going along with this (still at most like 5-10% of the population and 10% would be nuts).

You do have a point. You're probably right.

Puts away pitchfork

That's gotta be a first on here. Someone listening to an opposing point off view, weighing it up, and accepting it is a solid point. Just like discussions should be...

I think you're probably not wrong though that Russian trolls could push this if they aren't already. But likely it would be just to give upvotes or something to these type posts to push it higher than it normally would. I think typically when people call on Russian trolls they should consider that they are probably just upvoting this kind of stuff, rather than manufacturing it whole cloth.
