"Officials in Moscow looked at the 2016 U.S. presidential race and asked, 'Which candidate would we like to have sitting in the White House? Who will help us achieve our goals?' And they chose him. From that moment, they deployed a system [of bots] for the length of the elections, and ran him for president," former Mossad chief Tamir Pardo told the audience at the Marker's digital conference in Israel on Monday, where experts gathered to discuss online disinformation campaigns and bots.
"What we've seen so far with respect to bots and the distortion of information is just the tip of the iceberg. It is the greatest threat of recent years, and it threatens the basic values that we share—democracy and the world order created since World War Two," Pardo noted, according to Haaretz."
My comment: Russia may as well have attacked the US with bombs. The damage that has been done by Donald J. Trump to our nation is as all encompassing as if they had. Our entire system both domestic and foreign policy has been overturned. If, finally, the curse of Trump is electorally eradicated it will take years to undo. Send this to whomever you choose and make sure to tell them to vote blue up and down the ticket!
