In fact, that'd be an awfully fucking convenient way of conveying and "laundering" directives from the Kremlin. Not only is it a way of communicating to Trump what Putin wants him to do without him even necessarily being aware of it, by it airing in the middle of shows he watches on Fauxpaganda News, everyone else who exclusively watches Fox News is a candidate for a blind supporter, lending any directive to the President with at least some amount of instant popularity.
Mueller has already indicted an American who was selling basically forged identities to anyone on the Internet, and Russians used them to purchase social media ad space (used for highly-targeted propaganda) while appearing to be Americans engaging in normal, protected political speech [I]before[/I] the election.

[QUOTE=Mr. Scorpio;53177361]The way Trump decides on policy is:
-he wakes up
-something pops into his head
-he posts "we're banning trannies/putting tariffs on steel/banning muslims!" on twitter
He's a hyperactive manchild. He does whatever he feels like.[/QUOTE]
