Hannity's up to seven advertisers dropped, now. I'm worried that his cowardly attempt to say how he's decided to respect the family's wishes while also saying he meant every word might mean enough advertisers decided to hang on, but it's Hannity so it's not like there will be any shortage of reasons to tell advertisers to ditch him.

His name was Sean Hannity.

It seemed really obvious even at the time that "online communities" for trump were largely manufactured astroturfing. Both really astroturfing where like russian chat bots were literally spamming twitter. But also that weird internet age phenomenon where a small number of people can dominate a forum in an organized and outsized way by seeming like a lot of people in a way where they aren't paid by anyone so it's weird to call it astroturfing but it's also a manufactured fake thing.

They get extremely upset when it looks like there aren't that many of them and also when it's clear no one likes them. Just like Trump himself.

They believe that their Subreddit has 6 million more subscribers than they actually have and that Reddit is covering this up.

It's so loving obvious Trump personally colluded with Russia, that most of his team knew about it and some of them helped, and that his party were well aware and probably complicit. It's been obvious since last year just from things that were public knowledge. Every week more damning stuff comes out, real things not the Mensch conspiracy theories. It's going to take something like the piss tape for it to matter and probably not even then, where the conversation will change to "why is being friendlier with Russia a bad thing?"

I feel crazy, which is probably the point.

enraged_camel posted:

Yeah, this is the real story imo. A lot of people suspected huge numbers of bots operating on Trump's Twitter account before, but the covfefe thing was as hard an evidence as we can expect to have for it.

The real question imo is who is paying for those bots, and how exactly are they being used to influence public opinion (by liking/retweeting certain posts over others).

Or... is it a simple matter of Trump's immediate family buying lots of followers in an effort to sustain his bottomless hunger for attention and validation? I've said this before: I can totally see Ivanka doing it because she is genuinely afraid of what might happen if her father has some sort of mental crisis over not having enough support.

Recently it's Mark Dice, his meme replies always have thousands of retweets. It's really obvious.

Mark Dice is a humorless, joyless conspiracy theorist, like an Alex Jones without emotion.

Voter suppression is one of those things that's like an open secret where Democratic politicians cannot even imply it's a thing, right? In that Republicans will just start talking about preventing voter fraud and actually it is you who is the real racist.

It feels like it doesn't come up nearly enough when the Democrats are playing with an obvious disadvantage.

I don't see anything serious that wasn't expected in here. The key things seem to be (a) Comey confirming that he offered Trump assurances that he was not "personally under investigation" three times, though what that means is an open question; (b) Trump twice asked him to pledge loyalty to Trump and (c) facts suggesting that Comey was fired for failing to announce Trump was not personally under investigation.

He also testifies he believes that he was ordered to drop the Flynn investigation, but not the overall Russia investigation.

I do enjoy this:
